00:34:09,042 I mean, I don't have anything. 641 00:34:09,042 --> 00:34:10,875 See, I'm the kind of person that thinks... 642 00:34:10,875 --> 00:34:12,708 "Why do you have to be in a museum and-- and look at 643 00:34:12,708 --> 00:34:14,875 paintings if you can paint your own painting?" 644 00:34:15,708 --> 00:34:16,708 You know, do things for yourself. 645 00:34:16,708 --> 00:34:18,333 I mean,

There's so many people doing things they hate. 652 00:34:26,375 --> 00:34:28,333 I mean, you have people running the country who-- all they care 653 00:34:28,333 --> 00:34:30,000 about is keeping their jobs but not doing their jobs. 654 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:31,708 I mean, there's so little real love in any of the work that I 655 00:34:31,708 --> 00:34:33,167 see. 656 00:34:33,667 --> 00:34:35,167 I've been... 657 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:49,042 I've been in many "in camera" sessions. 658 00:34:49,042 --> 00:34:49,917 In-- in camera. 659 00:34:49,917 --> 00:34:51,667 Do you know what

00:34:58,833 --> 00:34:59,875 In camera, in the room. 664 00:34:59,875 --> 00:35:02,083 It means anything said in the room has to stay there. 665 00:35:02,417 --> 00:35:03,500 But if you don't understand something, 666 00:35:03,500 --> 00:35:05,500 just, uh, just ask me. 667 00:35:05,500 --> 00:35:06,500 -Oh, yeah, I know, I know. 668 00:35:06,500 --> 00:35:09,000 But they, uh, you know,

678 00:35:33,875 --> 00:35:34,375 you know? 679 00:35:34,375 --> 00:35:36,875 I mean, it's like I've worked for-- in offices, 680 00:35:36,875 --> 00:35:39,417 you know, for years, but I've never even

all those people went. 991 00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:11,917 You know? 992 00:50:11,917 --> 00:50:12,833 There were zillions of them. 993 00:50:12,833 --> 00:50:14,542 There were zillions of... 994 00:50:14,750 --> 00:50:17,000 waitresses, secretaries that I used to hang out with, 995 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:17,750 you know? 996 00:50:17,750 --> 00:50:19,542 And we used to do all that kind of stuff. 997 00:50:26,042 --> 00:50:27,667 -Um... 998 00:50:29,042 --> 00:50:31,750 Yeah, but I'd love to hear one of your stories sometime. 999 00:50:35,208 --> 00:50:38,583 -Well, I mean, I could read

