i just love kurt vonnegut. he went to cornell as youknow . >> anyway, that was such a beautiful image and you have so many of them . and if you read the book, there's hundreds of these kinds of things but i don't want to miss the one with marlon brando. you tried to get marlon brando on and i love how you missed today's which almost everybody would have skipped the date but to tell that story that's just wonderful. >> it's appropriate that i'm doing this from a bookstore because i finished the story on joe banana and i want to use a little bit of the godfather and normally it's a simple request through the studio and one day brando himself calls, how is joe banana okay with using this but he and i then began a long conversation over weeks and months. icall him up and wish him happy birthday . and he said what is this was celebrating birthdays, animals don't celebrate birthdays. i'm just calling to wish you a happy birthday. and then another time he would call me up and i don't know if it's a generational thing
