Michael Schorr:... - to his son David - I'm not sure I needed to buy this cake.. it looked so good..
David: .. it looks good.. it looks fine.. it looks good..
Michael schorr: .. it might taste rather sweet.. it's carrot cake.. David.. I don't know.. see, I was so RELIEVED when this school thing was over.. when you could simply with your mother and I and do your.. hahaha.. what is it .. autodidactic .. that is what your grandfather would have called it.. when you simply did these amazing studies you did on your own.. I wish i'd read more henry james.. still do.. I mean your reading HENRY JAMES.. I mean, your so smart, you don't need to go to university.. I always thought that.. you could teach English at a university.. you study Shakespeare.. amazing renditions of Hamlet I hear you do in the basement.. finnegans wake.. I once joked if I went to prison maybe I'd read finnegans wake.. you STUDY finnegans wake.. you said.. ahh.. yes... my memories coming back.. always thought you could write your way into any university when you mentioned the connection between marshall mcCluhan and finnegans wake..
david schorr: .. thanks.. thanks a lot... it was a quote from marshall mcCluhan that he'd be happy for his own works to be merely a footnote to finnegans wake.. he said the same in relation to Harold Innis's writing..
Michael schorr: .. now who is Harold innis.. I want to read Harold innis...
david schorr: .. a long book of his was once available for free on the internet.. as an e-text..
Michael shorr: .. see your so smart.. I love you so much.. I just .. these ISIS women.. ISIS is women.. ISIS is made up of women.. i'm not sure when the truth will come out.. it has to.. you're RIGHT.. maybe it just.. won't?.. I feel a .. I THOUGHT.. a threshold .. and yet.. maybe it'll be a long long time before the media gets the TRUTH out about ISIS.... but.. I just.. I DON't WANT you to have to be man of ISIS anymore.. I want the responsibility to lie with the women of ISIS... your older parents.. the parents who were.. so into this HORRIBLE school thing.. I think their in Russia right now.. i'm not sure.. the school system might have a lot to do with the schools of Russia..
David Schorr: .. I think you have a strong point their.. Soviet industrialism.. the learning factory..
Michael Schorr: .. yes .. your mother.. your REAL mother bought that book once... the other parents.. i'm so SORRY this happened.. I feel like a deadbeat dad.. those other parents.. I think their in.. your mother got rather MEAN.. rather mean-spirited didn't she.. I think those parents are both in Russia now.. their part of the Russian legacy.. I think it's their lot to suffer greatly in Russia now.. I'm sorry.. you sow as you reap.. I'm rather unforgiving toward them but I know you'll forgive them..
David Schorr: i'm going to be regretting some of the horrible HORRIBLE things I said about them..
Michael Schorr: but I don't WANT you to have to regret.. DECADES of your life were stolen from you by school.. this was TIME-theft .. time was stolen from your life.. it happened with me too.. David.. it happened with me too.. the movies mattered so much to me when I was a young boy.. I always had money to go to movies.. I went to see a lot of westerns.. you know that.. loved those singing cowboys .. loved gene autrey.. saw a lot of those old great serials.. saw the old Superman serials with Kirk Alyn.. saw the old Batman and Robin serials.. it was like television.. movies were like back then.. you went again and again and again.. and what they want to do with movies .. to LITERATURE.. is so HORRIFIC.. you NEEDED that time school high school STOLE from you .. you NEEDED it.. you wanted to be a lawyer in your twenties didn't you.. you could have studied noam Chomsky as a lawyer.. all your studies which you did ANYWAY .. in linguistics.. James Joyce.. Ulysses .. Henry James..
David Schorr: Virginia Woolf..
Michael Schorr: .. ahh... never read her.. maybe I will someday.. you could have read all these works as a LAWYER .. if only school hadn't interfered.. it's just.. the women of ISIS are doing great things.. we'll just see.. you take the failures of the world as a personal responsibility.. and that responsibility is MY responsibility not yours.. we'll see what the amazons of ISIS come up with next...
