Maybe, but afterwards they're going to the fux0red-up couples conference to get their awards.

Point VERY well taken (and the Fitzgeralds are also tagging along).

You're a very nice person.

Why thank you! (It's not like he's exactly been charitable to my favorite artists, you know.) (So, by extension, this guy's already said a sort of "fuck you" to ME.)

Anyway -- Langston Hughes! Jaunty hat! Dashing and debonair!

(Another "based on physical appearance I MUST check out their works"/"I so shallow" author: Zora Neale Hurston. SO cool and poised.)

Isabel Allende looks like she could have Rita Moreno play present-day her in her biopic. And young W.H. Auden looks like my maternal grandpa looked like when he was in his forties, according to pictures I've seen of him (Grandpa).
