He would probably have been an impossible person to be friends with, but I'd love to have seen one of his cabarets and maybe met him for a short while after. His contempt for so many things and his ability to put them down so cleverly with his biting wit would have made for a great night out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2092475090824666694.post-72191057140129096992011-03-30T12:11:52.959+01:002011-03-30T12:11:52.959+01:00Great song Danny.

"Its simplicity, and its passion for publicity".....where "beneath vintage trees in Tennesse, erotic books are read".<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZ1niLkPaOo&feature=related<br /><br />BTW, that big stainless steel arch in the slide show is taller than the Washington monument or the Statue of Liberty. (Sadly, the Eiffel Tower is a bit taller.) It's the "Gateway to the West." And it's in Missouri!
