Hemmingway has an interesting story around the film The Sun Also Rises, loosely based on his own experiences with a social group he was part of. For sure, life would have been far more interesting in those days with those people than it is with the 'shoved down your throat' Jenner bunch.

Nearly all my favorites right there.

Thank god I am oblivious to the opinions of others while caught in the blinding splendor of my own cleverness.
