00:41:38,792 --> 00:41:39,917 uh... 802 00:41:40,167 --> 00:41:41,876 Van Gogh and... 803 00:41:42,209 --> 00:41:44,709 and Emily Dickinson and-- and Schubert. 804 00:41:45,834 --> 00:41:47,667 You

00:50:12,001 --> 00:50:12,626 You know? 994 00:50:12,876 --> 00:50:13,542 There were zillions of them. 995 00:50:13,792 --> 00:50:15,376 There were zillions of... 996 00:50:15,667 --> 00:50:17,751 waitresses, secretaries that I used to hang out with, 997 00:50:18,001 --> 00:50:18,959 you know? 998 00:50:19,209 --> 00:50:20,376 And we used to do all that kind of stuff. 999 00:50:27,042 --> 00:50:28,542 - Um... 1000 00:50:30,042 --> 00:50:32,626 Yeah, but I'd love to hear one of your stories sometime. 1001 00:50:36,251 --> 00:50:39,417 - Well, I mean, I could read you one. 1002 00:50:39,959 --> 00:50:41,792 - Oh, you mean now? 1003 00:50:42,084 --> 00:50:42,792 No, not now. 1004 00:50:43,042 --> 00:50:44,167 I don't know, maybe some other time, 1005 00:50:44,417 -->

00:52:56,126 That's good, I like that. 1027 00:52:56,376 --> 00:52:56,959 - What's so funny? 1028 00:52:57,209 --> 00:52:58,001 - No, no, no! 1029 00:52:58,251 --> 00:52:58,751 It's-- it's great,

don't be stupid! 1033 00:53:07,001 --> 00:53:09,084 - I didn't think I was being stupid. 1034 00:53:09,376 --> 00:53:10,792 - Well, I didn't-- I didn't mean it like that. 1035 00:53:11,042 -->

