Haven't read much of Kinky so far (and especially dislike the habit of his main character to re-light cigars from the day before!), but he seems to be a good guy. I do appreciate some of his humor.
It's good to see, he likes Bukowski. Thanks hooch!
(does he know, that Buk is supposed to hate jews? HaHa! Only joking about a bad joke - it's what they call 'meta-humor'. Hold on kids! Kinky was funny about that 'jew-thing' too! - and even made a provocative song about it!)
