I'm Not A Misogynist, So You Can Dispense With That. I Think I've Done Wonders For The Feminist Movement.

The Way I Go About Writing Records Is That I Make A Calendar Date To Start The New Record, So I Have Nothing. I Don't Have A Bunch Of Notes That I Bring Into The Office, I Start With Nothing At All.
