“We discovered that it was OK to have a little high-brow as long you have a lot of low-brow. That’s entertainment value. The one thing you want to avoid is the middle brow, because the whole world is frigging middle brow at the moment.” – Jon Langford

George markets only for the forces of good for a living. He has a paid hobby that involves eating, drinking, and writing, things he’d do for free, which is almost what he’s doing it for. In a previous life he taught mostly illiterate and generally ungrateful college students how to write. He has been a body guard for Jodie Foster, a walk-on dancer with French avant garde troupe Maguy Marin, a film programmer, a judge at an Iron Chef style competition, a political activist, a textbook author, a bassist in a band, a two-time league winning fantasy baseball manager, a union local president, a pr flack helping run a red carpet at an Angelina Jolie event, a janitor, a chauffeur to folks from TC Boyle to Andrei Codrescu, a delivery man to Plato's Retreat, a reluctant writer of a non-snarky intro for Colin Powell, a radio DJ, a corn detassler, an escort van driver, a rock journalist, a lab assistant for a company that made everything from mouthwash to super skin lubricant, and even, once, a poet. His biggest brush with fame was when Julie Christie fondled his tie, a tie George Lopez belittled to 1000 people minutes later. The best thing about him is his wife. His dogs aren't bad, either.

Shea does look good under that fuzzy soft focus lens... Or did they airbrush it?
Shea field certainly looks better than Sally Field....
Shea Field? Like Wrigley Stadium?
You call yourself a Met fan?
Anon, note I used lowercase, as I know that's not really its name, but I wanted to make the Sally Field joke.
Question my sense of humor, not my Mets fandom.
I have a new pin-up poster for my wall.
You Mets fans better just hope that the conditions at Shea Stadium (or Sally Field) don't make Johan Santana balk.
Thank you, I'll be here all week! Try your waitress! Tip the buffet!