- Yeah, go on. 1043 00:53:41,876 --> 00:53:44,417 "The Buick Regal screeched out of the Bangagon Tavern 1044 00:53:44,667 --> 00:53:45,792 parking lot. 1045 00:53:47,001 --> 00:53:48,834 Felix was drunk again. 1046 00:53:49,667 --> 00:53:52,584 In his lap bobbed the head of one of the topless dancers from 1047 00:53:52,834 --> 00:53:54,876 the club." 1048 00:53:55,167 --> 00:53:56,792 "Up and down. 1049 00:53:57,626 --> 00:54:01,917 They were going about 90 when--" 1050 00:54:02,667 --> 00:54:03,792 Excuse me. 1051 00:54:05,459 --> 00:54:09,126 "The Buick Regal hit the endless curve and lost control. 1052 00:54:10,209 --> 00:54:12,167 Sparks lit the black nowhere countryside, 1053 00:54:12,417 --> 00:54:14,126 revealing a house. 1054 00:54:14,459 --> 00:54:17,709 The car flipped as it reamed through the front yard. 1055 00:54:18,251 --> 00:54:22,751 The head came... flying out of the car as it exploded in a 1056 00:54:23,001 --> 00:54:24,417 woosh of fire. 1057 00:54:25,584 --> 00:54:28,334 A fat woman tumbled out of the burning house, 1058 00:54:28,584 --> 00:54:30,584 her nightgown in flames. 1059 00:54:30,834 --> 00:54:34,959 Her skinny husband crawled after down the front steps, 1060 00:54:35,209 --> 00:54:37,542 looking for his glasses. 1061 00:54:38,001 --> 00:54:40,334 Minnie and Wallace Meanie. 1062 00:54:40,667 --> 00:54:43,126 The topless dancer was being bodybagged when, 1063 00:54:43,376 --> 00:54:46,209 from behind the house, came the sound of crying. 1064 00:54:46,459 --> 00:54:48,792 And even though he couldn't see a thing, 1065 00:54:49,042 --> 00:54:52,376 Wallace said, 'Geez, is that a baby?' 1066 00:54:52,626 --> 00:54:55,542 'Yeah, isn't it yours?' asked the fireman. 1067 00:54:55,792 --> 00:54:59,542 'No, me and Minnie...' trailed off Wallace. 1068 00:55:00,001 --> 00:55:02,709 Minnie and Wallace were childless in their middle age, 1069 00:55:02,959 --> 00:55:05,542 and at the insistence of Wallace, 1070 00:55:05,792 --> 00:55:09,917 they adopted the baby girl and called her 'Mini Minnie.' 1071 00:55:11,167 --> 00:55:13,417 The real trouble started when Little Minnie got to be 1072 00:55:13,667 --> 00:55:15,126 a teenager. 1073 00:55:15,792 --> 00:55:18,376 Big Minnie got too fat to go out of the house, 1074 00:55:18,626 --> 00:55:22,167 so Wallace got a job selling baseball uniforms to little 1075 00:55:22,459 --> 00:55:24,792 league teams across the country. 1076 00:55:25,376 --> 00:55:28,709 Big Minnie sat in bed and yelled for her food and made Little 1077 00:55:28,959 --> 00:55:32,417 Minnie go to the mall to rent videos for her. 1078 00:55:33,876 --> 00:55:36,751 Little Minnie was walking home from the mall late one night 1079 00:55:37,001 --> 00:55:39,417 when a voice came from the ball rushes. 1080 00:55:39,667 --> 00:55:40,709 'Minnie... 1081 00:55:40,959 --> 00:55:42,209 Mini Minnie... 1082 00:55:42,459 --> 00:55:45,167 I know where you came from, Mini Minnie.' 1083 00:55:45,959 --> 00:55:49,876 Minnie was always tortured by not knowing where she came from. 1084 00:55:50,209 --> 00:55:52,667 So, she crept into the weeds. 1085 00:55:52,917 --> 00:55:55,876 'You know where I came from?' asked Minnie. 1086 00:55:56,126 --> 00:55:58,876 Just then, a dark figure grabbed Minnie and pulled her to the 1087 00:55:59,126 --> 00:56:00,501 ground. 1088 00:56:00,751 --> 00:56:03,167 'If you want me to tell you, you must let me do whatever I want 1089 00:56:03,417 --> 00:56:05,751 to you,' hissed the voice. 1090 00:56:06,042 --> 00:56:08,709 'No, please, can't you just tell me?' 1091 00:56:09,334 --> 00:56:11,126 'No, I need the inspiration. 1092 00:56:11,376 --> 00:56:13,667 I really need it, bad.' 1093 00:56:13,959 --> 00:56:15,876 So Minnie gave in. 1094 00:56:16,209 --> 00:56:17,959 He did whatever he wanted to her. 1095 00:56:18,209 --> 00:56:20,751 Awful, unspeakable things. 1096 00:56:21,001 --> 00:56:23,792 But worse was what he said to her. 1097 00:56:24,459 --> 00:56:26,501 'Your mother, she would lay before any man, 1098 00:56:26,751 --> 00:56:29,709 at any time, and was always having babies. 1099 00:56:30,167 --> 00:56:32,876 But she hated the children, and she needed to hide her 1100 00:56:33,126 --> 00:56:35,751 pregnancies from her foolish husband. 1101 00:56:36,167 --> 00:56:38,709 She hid them by getting really fat. 1102 00:56:38,959 --> 00:56:41,751 And when the babies were born, she didn't know what to do with 1103 00:56:42,001 --> 00:56:43,292 the babies. 1104 00:56:43,542 --> 00:56:46,959 But being hungry all the time, she ate them.' 1105 00:56:48,209 --> 00:56:48,959 'Oh, no. 1106 00:56:49,209 --> 00:56:50,709 No,' screamed Little Minnie. 1107 00:56:50,959 --> 00:56:51,667 'Yes. 1108 00:56:51,959 --> 00:56:54,501 Yes, that's what she did. 1109 00:56:54,792 --> 00:56:57,709 Until one night, when she was having her last baby, 1110 00:56:57,959 --> 00:56:59,751 there was a car crash that stopped her from eating her 1111 00:57:00,001 --> 00:57:01,126 baby. 1112 00:57:01,376 --> 00:57:03,959 It crawled away during the confusion.' 1113 00:57:04,959 --> 00:57:07,751 'You mean... Minnie is my real mother?' 1114 00:57:08,542 --> 00:57:12,167 'Yes,' hissed the voice as he violated her over and over 1115 00:57:12,417 --> 00:57:13,792 again. 1116 00:57:14,167 --> 00:57:16,792 'No, she can't be,' screamed Minnie. 