I looked in the mirror yesterday. Not only was I disappointed as usual that my reflection was still visible, but I noticed that I'm getting definite white streaks. Acutally, not that definite, since unless it's sun-bleached, my normal hair colour is a sort of dark grey. Makes you think, though. Maybe I'll be like my maternal grandfather and go completely white in my forties. That would be kind of cool, but it means I won't be able to fool people into thinking I'm a student any more.

A similar thing is happening to me -- lots of gray mixed in on the sides, and some on the top. If I can get that Spalding Gray (pun NOT intended) look, that might be ok.

Just as long as you don't go on and on about dumping your longtime girlfriend/wife for the cute young thang next door, with whom you've had late-in-life offspring whose innocently divine/divinely innocent presence has Taught You What It's All About. Gads. I used to like that guy, too.

Oh, I completely agree with you -- he's a dog.
You're referring to his SLIPPERY SLOPE book, I assume. That book was a bombshell; I really wanted to throw it across the room. Got another woman pregnant, and basically dumped his girlfriend of 15+ years.
I think his personal life is screwed-up, yes, but I can't begrudge his storytelling ability. Unfortunately.
