I'd be just fine if a book that starts out with brother on brother violence, incest, daughters getting father drunk and raping him, killing of children for laughing at baldness, advocates bashing infants brains out, and torture and execution of the innocent, gets banned... That is a book called the bible.

Steinbeck's advice about writing for Hollywood was to do the job, take the completed assignment to the Nevada/California border, throw it across, and wait.

Someone would come along in a big car, pick up the manuscript, leave, and return later and throw a suitcase full of money over the border.

At that point, he advised grabbing the suitcase and running east as fast as you can.

When I was eleven, I was able to sneak surreptitious glances at Playboy on the magazine shelves in the drug store. Unfortunately, I was really more interested in the comics.

My favorite was Moses, holding the tablets, looking up at this glowing light in the sky, saying, "Let me get this straight. You want us to cut off the ends of our dicks?"

Unfortunately, they remained just tethered enough in this world to aim and fire, and their weapon of choice is remarkably easy to operate.