1117 00:57:17,167 --> 00:57:21,167 The dark figure ran off, leaving Minnie lying in the swamp. 1118 00:57:21,667 --> 00:57:25,917 She got up and went out to the road and hitchhiked away. 1119 00:57:26,251 --> 00:57:29,334 She worked her way North as a topless go-go dancer. 1120 00:57:29,584 --> 00:57:31,751 She was always athletic. 1121 00:57:32,001 --> 00:57:35,126 After many nights, Minnie finally c-- found the site of 1122 00:57:35,376 --> 00:57:36,542 the old Meanie house. 1123 00:57:36,834 --> 00:57:38,959 She dug through the burnt timbers, 1124 00:57:39,209 --> 00:57:42,334 and in the basement, beneath a charred chrome Buick Regal 1125 00:57:42,584 --> 00:57:46,417 insignia, she found a pile of baby bones. 1126 00:57:46,667 --> 00:57:49,542 She began, at that moment, her quest to bring Big Minnie to 1127 00:57:49,792 --> 00:57:51,334 justice. 1128 00:57:51,584 --> 00:57:52,917 She worked her way back to Florida, 1129 00:57:53,167 --> 00:57:55,751 dancing at the same clubs along the way. 1130 00:57:56,584 --> 00:57:59,334 But she started having an awful dream. 1131 00:57:59,626 --> 00:58:02,834 It was so awful that it even began to hurt her dancing. 1132 00:58:03,292 --> 00:58:06,626 She would wiggle so fiercely, it scared the men in the clubs. 1133 00:58:06,876 --> 00:58:09,126 The owners would warn her, but she would reply, 1134 00:58:09,376 --> 00:58:11,792 'I can't control my dreams.' 1135 00:58:13,292 --> 00:58:16,709 When she got back home, Little Minnie burst in the front door. 1136 00:58:16,959 --> 00:58:19,334 Big Minnie screamed, 'Where have you been? 1137 00:58:19,584 --> 00:58:22,751 You never came back with my videos or my food.' 1138 00:58:23,042 --> 00:58:25,834 Little Minnie rushed at the huge woman in a fury. 1139 00:58:26,209 --> 00:58:28,751 Little Minnie grabbed Big Minnie's face and screamed, 1140 00:58:29,001 --> 00:58:32,001 'I have something for you to eat, Mother.' 1141 00:58:32,584 --> 00:58:34,584 Little Minnie pinned Big Minnie down and shoved all 1142 00:58:34,834 --> 00:58:36,959 the baby bones down her throat. 1143 00:58:37,251 --> 00:58:38,792 Big Minnie died. 1144 00:58:39,042 --> 00:58:41,542 Choked on the bones of her children. 1145 00:58:42,459 --> 00:58:45,334 Little Minnie ran away to Miami, where she worked in clubs for 1146 00:58:45,584 --> 00:58:46,917 months. 1147 00:58:47,167 --> 00:58:49,417 Every night, she would wake up screaming and crying from her 1148 00:58:49,667 --> 00:58:51,001 dream. 1149 00:58:54,042 --> 00:58:57,709 At the end of the summer, Little Minnie came to see Wallace. 1150 00:58:58,042 --> 00:59:00,792 When he heard her he-- coming, he jumped up and they hugged 1151 00:59:01,042 --> 00:59:02,792 each other, crying. 1152 00:59:03,042 --> 00:59:05,167 Wallace begged her to stay. 1153 00:59:07,417 --> 00:59:09,917 So, life went on for a while with Little Minnie living with 1154 00:59:10,167 --> 00:59:11,542 Wallace. 1155 00:59:12,209 --> 00:59:14,917 She worked at Bob's Big Boy Hamburger Joint. 1156 00:59:15,209 --> 00:59:18,542 They went duckpin bowling, like in the old days. 1157 00:59:19,001 --> 00:59:22,209 But she kept having her dream, over and over, 1158 00:59:22,459 --> 00:59:24,376 about her twin sister. 1159 00:59:24,626 --> 00:59:28,709 She and her sister were unborn twins in Big Minnie's womb. 1160 00:59:30,167 --> 00:59:31,917 Through the walls of Big Minnie's body, 1161 00:59:32,167 --> 00:59:36,542 she could hear fighting between Wallace and Big Minnie. 1162 00:59:36,792 --> 00:59:39,542 Her twin was really scared and stuck her little fingers in her 1163 00:59:39,792 --> 00:59:41,376 little ears. 1164 00:59:41,876 --> 00:59:43,792 But Little Minnie listened. 1165 00:59:44,042 --> 00:59:46,709 She knew there was only one way for her to live. 1166 00:59:46,959 --> 00:59:49,917 So she went over and talked to her twin. 1167 00:59:50,376 --> 00:59:53,917 She calmed her down and told her that she should go out and 1168 00:59:54,167 --> 00:59:56,542 everything would be okay. 1169 00:59:56,834 --> 00:59:59,751 Her twin sister was so scared that she agreed to go. 1170 01:00:00,459 --> 01:00:03,167 In the dream, her sister was born, 1171 01:00:03,417 --> 01:00:05,751 and Little Minnie hid inside Big Minnie, 1172 01:00:06,001 --> 01:00:08,709 listening to Wallace kill her sister. 1173 01:00:09,376 --> 01:00:12,709 Later that night, Little Minnie snuck out of Big Minnie and was 1174 01:00:12,959 --> 01:00:14,917 born secretly. 1175 01:00:15,667 --> 01:00:19,542 She crawled into the walls of the house and hid. 1176 01:00:19,834 --> 01:00:21,584 She lived there for months. 1177 01:00:21,834 --> 01:00:26,126 Late at night, she'd sneak out and eat from the leftover food. 1178 01:00:26,876 --> 01:00:30,834 It was very lonely, living in the walls of the house. 1179 01:00:31,417 --> 01:00:34,917 That is, until the night of the crash." 1180 01:00:38,876 --> 01:00:41,542 "Right at that moment, Little Minnie woke up, and standing 1181 01:00:41,792 --> 01:00:44,417 over her was Wallace smiling at her. 1182 01:00:45,834 --> 01:00:49,751 He came closer and whispered, 'I know what you've been dreaming.' 1183 01:00:50,292 --> 01:00:52,709 When Little Minnie heard this, she jumped up. 1184 01:00:53,251 --> 01:00:56,792 Wallace stood up, laughing like a