-Yeah, go on. 1041 00:53:40,917 --> 00:53:43,750 "The Buick Regal screeched out of the Bangagon Tavern 1042 00:53:43,750 --> 00:53:45,083 parking lot. 1043 00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:47,917 Felix was drunk again. 1044 00:53:48,542 --> 00:53:52,083 In his lap bobbed the head of one of the topless dancers from 1045 00:53:52,083 --> 00:53:54,333 the club." 1046 00:53:54,333 --> 00:53:55,875 "Up and down. 1047 00:53:56,500 --> 00:54:01,167 They were going about 90 when--" 1048 00:54:01,750 --> 00:54:03,042 Excuse me. 1049 00:54:04,167 --> 00:54:08,333 "The Buick Regal hit the endless curve and lost control. 1050 00:54:09,167 --> 00:54:11,542 Sparks lit the black nowhere countryside, 1051 00:54:11,542 --> 00:54:13,333 revealing a house. 1052 00:54:13,583 --> 00:54:17,000 The car flipped as it reamed through the front yard. 1053 00:54:17,417 --> 00:54:22,000 The head came...flying out of the car as it exploded in a 1054 00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:23,583 woosh of fire. 1055 00:54:24,667 --> 00:54:27,667 A fat woman tumbled out of the burning house, 1056 00:54:27,667 --> 00:54:29,875 her nightgown in flames. 1057 00:54:29,875 --> 00:54:34,375 Her skinny husband crawled after down the front steps, 1058 00:54:34,375 --> 00:54:36,667 looking for his glasses. 1059 00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:39,500 Minnie and Wallace Meanie. 1060 00:54:39,750 --> 00:54:42,500 The topless dancer was being bodybagged when, 1061 00:54:42,500 --> 00:54:45,583 from behind the house, came the sound of crying. 1062 00:54:45,583 --> 00:54:48,042 And even though he couldn't see a thing, 1063 00:54:48,042 --> 00:54:51,708 Wallace said, 'Geez, is that a baby?' 1064 00:54:51,708 --> 00:54:54,833 'Yeah, isn't it yours?' asked the fireman. 1065 00:54:54,833 --> 00:54:58,667 'No, me and Minnie...' trailed off Wallace. 1066 00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:02,167 Minnie and Wallace were childless in their middle age, 1067 00:55:02,167 --> 00:55:04,833 and at the insistence of Wallace, 1068 00:55:04,833 --> 00:55:09,167 they adopted the baby girl and called her 'Mini Minnie.' 1069 00:55:10,333 --> 00:55:12,750 The real trouble started when Little Minnie got to be 1070 00:55:12,750 --> 00:55:14,333 a teenager. 1071 00:55:14,833 --> 00:55:17,708 Big Minnie got too fat to go out of the house, 1072 00:55:17,708 --> 00:55:21,583 so Wallace got a job selling baseball uniforms to little 1073 00:55:21,583 --> 00:55:24,083 league teams across the country. 1074 00:55:24,500 --> 00:55:28,167 Big Minnie sat in bed and yelled for her food and made Little 1075 00:55:28,167 --> 00:55:31,583 Minnie go to the mall to rent videos for her. 1076 00:55:32,708 --> 00:55:36,000 Little Minnie was walking home from the mall late one night 1077 00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:38,750 when a voice came from the ball rushes. 1078 00:55:38,750 --> 00:55:40,167 'Minnie... 1079 00:55:40,167 --> 00:55:41,583 Mini Minnie... 1080 00:55:41,583 --> 00:55:44,375 I know where you came from, Mini Minnie.' 1081 00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:49,167 Minnie was always tortured by not knowing where she came from. 1082 00:55:49,417 --> 00:55:52,000 So, she crept into the weeds. 1083 00:55:52,167 --> 00:55:55,333 'You know where I came from?' asked Minnie. 1084 00:55:55,333 --> 00:55:58,333 Just then, a dark figure grabbed Minnie and pulled her to the 1085 00:55:58,333 --> 00:55:59,833 ground. 1086 00:55:59,833 --> 00:56:02,583 'If you want me to tell you, you must let me do whatever I want 1087 00:56:02,583 --> 00:56:04,875 to you,' hissed the voice. 1088 00:56:05,083 --> 00:56:08,042 'No, please, can't you just tell me?' 1089 00:56:08,500 --> 00:56:10,542 'No, I need the inspiration. 1090 00:56:10,542 --> 00:56:13,000 I really need it, bad.' 1091 00:56:13,208 --> 00:56:15,167 So Minnie gave in. 1092 00:56:15,417 --> 00:56:17,417 He did whatever he wanted to her. 1093 00:56:17,417 --> 00:56:20,083 Awful, unspeakable things. 1094 00:56:20,250 --> 00:56:22,917 But worse was what he said to her. 1095 00:56:23,417 --> 00:56:25,833 'Your mother, she would lay before any man, 1096 00:56:25,833 --> 00:56:29,042 at any time, and was always having babies. 1097 00:56:29,375 --> 00:56:32,333 But she hated the children, and she needed to hide her 1098 00:56:32,333 --> 00:56:35,083 pregnancies from her foolish husband. 1099 00:56:35,375 --> 00:56:38,208 She hid them by getting really fat. 1100 00:56:38,208 --> 00:56:41,250 And when the babies were born, she didn't know what to do with 1101 00:56:41,250 --> 00:56:42,667 the babies. 1102 00:56:42,667 --> 00:56:46,250 But being hungry all the time, she ate them.' 1103 00:56:47,417 --> 00:56:48,417 'Oh, no. 1104 00:56:48,417 --> 00:56:50,208 No,' screamed Little Minnie. 1105 00:56:50,208 --> 00:56:51,208 'Yes. 1106 00:56:51,208 --> 00:56:53,667 Yes, that's what she did. 1107 00:56:53,875 --> 00:56:57,208 Until one night, when she was having her last baby, 1108 00:56:57,208 --> 00:56:59,250 there was a car crash that stopped her from eating her 1109 00:56:59,250 --> 00:57:00,542 baby. 1110 00:57:00,542 --> 00:57:03,250 It crawled away during the confusion.' 