Who’s buried in Grant’s Tomb?

btw Rob, you can go visit Grant’s Tomb. It’s open to the public…yep, a tourist destination.

“My writer pals and I joke that there are no unemployed writers – only “freelancers.”

Yes, very accurate. I am one.

I hear you about the traveling. I was working on a TV show that required me to travel, and I would be gone for 2 weeks and back in NYC for one. I was so tired of it. I’d come home unpack, do laundry and pack again. All that traveling to exotic locations burns you out.

I meant to say…

The bickering is the basis of their symbiotic relationship.

You’ll quickly bore of each other without the rants. Before I knew better I was genuinely concerned for him because of the levels of disdain and bitterness he had. I also didn’t understand why he kept coming back to this “asshat” filled website. Nor did I get that his vitriolic rants were just a performance.

Now I know better. I understand it’s all just a big show. He runs around yelling at everyone in order to get people to engage him. He loves Dave, why because Dave gives him a fight. He claims to hate MM, why? because it’ll piss people off and then they’ll engage him in arguments.

Oh, o.k., I’ll yell at him because he’s a jerk. Nope, that doesn’t work I’ll be nice to him. Nope, that doesn’t work either. O.k., I’ll stroke his ego and tell him he’s got some good points/predictions. Oh look, he acted civil for a minute.

PUH-LEEZ, why bother with it at all?
