Shithouse rat crazy never goes out of styleSpeaking of autistic geniuses,* God bless my friend J for introducing me to Eric Satie's inimitable writing: I have subscribed for some time to a fashion magazine. I wear a white cap, white stockings, and a white waistcoat....My doctor has always told me to smoke. Part of his advice runs: 'Smoke away, dear chap; if you don't someone else will.'(It should be noted that it was Gerard de Nerval, not Satie, who walked a pet lobster down the streets of Paris.) *Well, we weren't, but Maud was, and the autistic genius I'm referring to is Satie, not J, who is in fact a genius but of the noncrazy, if occasionally cranky, sort. Thank you. Posted by Dana at 02:16 PM

you must admire a man who walked 12 miles to and from paris DAILY just to sit in bars, wearing one of
7 identical mustard yellow velvet suits. man about town indeed.