1111 00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:07,083 'You mean...Minnie is my real mother?' 1112 00:57:07,667 --> 00:57:11,583 'Yes,' hissed the voice as he violated her over and over 1113 00:57:11,583 --> 00:57:12,917 again. 1114 00:57:13,167 --> 00:57:15,917 'No, she can't be,' screamed Minnie. 1115 00:57:16,167 --> 00:57:20,417 The dark figure ran off, leaving Minnie lying in the swamp. 1116 00:57:20,750 --> 00:57:25,167 She got up and went out to the road and hitchhiked away. 1117 00:57:25,417 --> 00:57:28,667 She worked her way North as a topless go-go dancer. 1118 00:57:28,667 --> 00:57:31,000 She was always athletic. 1119 00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:34,500 After many nights, Minnie finally c-- found the site of 1120 00:57:34,500 --> 00:57:36,083 the old Meanie house. 1121 00:57:36,083 --> 00:57:38,375 She dug through the burnt timbers, 1122 00:57:38,375 --> 00:57:41,667 and in the basement, beneath a charred chrome Buick Regal 1123 00:57:41,667 --> 00:57:45,750 insignia, she found a pile of baby bones. 1124 00:57:45,750 --> 00:57:48,833 She began, at that moment, her quest to bring Big Minnie to 1125 00:57:48,833 --> 00:57:50,667 justice. 1126 00:57:50,667 --> 00:57:52,333 She worked her way back to Florida, 1127 00:57:52,333 --> 00:57:55,042 dancing at the same clubs along the way. 1128 00:57:55,667 --> 00:57:58,500 But she started having an awful dream. 1129 00:57:58,708 --> 00:58:01,917 It was so awful that it even began to hurt her dancing. 1130 00:58:02,250 --> 00:58:05,750 She would wiggle so fiercely, it scared the men in the clubs. 1131 00:58:05,917 --> 00:58:08,500 The owners would warn her, but she would reply, 1132 00:58:08,500 --> 00:58:10,875 'I can't control my dreams.' 1133 00:58:12,042 --> 00:58:16,000 When she got back home, Little Minnie burst in the front door. 1134 00:58:16,167 --> 00:58:18,667 Big Minnie screamed, 'Where have you been? 1135 00:58:18,667 --> 00:58:21,833 You never came back with my videos or my food.' 1136 00:58:22,042 --> 00:58:24,917 Little Minnie rushed at the huge woman in a fury. 1137 00:58:25,167 --> 00:58:28,208 Little Minnie grabbed Big Minnie's face and screamed, 1138 00:58:28,208 --> 00:58:31,250 'I have something for you to eat, Mother.' 1139 00:58:31,667 --> 00:58:33,875 Little Minnie pinned Big Minnie down and shoved all 1140 00:58:33,875 --> 00:58:36,208 the baby bones down her throat. 1141 00:58:36,417 --> 00:58:38,083 Big Minnie died. 1142 00:58:38,250 --> 00:58:40,667 Choked on the bones of her children. 1143 00:58:41,375 --> 00:58:44,667 Little Minnie ran away to Miami, where she worked in clubs for 1144 00:58:44,667 --> 00:58:45,875 months. 1145 00:58:45,875 --> 00:58:48,750 Every night, she would wake up screaming and crying from her 1146 00:58:48,750 --> 00:58:50,250 dream. 1147 00:58:53,042 --> 00:58:57,000 At the end of the summer, Little Minnie came to see Wallace. 1148 00:58:57,250 --> 00:59:00,250 When he heard her he-- coming, he jumped up and they hugged 1149 00:59:00,250 --> 00:59:02,083 each other, crying. 1150 00:59:02,250 --> 00:59:04,375 Wallace begged her to stay. 1151 00:59:06,542 --> 00:59:09,333 So, life went on for a while with Little Minnie living with 1152 00:59:09,333 --> 00:59:10,667 Wallace. 1153 00:59:11,167 --> 00:59:14,167 She worked at Bob's Big Boy Hamburger Joint. 1154 00:59:14,375 --> 00:59:17,667 They went duckpin bowling, like in the old days. 1155 00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:21,583 But she kept having her dream, over and over, 1156 00:59:21,583 --> 00:59:23,708 about her twin sister. 1157 00:59:23,708 --> 00:59:28,000 She and her sister were unborn twins in Big Minnie's womb. 1158 00:59:29,333 --> 00:59:31,333 Through the walls of Big Minnie's body, 1159 00:59:31,333 --> 00:59:35,667 she could hear fighting between Wallace and Big Minnie. 1160 00:59:35,833 --> 00:59:38,833 Her twin was really scared and stuck her little fingers in her 1161 00:59:38,833 --> 00:59:40,542 little ears. 1162 00:59:40,917 --> 00:59:43,042 But Little Minnie listened. 1163 00:59:43,042 --> 00:59:46,167 She knew there was only one way for her to live. 1164 00:59:46,167 --> 00:59:49,167 So she went over and talked to her twin. 1165 00:59:49,500 --> 00:59:53,333 She calmed her down and told her that she should go out and 1166 00:59:53,333 --> 00:59:55,667 everything would be okay. 1167 00:59:55,875 --> 00:59:59,042 Her twin sister was so scared that she agreed to go. 1168 00:59:59,583 --> 01:00:02,542 In the dream, her sister was born, 1169 01:00:02,542 --> 01:00:05,000 and Little Minnie hid inside Big Minnie, 1170 01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:08,000 listening to Wallace kill her sister. 1171 01:00:08,500 --> 01:00:12,167 Later that night, Little Minnie snuck out of Big Minnie and was 1172 01:00:12,167 --> 01:00:14,167 born secretly. 1173 01:00:14,750 --> 01:00:18,667 She crawled into the walls of the house and hid. 1174 01:00:18,875 --> 01:00:21,083 She lived there for months. 1175 01:00:21,083 --> 01:00:25,333 Late at night, she'd sneak out and eat from the

