Never been myself but I did see the movie "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil". I found the amount of drinking unusual. And the invisible dog. >Not sure why they selected it for Ralston College (first I've heard of this), >although it seems to have just the right amount of quirkiness for such an >endeavor. Back in the 1960's, one would have expected to see such a college in California or thereabouts. I guess that that part of the country has lost its charm. >If I recall correctly, the John Cusack character in the film version of >Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil referred to Savannah as >"Gone with the Wind on mescaline." That's about right. Yes, you recall correctly. I recall there being problems with electricity, an unhealthy interest in Alabama college football, and a cavalier attitude towards firearms such as where a matronly type pulls out a pistol at a party and says "I'm going to shoot me a man!". Also, Cusack/Kelso's playing a tape of NYC street noises in order to get asleep. I've been there. -Mike Palij New York University m...@nyu.edu --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: arch...@jab.org.
