A lot of undercurrents under that “current.” A hard-nosed ex-Marine, I wonder how many wives he wore down. The simple son of a bitch was more faithful to his employer than to any woman. Out of the Marines and straight into Oak Crest and stayed there until they dumped him. How close was he to pension; a year and a half? Hauck Curtis Exman; my God, it’s my second HCE. I started with an HCE and, except for Fallon, I’m ending with an HCE. Here Comes Everybody. Yes, and here comes a candle to light you to bed. Sable Jetty is south of Kingston, where I had my accident with the pickup truck. It’s right on the Hudson River, a little old river town of wood and brick, built up the steep slope, probably two hundred years beyond any economic justification for its existence. These places have become weekend homes for the city well- to-do because they’re so quaint, and they’re quaint because the people have been too poor to keep up with the latest trends. This is the sort of town movie companies use when they’re shooting a film set in the twenties or thirties.
