I woke up 3 hours before sunrise to cry some more. Suddenly I had to see The Maltese Falcon. Sydney Greenstreet's bark of a laugh? "Gunsel" getting by the 1941 censors twice? No, I needed to hear Humphrey Bogart say he'll have some rotten nights after he turns Mary Astor in, "but that'll pass."

Just came across the character Mr. Gutzman in Chapter XXII of Daniel Pinkwater's _The Snarkout Boys and the Avocado of Death_ 🤣 Mr. Gutzman "I'd like to buy that bird."
