Also, if I recall correctly, freedom's actually just another word for somethin' left to booze.<BR/><BR/>As psychotic criminals go, you seem pretty OK. Probably helps that you weren't a business major. (I was hanging around once while a friend of mine interviewed a novelist. They got onto the topic of unreliable narrators, she started trying to define the operations of the sociopathic mind, and I realized with a start that her descriptions fitted me and most of the people I knew.

It has all been a scramble in the vilest level of shit, watching the world is flat chorus hop up and down about the more and more elaborate thieveries their friends devised. Now they hop up and down cause nothing is left. But, as another sibyl, Janis J. once said, freedom's just another word for nothin' left to securitize. How can one not feel exhilarated? De Quincy, in the fine art of murder, has a character defend the ecstatic sensation one feels watching a fire - and this is a fire! Of course, the FBI profiler and pseudo-scientist extraordinaire, John Douglas, has claimed that you can profile the psychotic crimal by the fact that, for instance, he watches big fires and is irresistibly impelled to masturbate to them.Roger Gathmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11257400843748041639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3260529726656118434.post-10974804105754420252009-03-07T09:14:00.000-08:002009-03-07T09:14:00.000-08:00But did you ever work out the cat thing?
