    Blowhard David Larry Compares Melissa Beech to Norman Mailer, Vladimir Nabokov, and the Recently Passed David Foster Wallace, among others...

    Does this bozo realize that he just compared Melissa Beech to Norman Mailer and Beethoven?

    ------------------------------------

    There are various degrees to every profession...

    ... prostitution is no different.

    Literature has Norman Mailer, Vladimir Nabokov, David Foster Wallace... and also Jonathen Franzen, Dan Brown, Tucker Max.

    Lawyers have Alexander Hamilton, Clarence Darrow, Glenn Greenwald... and also Mark Geragos, Alberto Gonzales, uh, Eliot Spitzer

    Musicians count among their members Ludwig von Beethoven, Maurice Ravel, Jimi Hendrix... and also Poison, Milli Vanilli, and the Backstreet Boys.

    And with yer Prostitutes, you have the street-walking crack whores... and also the Melissa Beeches.

    -- David Larry
