Like all good trashy Internet reading,* FootNotes''. is a hybrid of observation and perception... detail and overview... disclosure and omission. I don't tell you everything, in other words. I don't think I have to. And not everything I do tell you is 100o/o factual, lOOo/o of the time. Birds didn't really sit outside the window of my apartment and talk to me, for instance. I never really spit in my boss's coffee. Matt Lauer wasn't really uninvited to my wedding. Here in'· FootNotes Land* there is a literal account of fact... and there is gentle manipulation of fact for the sake of art. I'll give you credit for being able to tell the difference.(Rafter," BioStuff").