01:02:18,626 --> 01:02:23,584 Wallace continued hissing, 'I know where you came from.' 1214 01:02:25,376 --> 01:02:27,792 'No,' screamed Minnie. 1215 01:02:28,042 --> 01:02:29,542 'Yes. 1216

could hook you up with 1252 01:04:14,584 --> 01:04:15,709 someone. 1253 01:04:16,001 --> 01:04:17,751 Because-- see, I've been offered substantial advances, 1254 01:04:18,001 --> 01:04:18,834 but I'll probably hold out. 1255 01:04:19,084 --> 01:04:19,959 See, the longer you refuse to sell, 1256 01:04:20,209 --> 01:04:21,376 the more control you have over your book. 1257 01:04:21,626 -->

the title or, you know, stuff about girls or... 1260 01:04:28,626 --> 01:04:30,584 But, um, see, I've been working with publisher for years, 1261 01:04:30,834 --> 01:04:33,626 and-- and they-- they feel, really feel that I'm ready for 1262 01:04:33,876 --> 01:04:35,167 my success. 1263 01:04:35,459 --> 01:04:36,709 But I tell them I won't do talk shows. 1264 01:04:36,959 --> 01:04:37,917 Hate

never become part of the problem. 1268 01:04:42,876 --> 01:04:44,334 'Cause I-- I mean, I'm not gonna become another Jimi Hendrix. 1269 01:04:44,584 --> 01:04:46,709 See, he wasn't ready for success and it killed him. 1270 01:04:47,042 --> 01:04:48,584 But maybe-- maybe I'll do radio interview but no, 1271 01:04:48,834 --> 01:04:51,126 uh, no TV. 1272 01:04:56,167 --> 01:04:57,917 What is it?

01:05:23,251 --> 01:05:24,792 - I have been published. 1277 01:05:26,167 --> 01:05:27,334 - What do you mean? 1278 01:05:27,584 --> 01:05:29,126 - I have a publisher. 1279 01:05:29,376 -->

01:05:36,001 --> 01:05:37,792 - How'd you do that? 1284 01:05:39,042 --> 01:05:39,917 - Oh, it was really cool. 1285 01:05:40,167 --> 01:05:41,126 Um... 1286 01:05:41,376 --> 01:05:42,959 one day, I was reading this magazine that, 1287 01:05:43,209 --> 01:05:45,542 um, that said that these guys were looking for unpublished 1288 01:05:45,834 --> 01:05:49,334 works, and so I sent them the copy of the book and, 1289 01:05:49,584 --> 01:05:52,709 uh, and they read it and they really liked it. 1290 01:05:53,667 --> 01:05:55,709 And they said that they couldn't sell a lot of copies but, 1291 01:05:55,959 --> 01:05:57,376 you know, they could sell a few and we could see what would 1292 01:05:57,626 --> 01:05:58,917 happen. 1293 01:06:00,167 --> 01:06:01,376 It was the happiest day of my life. 1294 01:06:01,626 --> 01:06:03,792 For me. 1295 01:06:04,834 --> 01:06:07,334 So, I went down, I sent them the book, 1296 01:06:07,584 --> 01:06:08,751 you know, um... 1297 01:06:09,001 -->

