We bought a small ordsprog

en We bought a small house in Boston and we got it set up and had everything perfectly arranged until we realized we really only had one seat in the house that had sufficient light for reading and every night there was a battle of who could race to this chair faster with a reading book and I was always losing being the smallest.

en I started reading this book about two months ago, because we meet once a week so it takes a while to get through it. So two months ago I started reading it and the young girl came back and said 'I got the book, I borrowed it from my teacher at school and I'm reading it.' The next thing I know she was done, so she was trying to tell the story as we were going along, but it was great.

en I was doing a show in Fife, Alabama last year. After the show I went to a Waffle House. I'm not proud of it, I was hungry. And I'm alone, I'm eating and I'm reading a book, right? Waitress walks over to me:
"Hey, whatcha readin' for?"
Isn't that the weirdest fucking question you've ever heard? Not what am I readING, but what am I reading FOR? Well, godammit, ya stumped me! Why do I read? Well... hmmm... I dunno... I guess I read for a lot of reasons, and the main one is so I don't end up being a fucking waffle waitress.