01:00:40,833 "Right at that moment, Little Minnie woke up, and standing 1179 01:00:40,833 --> 01:00:43,583 over her was Wallace smiling at her. 1180 01:00:44,667 --> 01:00:48,833 He came closer and whispered, 'I know what you've been dreaming.' 1181 01:00:49,250 --> 01:00:52,000 When Little Minnie heard this, she jumped up. 1182 01:00:52,417 --> 01:00:55,875 Wallace stood up, laughing like a

out. 1253 01:04:17,875 --> 01:04:19,375 See, the longer you refuse to sell, 1254 01:04:19,375 --> 01:04:20,708 the more control you have over your book. 1255 01:04:20,708 --> 01:04:23,000 Like-- like, they'll say they love your book and then you find 1256 01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:24,417 out all they were really interested in was the, 1257 01:04:24,417 --> 01:04:27,708 uh, the title or, you know, stuff about girls or... 1258 01:04:27,708 --> 01:04:30,083 But, um, see, I've been working with publisher for years, 1259 01:04:30,083 --> 01:04:32,917 and-- and they-- they feel, really feel that I'm ready for 1260 01:04:32,917 --> 01:04:34,375 my success. 1261 01:04:34,583 --> 01:04:36,167 But I tell them I won't do talk shows. 1262 01:04:36,167 --> 01:04:36,833 Hate those things. 1263 01:04:36,833 --> 01:04:38,667 I w-- I mean, I would never do Letterman. 1264 01:04:38,833 --> 01:04:39,583 Guy doesn't get it. 1265 01:04:39,583 --> 01:04:41,667 I mean, I-- I'd never become part of the problem. 1266 01:04:41,917 --> 01:04:43,667 'Cause I-- I mean, I'm not gonna become another Jimi Hendrix. 1267 01:04:43,667 --> 01:04:46,000 See, he wasn't ready for success and it killed him. 1268 01:04:46,250 --> 01:04:47,875 But maybe-- maybe I'll do radio interview but no, 1269 01:04:47,875 --> 01:04:50,333 uh, no TV. 1270 01:04:55,333 --> 01:04:57,167 What is it? 1271 01:05:00,167 -->

