me: After his death, fellow writer Gore Vidal described Capote's demise as "a good career move".

Caleb: Had to keep the volume low.
Caleb: Couldn't hear much.

Caleb: Writing a story slugged "JEWISH MEDIA."
me: um

Caleb: About Oliver Stone telling a London paper that American media is controlled by jews.
me: ah, yes
Caleb: But now I can loudly exclaim "God damned Jewish Media" in the newsroom.
me: I think you already could
Caleb: Idiots questioning my broadcast writing.
Caleb: "I'm not sure you used the proper conjugation of this verb here."
Caleb: Faggots.
me: were they wrong?
Caleb: Yes.
Caleb: In the context of broadcast writing.
Caleb: "Firefighters responding to a housefire in Arp today."
Caleb: That's a complete broadcast sentence.
Caleb: But Little Miss Turnip Truck from Oklahoma
Caleb: State doesn't seem to think so.
Caleb: "Smith County firefighters responded to a structure fire outside of the town of Arp at 11:20 a.m. Monday morning after two individuals authorities say are suspects of interest phoned in a report while wearing a white shirt and described as black males between the ages of 13 and 94 years of age."
me: 94, eh
Caleb: "Westbound in their motor vehicles before officers responded to the call arrived on the scene at 11:23 a.m Monday morning and suspicious devices police report lingo."
Caleb: THIS IS HOW I WRITE FOR TV!

Caleb: You're like William Buckley.
Caleb: That's what you're like.
me: We can pursuuuuue that digression if you'd like
me: but let's suspend it for a moment!
