Ah, the inner voice and the outer persona. They never do match.
I liked Art moderately in person. He was quiet. He lived politely in his little work hole and made the correct inoffensive strategic noises. Occasionally he wasfunny.

Now, however, I'm positively devoted to this ex coworker I never really knew and probably never will as I decided I rather liked him instead of him deciding he rather liked me and some people are like cats and just don't work that way. Why the devotion? I have discovered that Art in print is a writer of first rate comedy. I'm under the impression he really wants to be Henry Miller in Tropic of Cancer,which I grant you, if it is funny at all, is somewhat gross black and rutting humor, but then I'm amused by strange things.