01:06:20,584 --> 01:06:23,334 - No, actually, I-- I, uh, I had to put up a little money for, 1301 01:06:23,584 --> 01:06:27,001 like, the rights or some legal fees or something. 1302 01:06:27,251 -->

let me design the cover myself. 1306 01:06:35,792 --> 01:06:37,334 They said not everybody was allowed to design the covers 1307 01:06:37,584 --> 01:06:39,167 themselves but that they liked my design, 1308 01:06:39,417 --> 01:06:40,751 so... 1309 01:06:44,251 --> 01:06:45,917 I mean, it's never gonna make the New York Times bestseller 1310 01:06:46,167 --> 01:06:47,792 list, but... 1311

01:20:07,542 'Cause-- 'cause nobody ever told me what to do. 1569 01:20:07,792 --> 01:20:09,126 I... 1570 01:20:11,251 --> 01:20:12,792 And so, like, I watch all night hoping that it tells me what to 1571 01:20:13,042 --> 01:20:14,626 do. 1572 01:20:16,126 --> 01:20:18,542 You know, I-- I don't talk about anything I haven't seen on TV. 1573 01:20:18,792 --> 01:20:21,792 I didn't read about birds or microwaves or... 1574 01:20:27,584 --> 01:20:29,626 See, it's like something broke in me... 1575 01:20:29,876 --> 01:20:31,834 a long time ago. 1576 01:20:35,209 --> 01:20:35,959 And I don't know what it was, 1577 01:20:36,209 --> 01:20:38,626 and-- and it's too hard for me to keep trying. 1578 01:20:39,959 --> 01:20:42,709 And there are a lot of things that I want to do with my life. 1579 01:20:49,876 --> 01:20:51,917 And I'm so far behind now, I'm never gonna catch up. 1580 01:20:52,167 --> 01:20:53,709 I just... 1581 01:20:54,792 --> 01:20:55,792 I just wish someone would tell me what to do, 1582 01:20:56,042 --> 01:21:00,126 that I should sit down and I should eat something and... 1583 01:21:00,959 --> 01:21:02,917 afterwards, they'll-- 1584 01:21:12,001 --> 01:21:14,751 afterwards, they'll, you know, answer my questions and tell me 1585 01:21:15,001 --> 01:21:16,292 how to do stuff and that if I screw up, it's okay, 1586 01:21:16,584 --> 01:21:17,542 'cause that's what people do. 1587 01:21:17,792 --> 01:21:19,126 Screwing up's a good thing! 1588 01:21:19,376 --> 01:21:21,376 It's-- it's good and... 1589 01:21:22,917 --> 01:21:24,542 And then, they'll tell me to go to bed and-- and go to sleep and 1590 01:21:24,792 --> 01:21:26,209 that... 1591 01:21:27,084 --> 01:21:27,709 you know, it'll be okay tomorrow, 1592 01:21:27,959 --> 01:21:30,417 we'll do something... else and, you know, 1593 01:21:30,667 --> 01:21:32,334 we'll have fun. 1594 01:21:36,001 --> 01:21:37,417 I'm sorry. 1595 01:21:59,251 --> 01:22:01,126 - You know, um... 1596 01:22:11,584 --> 01:22:12,709 I lie in bed at night, you know, 1597 01:22:12,959 --> 01:22:16,542 and I'm staring up at the ceiling and it's like... 1598 01:22:17,876 --> 01:22:21,334 the only thing that's gotten me through lately... 1599 01:22:22,376 --> 01:22:25,126 is the thought that I'd see you at work. 1600 01:22:26,792 --> 01:22:27,792 You know, at first, I thought, oh, 1601 01:22:28,042 --> 01:22:30,626 I just liked you 'cause, 1602 01:22:30,876 --> 01:22:33,209 you know, you were so much... fun, 1603 01:22:33,459 --> 01:22:35,792 making jokes at those guys' expense and-- and them not 1604 01:22:36,042 --> 01:22:36,751 knowing it. 1605 01:22:37,001 --> 01:22:38,626 And then... 1606 01:22:41,417 --> 01:22:46,167 and then, you'd smile and you'd-- you'd look at me. 1607 01:22:47,417 --> 01:22:49,459 And I'd understand. 1608 01:22:57,501 --> 01:22:59,959 I don't know what happened. 1609 01:23:01,834 --> 01:23:03,459 It's like... 1610 01:23:03,876 --> 01:23:05,792 at one point, guys just, 1611 01:23:06,042 --> 01:23:07,792 uh... 1612 01:23:08,501 --> 01:23:10,834 stopped asking me out, you know? 1613 01:23:14,209 --> 01:23:15,959 I mean, I don't know if it was 'cause of my age or, 1614 01:23:16,209 --> 01:23:17,792 uh... 1615 01:23:18,042 --> 01:23:21,667 because, you know, maybe I-- I gave off this, 1616 01:23:21,917 --> 01:23:23,792 uh, serious vibe. 1617 01:23:25,292
