Wouldn't have arsed myself w/ this as we are beyond Burroughs' 100th birthday (barely) but noticed that Loomis Dean
*, an acquaintance of my mother whom I met a couple of times when we lived in Paris,
shot all the pics, several unpublished.

All memoir & nostalgia around here; my having once been to dinner w/ the photog (at a place around the corner from where we lived famed for its frog legs) is the only justification for bothering.
*Turns out we shared a birthday, if not the yr. Hmmm ... this seems
oddly familiar ...

You wouldn't think sharing frog legs could have that much of an influence. (Ha ha, just kidding: We know only too well nothing new or even vaguely original has happened for quite a while now.)
