Thank you for sharing your bathroom habits with us, Gooch. As always your copraphilia is absolutely scintialling, as we American proles love our bathroom humor.
The renound actor, Jeremy Irons, was saying on a tele-interview that let's hope the Chinese will not start the Western habit using toilet tissue. Not only will our oceans become huge cesspools, but our forests fellen bare.
After reading *London Fields,* I met Mr Amis for drinks & dinner in L.A. on his U.S. booktour, I kindly pointed out his novel was not only compelling reading and seemless story, but it had taught me 18 new ways of saying "excrement." His eyes opened up like Jessie Jacksons' for a moment so I expounded, "You know, like 'modoir.'"
—Oh, you mean 'mordue,' he explained in describing Marmaduke's toilet training (or lack of) He was the devil's seed child of Guy and Hope Clinch (remember Hope ran the Clinch household like a HMR Naval battle ship) so I guess I was exaggerating because i only learned about four new words for ****; but i do remember vivdly the graphic description of Nicola's porcelaine throne when Keith examined it. Thank you so much for sharing these most intimate things with us, boys.
