"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Right. Ellroy's got an entertaining bebop shtick, that wears thin about as quickly as shtick tends to do. Personally, I think he thinks he is cooler than he actually is.

Okay, it's unfair to forget Renee's Bridget, considering how much crap she put up with about her weight.

True. I think I forgot this example because I thinks he looks soooo much better with a bit of meat on her bones and I am actually blocking out her skinny periods.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

it's unfair to forget Renee's Bridget

I think it's unfair to characterise forgetting as unfair.

But I'm with Nutty -- I think she looks best somewhere between weights, and I much prefer her Bridget size to the size she prefers. When Clooney/Crowe/Diesel gain fat, I've never heard anyone say "Oh, that's better! I hope they don't go back to looking like they did before!"

Not only cooler, but having answers They don't want to get around. I suppose the novel for me part is finding a writer one, instead of on the bus wearing a helmet.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I saw a fascinating documentary about James Ellroy a few years ago: James Ellroy's Feast of Death, I think. He's a pretty repugnant guy, but it did make me want to read more of his books. The documentary also had a lot of background on the Black Dahlia case. erika, you at least should search it out.

Of course, I don't doubt that I will. I don't really need to make small talk, right? You all knew the Black Dahlia was physically incapable of accepting penetration, right?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

You all knew the Black Dahlia was physically incapable of accepting penetration, right?

I didn't know that. How so? Cast-iron hymen? Built like Barbie?

Imperforate vagina.

She was congenitally unable to grow in that part of her.The theory is that she came on really hard to some sick fucker, thinking maybe she'd roll him but he caught on and got so enraged he carved her up. Damn, I am a classy bitch. The really SADDEST thing? That still doesn't narrow it down all that much. Mercy, mercy me.

Vagina or hymen?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

She was congenitally unable to grow in that part of her.

I am confused... I think I need more explaination.

Also, I think I saw a program about a man who thought the Black Dahlia's killer was his father-- that wasn't James Ellroy, was it?
