Never Met

I've never met the man, but someday, maybe. I love his books and I think, well, for some reason I'd just like to cook this son of a bitch a meal. I picture a bunch of writers in cheap beach chairs around a Weber grill, shooting the breeze. Concrete patio. Row house. Dark jugs of wine passed and discourse long into the night until someone tells us to keep it down. And if that happened Charlie, I picture him being the first to his feet telling the person to shut up and mind their own business. He interviewed himself at Nigel Bird's blog this weekend and if you missed it, go here now.
