2. Well, this is mostly a silly copy cat poll, but yeah I like Hemingway.
He could say a lot in a few words. People put him down by saying plenty of writers write like Hemingway, but we must remember they are copying Hemingway.

Anyway, he once wrote, "Got tight last night on absinthe. Did knife tricks." Personally, I can think of no better time to be doing knife tricks, than while tight on absinthe.

7. I like him just fine.
I don't know, it might be a nostalgic thing because I really him and Fitzgerald and Sinclair Lewis at the same time and it might just be a time of life kind of thing

9. Let me tell you a little secret.
This is a copycat of Oedipus Rex's poll thread.
