- Hamm:Open the window.
- Clov:What for?
- Hamm:I want to hear the sea.
- Clov:You wouldn't hear it.
- Hamm:Even if you opened the window?
- Clov:No.
- Hamm:Than it's not worth while opening it?
- Clov:No.
- Hamm:Than open it! (Clov gets up on the ladder, opens the window. Pause.) Have you opened it?
- Clov:Yes. (Pause.)
- Hamm:You swear you've opened it?
- Clov:Yes.
- Hamm:Well...! (Pause.) It must be very calm.

I love Louis C.K. His show, Louie, is something else. For most stories (the romantic comedy for example) there’s a common narrative. People fall in love, have a bad patch, and get back together. And soon enough, there’s a movement to resist that narrative by creating its opposite. For a while, that’s pretty new and exciting, but eventually the anti-narratives get cliche, too. What I respect most about Louis, as a storyteller, is that he tells common stories but in a way that I’ve never seen before.
And, like, he’s funny.

I’m thinking of starting a kitty, or maybe a riff on a Tontine. A bunch of writers working on projects each put in, say $200. Whoever does not produce the agreed upon amount of work by the predetermined deadline loses his or her $200, which is then divided among or between the writers who do make the deadline.
Fantastic idea. Now to find some more writerly friends.
