Life: an excuse for an anecdote. Thinking of anecdotes as accessories, carried in a book strap. The title tells you everything you need to know and conveys the essential point. Good title: leaves you wanting more. Bad title: the book stays closed.
Could we walk around with typed pages of conversations on our straps? Or maybe just a calling card: “Here is what I’m about.” A real time saver. Like anecdotes. Just the funny or interesting bits. None of the filler. Andy Warhol would have been a totally different kind of filmmaker if he’d used a filter.
