Nabby, even two hours of T&A couldn't get me to sit through another David Lynch movie. :-) I thank you for the thought, but seriously I regret the two hours I gave it as a favor to someone here more than I do the hours I spent this month watching American TV shows. At least I got paid for the latter. No offense to your TM Hero, but he's really just an indulgent, uninteresting filmmaker. I am convinced that his fame is purely because of the obscurity of his films; there is a certain element who think that if something is obscure and hard to figure out, it's actually saying something. I am not convinced that Lynch has ever had anything to say. > Anyway I don't see how they would allow you a membership > at the silencio-club, so no need to fear the menu :-) Fortunately, my feelings about private clubs echo Groucho's: "I wouldn't be a member of any club that would have me as a member." The only exception I have ever made to this rule ( if you forget the TMO and the Rama trip :-) was a members-only Japanese club in Chicago. It was Japanese-only; the only reason they let me become a member (it only cost me buying an expensive bottle of whiskey to live behind the bar for me to drink from when I visited) was because legally they had to. They *hated* me being there; other than expensive hookers accompanying the Japanese businessmen, I was the only gaijin in the place. But I wanted to soak up the atmosphere of the place for something I was writing that had Japanese characters in it, so it was worth it to me. Having lived in Paris, and gotten into pretty much every joint I wanted to, I doubt I'd have much of a problem getting into Dave's Cafe Indulgencia if I wanted to. All it usually takes is flashing my watch at the doorman; it's recognizably rare and expensive enough that it has opened many doors for me. But why do you think I *wouldn't* be accepted as a member of such a club, if membership is really required? Do you think that the scanners at the door would detect my latent Buddhistic tendencies and set off an alarm? :-)
