the night train to the Big Adios.

I had nothing to do with him
getting killed, if that's what you mean.
:39:40
- But you were business associates.

:39:45
Okay, so we worked together.

good stories. we were friends.

cooperation on every topic.

AII in all, a powerful
behind-the-scenes strange-o.

Patchett got me to photograph this cop
screwing this gorgeous slut named Lynn.