01:05:24,083 -I have been published. 1275 01:05:25,333 --> 01:05:26,667 -What do you mean? 1276 01:05:26,667 --> 01:05:28,500 -I have a publisher. 1277 01:05:28,500 --> 01:05:29,333 -You have a publisher? 1278 01:05:29,333 --> 01:05:30,375 -Yeah. 1279 01:05:30,375 --> 01:05:31,667 I mean, it's just a small company, 1280 01:05:31,667 --> 01:05:33,167 but yeah. 1281 01:05:35,000 --> 01:05:37,083 -How'd you do that? 1282 01:05:38,250 --> 01:05:39,333 -Oh, it was really cool. 1283 01:05:39,333 --> 01:05:40,500 Um... 1284 01:05:40,500 --> 01:05:42,375 one day, I was reading this magazine that, 1285 01:05:42,375 --> 01:05:45,083 um, that said that these guys were looking for unpublished 1286 01:05:45,083 --> 01:05:48,667 works, and so I sent them the copy of the book and, 1287 01:05:48,667 --> 01:05:52,000 uh, and they read it and they really liked it. 1288 01:05:52,750 --> 01:05:55,167 And they said that they couldn't sell a lot of copies but, 1289 01:05:55,167 --> 01:05:56,708 you know, they could sell a few and we could see what would 1290 01:05:56,708 --> 01:05:58,167 happen. 1291 01:05:59,333 --> 01:06:00,708 It was the happiest day of my life. 1292 01:06:00,708 --> 01:06:03,083 For me. 1293 01:06:04,083 --> 01:06:06,667 So, I went down, I sent them the book, 1294 01:06:06,667 --> 01:06:08,000 you know, um... 1295 01:06:08,000 --> 01:06:10,208 they read the book and, um... 1296 01:06:10,542 --> 01:06:12,542 and yeah, they ended up doing my book. 1297 01:06:16,833 --> 01:06:19,417 -But, y-- you got an advance, right? 1298 01:06:19,667 --> 01:06:22,667 -No, actually, I-- I, uh, I had to put up a little money for, 1299 01:06:22,667 --> 01:06:26,417 like, the rights or some legal fees or something. 1300 01:06:26,417 --> 01:06:27,375 -Oh.

cover myself. 1304 01:06:34,833 --> 01:06:36,667 They said not everybody was allowed to design the covers 1305 01:06:36,667 --> 01:06:38,542 themselves but that they liked my design, 1306 01:06:38,542 --> 01:06:40,042 so... 1307 01:06:43,417 --> 01:06:45,333 I mean, it's never gonna make the New York Times bestseller 1308 01:06:45,333 --> 01:06:46,875 list, but... 1309 01:06:47,083 --> 01:06:49,417

