[at ten o'clock, Concrete Blonde's rendition of the now-familiar Leonard Cohen tune comes BLASTING out of the journals, at full volume, as loud as Harry can make it go. no one's ignoring him, this week. even if you've got your journal closed and locked in a drawer, you're probably going to hear him

Boy, tell me about it. ... I guess you could do what I do: if someone sends out a call for help, try and answer? I mean, there's not much a guy like me can do, but when there is somethin'? I give it a shot.

Cheeky? [he laughs] That's a polite way of putting it, yeah. And schooling's a polite way to put it, too. I got stuck through the wringer that is the American public school system. That sorta passes for education.
