I've long realized I'm a narrow user.

Imaginary house. Hmm. Myself and my wife well again. Our cats.

Living people I wouldn't mind talking to include you guys, Bloom, Carson, Crowley, Richard Dawkins, Julian Assange, Peter Duesberg. I don't know if I could take a whole slumber party, much less a roommate situation, but weekly meetings in cafes might be neat. Carson's interviews in particular are fantastic.

David Lynch I suspect would disappoint me in person. Might be interesting to watch him direct. Gore Vidal's gone hopelessly cranky with age, and the unpleasant side of Camille Paglia, always extant, took over a while back. McCarthy I think would be very evasive in conversation.

But the great thing about writers is you can talk to the best, most talkative parts of them all day long even when you never meet them, even when they're dead.

You?
