Zelda Fitzgerald

Hemingway - The Sex Therapist ?

In A Movable Feast Hemingway counseled F. Scott Fitzgerald in Michaud's Cafe in France about his size. Paraphrased: "Scott said he had something very important to ask me. It meant more than anything in the world to him."

F "You know I never slept with anyone except Zelda."

H "No, I did not."

F "Zelda said that how I was built, I could never make any woman happy. She said it was a matter of measurements. I have never felt the same since she said that and I need to know truly."

H "Come to the office."

F "Where ?"

H "Le water"

Both came back to the table.

H "You are fine. There is nothing wrong with you. You view yourself from above and look forshortened. We will go to the Louvre and look at the statues."

Afterwards, Fitzgerald was still in doubt about himself.

H "It is not basically a question of size in repose. It is the size that it becomes. It is also a question of angle."

F "But after what Zelda said..."

H "Forget what Zelda said."

Temporary Flight Restrictions

A Piggott Blogger from Tulsa (a pilot) has sent proof of the President's travel path:

See the TFR (above) which appear as dark red circles, boxes, etc. which were in place, yesterday, the 6th, to cover the president's travels. They are defined laterally and extend up to 18,000 feet. No aircraft may enter except if on a flight plan and in communication with the ground.



Marine 1

Monday afternoon, 6 September, a contingent of Sikorsky helicopters flew directly over Piggott. Perhaps they were stand-by protection and emergency evacuation for President Bush who was visiting in Poplar Bluff, MO at this time.

2 Blackhawks led the group North, Northwest, followed by 2 Blackhawks behind and further East of them, finally followed up-the-middle by what appeared to be a Sikorsky VH-92, Marine 1.

Their return path 2-3 hours later was SSE in same previous pattern........
