What. The. Fuck. Have. I. Just. Read. ?

A wild ride indeed, my friend.

Are we gonna buy this whole Mary Smith thing?

Walden combined with awful shyness and moving outside himself i s a mood, anyway.

This is by far the most wild ride that a college S&G article has ever taken me on. And given the vast array of horrors in my article clippings tag, that’s saying something.

Ok, canon. 😎

only referring to them as “Paul Simon (mustache)” and “Art Garfunkle (weird hair)” from now on.

The Daily Pennsylvanian, 10/28/68

And the other idiot still asking himself 50 years later or so why didn't he write him.

"In May of ’69, Mike took the film to Rome, and Paul’s writing changed from “I know your part’ll go fine”—words of a deep friendship (“The Only Living Boy in New York”)—to “Why don’t you write me?”—words of frustration.

(...)

Why didn’t I write him? No doubt Paul and I enriched each other’s lives immeasurably. Where could the crazy notion come from of moving on from this wonderful duo? From hurt. From crazy motion. If Paul felt Mike had given me the means to “sock it to him,” maybe I was doing just that. Why didn’t I write him? Who are these two sensitive Jewish boys whose mothers loved them so much? Who throws the stone and who throws the return stone? Whose stone is imagined? Whose real?"

Of course, taken from What Is It All but Luminous: Notes From An Underground Man by Artie himself.
