| I am "one of those" marinated-and-deep-fried-in-pop-culture types. An exquisite corpse forged from a mosaic of cinema (and the grand old popcorn palaces in which films used to screen), amusement parks, midnight spook shows, carnivals, drive-ins, Googie signage, Halloween, comic books (especially the sort that Fredrick Wortham railed against in Seduction of the Innocent), live theater (Grand Guignol, musicals). A cold vanilla cola poured over a scoop of homemade ice cream in a frosty fountain glass kind of guy. |
