Paint chips ... yeah ... I may have eaten ... with my potato chips ... 
> Did you eat alot of paint chips as a kid?
No, but you apparently howl at the moon!
And you sure love howling at me.
That's OK ... I am SORT of used to it by now.
Actually I MAY have gotten into some paint chips.
Lead was an ingredient in paint when I was young.
Wait was I ever young?
Sure I was, and I am again.
Falling in love makes you young.
Neil Young knew that ...
Now I know that ... again.
Having said that, I am outta here for now.

That may be true.
But at least I don't post on message boards like I'm writing an Ernest Hemingway novel.

Ernest Hemingway is my idol ... an incredible life, then crushing depression ... and his life ends at 61 in July, 1961 ...
> That may be true.

Hemingway is my idol -- a reporter turned novelist.
Years ago, I was employed as a newspaper and wire-service reporter -- "The Daily Oklahoman", then United Press International.
Have you read about Hemingway's life? He was a man's man.
He won the Nobel Prize as well as the Pulitzer Prize.
His style was crisp, simple ... few adjectives or adverbs.
He wrote as a reporter would.
Unfortunately, he suffered from depression all his life. It crushed his spirit.
Ultimately, this great artist ended his life with a shotgun at the age of 61.
Fortunately, drugs are now available for people like me who suffer manic-depressive illness or bipolar disorder. Little help was available for Ernest Hemingway more than 40 years ago.
I am lucky, but I am no Hemingway. And I never will be.
But I sure know what Hemingway went through emotionally.
It is the "black dog" as Winston Churchill describes it.
In my opinion, Hemingway was the greatest American writer of the 20th century. His works are timeless.
To even be mentioned in the same sentence with Hemingway is the greatest compliment I have ever received.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Tony
Ernest Hemingway – Biography
Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961), born in Oak Park, Illinois, started his career as a writer in a newspaper office in Kansas City at the age of seventeen. After the United States entered the First World War, he joined a volunteer ambulance unit in the Italian army. Serving at the front, he was wounded, was decorated by the Italian Government, and spent considerable time in hospitals. After his return to the United States, he became a reporter for Canadian and American newspapers and was soon sent back to Europe to cover such events as the Greek Revolution.
During the twenties, Hemingway became a member of the group of expatriate Americans in Paris, which he described in his first important work, The Sun Also Rises (1926). Equally successful was A Farewell to Arms (1929), the study of an American ambulance officer's disillusionment in the war and his role as a deserter. Hemingway used his experiences as a reporter during the civil war in Spain as the background for his most ambitious novel, For Whom the Bell Tolls (1940). Among his later works, the most outstanding is the short novel, The Old Man and the Sea (1952), the story of an old fisherman's journey, his long and lonely struggle with a fish and the sea, and his victory in defeat.
Hemingway - himself a great sportsman - liked to portray soldiers, hunters, bullfighters - tough, at times primitive people whose courage and honesty are set against the brutal ways of modern society, and who in this confrontation lose hope and faith. His straightforward prose, his spare dialogue, and his predilection for understatement are particularly effective in his short stories, some of which are collected in Men Without Women (1927) and The Fifth Column and the First Forty-Nine Stories (1938). Hemingway died in Idaho in 1961.

Ernest Hemingway - soundsa a lot like E. A. Poe
Edgar Allen Poe (1809-1849), American poet, a master of the horror tale, credited with practically inventing the detective story.
<blockquote>
Edgar Allan Poe suffered from bouts of depression and madness, and he attempted suicide in 1848.
In September the following year he disappeared for three days after a drink at a birthday party and on his way to visit his new fiancée in Richmond. He turned up in a delirious condition in Baltimore gutter and died on October 7, 1849.
