“Many people hear voices when no one is there. Some of them are called mad and are shut up in rooms where they stare at the walls all day. Others are called writers and they do pretty much the same thing.”

Too funny Alan. I swear, some folks have way too much time on their hands when they think of stuff like this.
I'm glad they work so hard at it though.

Oh, come now - there aren't any that are worse than the short, ugly inmate.
