How some of the writers I come across get through their books without dying of boredom is beyond me.
For most men life is a search for the proper manila envelope in which to get themselves filed.
I'm a freak, everything has to be totally flat when I play. Ed Will, my jazz teacher, set up everything completely flat, and then you'd tilt your snare drum away from you, so I do that too. So my snare tilts away from me.