01:19:48,750 TV Guide and I check and see if something's on. 1561 01:19:48,750 --> 01:19:49,917 I'm gonna watch one program, like a good one, 1562 01:19:49,917 --> 01:19:52,500 like a science special or something and... 1563 01:19:54,500 --> 01:19:55,667 But, uh... 1564 01:19:55,667 --> 01:19:57,667 but I wanna watch whatever's on. 1565 01:19:58,208 --> 01:20:00,667 Even if I've seen it before, I... 1566 01:20:01,250 --> 01:20:04,000 'Cause it-- it fills this void in me. 1567 01:20:05,250 --> 01:20:06,833 'Cause-- 'cause nobody ever told me what to do. 1568 01:20:06,833 --> 01:20:08,333 I... 1569 01:20:10,417 --> 01:20:12,250 And so, like, I watch all night hoping that it tells me what to 1570 01:20:12,250 --> 01:20:13,750 do. 1571 01:20:14,917 --> 01:20:17,833 You know, I-- I don't talk about anything I haven't seen on TV. 1572 01:20:17,833 --> 01:20:21,083 I didn't read about birds or microwaves or... 1573 01:20:26,667 --> 01:20:28,917 See, it's like something broke in me... 1574 01:20:28,917 --> 01:20:30,917 a long time ago. 1575 01:20:34,375 --> 01:20:35,375 And I don't know what it was, 1576 01:20:35,375 --> 01:20:37,750 and-- and it's too hard for me to keep trying. 1577 01:20:39,167 --> 01:20:42,000 And there are a lot of things that I want to do with my life. 1578 01:20:48,917 --> 01:20:51,333 And I'm so far behind now, I'm never gonna catch up. 1579 01:20:51,333 --> 01:20:53,000 I just... 1580 01:20:53,833 --> 01:20:55,250 I just wish someone would tell me what to do, 1581 01:20:55,250 --> 01:20:59,333 that I should sit down and I should eat something and... 1582 01:21:00,167 --> 01:21:02,167 afterwards, they'll-- 1583 01:21:11,208 --> 01:21:14,000 afterwards, they'll, you know, answer my questions and tell me 1584 01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:15,667 how to do stuff and that if I screw up, it's okay, 1585 01:21:15,667 --> 01:21:16,833 'cause that's what people do. 1586 01:21:16,833 --> 01:21:18,500 Screwing up's a good thing! 1587 01:21:18,500 --> 01:21:20,542 It's-- it's good and... 1588 01:21:21,750 --> 01:21:23,833 And then, they'll tell me to go to bed and-- and go to sleep and 1589 01:21:23,833 --> 01:21:25,417 that... 1590 01:21:26,083 --> 01:21:27,167 you know, it'll be okay tomorrow, 1591 01:21:27,167 --> 01:21:29,750 we'll do something...else and, you know, 1592 01:21:29,750 --> 01:21:31,500 we'll have fun. 1593 01:21:35,000 --> 01:21:36,583 I'm sorry. 1594 01:21:58,417 --> 01:22:00,333 -You know, um... 1595 01:22:10,667 --> 01:22:12,167 I lie in bed at night, you know, 1596 01:22:12,167 --> 01:22:15,667 and I'm staring up at the ceiling and it's like... 1597 01:22:16,917 --> 01:22:20,500 the only thing that's gotten me through lately... 1598 01:22:21,500 --> 01:22:24,333 is the thought that I'd see you at work. 1599 01:22:25,833 --> 01:22:27,250 You know, at first, I thought, oh, 1600 01:22:27,250 --> 01:22:29,917 I just liked you 'cause, 1601 01:22:29,917 --> 01:22:32,583 you know, you were so much...fun, 1602

01:22:45,333 and then, you'd smile and you'd-- you'd look at me. 1606 01:22:46,500 --> 01:22:48,583 And I'd understand. 1607 01:22:56,583 --> 01:22:59,167 I don't know what happened. 1608 01:23:00,833
