:14:01
Whatever it costs,
it won't be as much...
:14:03
...as that exquisitely uncomfortable
mohair episode there.
:14:06
Which is now all over my suit.
:14:08
Here you go.
:14:11
We're also going to have
a section...
:14:12
...dedicated just to writers
who've lived on the West Side.
:14:15
As a shot to the neighborhood.
:14:16
Perfect. keep those West Side
liberalnuts, pseudo-intellectual--
:14:20
Readers, Dad.
They're called readers.
:14:22
Don't romanticize them.
It'll keep them...
:14:25
...from jumping down your throat.
:14:26
What's the competition?
:14:28
One mystery store, Sleuth,
at 78th and Amsterdam...
:14:32
...and a children's bookstore,
Shop Around The Corner.
:14:34
Been there forever.
:14:36
Cecilia's store.
:14:38
Who's that?
:14:39
Cecilia kelly.
:14:41
Lovely woman. I think we might
have had a date once.
:14:45
Or maybe we just exchanged letters.
:14:48
You wrote her letters?
:14:50
Mail. It was called mail.
:14:53
Stamps, envelopes--
:14:54
You know, I've heard of it.
:14:55
Cecilia had beautiful penmanship.
:14:58
She was too young for me...
:15:01
...but she was...
:15:03
...enchanting.
:15:04
Enchanting?
:15:05
Her daughter owns it now.
:15:08
Too bad for her.
:15:12
Excuse me, Mr. Fox.
:15:14
My father is getting
married again.
:15:15
For 5 years, he's been living
with a woman named Gillian...
:15:18
...who studied decorating
at Caesar's Palace.
:15:21
Is it porcelain?
:15:22
Rubber.
:15:25
Once I read a story about a
butterfly in the subway, and today...
:15:28
...l saw one.
:15:30
It got on at 42nd...
:15:31
...and off at 59th...
:15:33
...where I assume it went
to Bloomingdale's...
:15:34
...to buy a hat that will
turn out to be a mistake.
:15:37
As almost all hats are.
:15:41
Listen to this:
:15:42
Every night a truck pulls up
to my neighborhood bagel place...
:15:44
...and pumps about a ton of flour
into underground tanks.
:15:47
Then the air is filled...
:15:49
...with white dust
which never seems to land.
:15:51
Why is that?
:15:54
Confession: I have read
Pride and Prejudice about 200 times.
:15:59
I get lost in the language.
