JM,
Thanks for giving it a read. Yeah, at one point that ending had more justification. It ended with "Cool Arrow" * commenting about maybe he (the old man) felt bad about dissing Kerouac's stuff and that is why he hung himself. There actually was a man who hung himself at that place. I was working at the Austin-American-Statesman newspaper at the time, so I just sort of worked it backwards. I think it still has justification, but I would have to explain to much to do so, but I can understand what you mean. I'll consider.
*BTW The Spanish word I am mimicking is "culero" which of course sounds like "Cool Arrow and basically means "dick."
You picked up well on the cultural clash/similarity.
Thanks for the read, ’preciate it,
dale

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?
The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.
