The sixties were a sea change, culturally. There was a different feeling in the air from the first half of the decade to the second half. Everything changed in a two year period.

He actually went for the “Evil Twin” wheeze? Inspired. He could have a successful second career as a sitcom writer.

There’s a lot to unpack there, and many new questions raised.

“regional Queensland” does answer a lot of those questions, though.

(As in: “But why did he…?” “Regional Queensland.”
“But then he went and…?” “Regional Queensland.”
“But then he…” “Regional. Queensland.”)

“My initial reaction was to throw them in the bin, but we soaked them in half a bottle of disinfectant and then washed them, sanitised for several days in the sun, and I think they’ve come up [great] and no-one would be the wiser.”

Truman Capote told many a great story, and here’s one of them.

He was dining in a restaurant with a friend, when a lady came up and asked if she could have his autograph. He signed a napkin for her, and they had a brief, pleasant chat. She thanked him, and as she was about to return to her table, her angry, drunken husband staggered up.

He unzipped his trousers, and whipped it out, saying, “Autograph this!”

Mr Capote eyed the pathetic offering, and replied, “I could never autograph that, but maybe I could initial it.”

Here’s another.

Mr Capote was frequently recognized as he took walks about town. One friend who occasionally accompanied him was obviously V amusing. Whenever someone approached them, asking, “Are you Truman Capote?” and he naturally replied in the affirmative, this friend would say, “Now, George! You know you’re liable to get in trouble for impersonating him!” and dragged him away from the bewildered civilian.
