Carl Luce

I just met up with old Carl Luce, and we had an interesting conversation, to say the least. We met up at the Wicker Bar in this swanky Seton Hotel.


Well, first off, he wasn't that interested in having an intellectual discussion, or even talking about goddam sex, for that matter. He talked about how he has a new Chinese girlfriend and how Eastern philosophy regards sex as both a physical and spiritual experience, and I sort of agree. I mean, I really have to care about the person to actually... you know.

We then talked about how his dad's a psychoanalyst and I asked him some questions about what psychoanalysis is like. Probably nothing like those goddam personality tests you see online. I mean, really, if people really want any insight into what they're like, shouldn't they take the time to talk to someone who's trained in that stuff? The next step after that is self-medicating yourself with drugs. At least see a doctor so you can be healthy and stuff! But the thing is, I don't really mind drinking or smoking once in a while. I mean, it is good stress relief, and I'm not gonna goddam die or anything. I'm not one of those people who's constantly drunk or high or whatever. I'm not like that at all. Really, I'm not.
