The following was in his obit this morning:
'Salinger's alleged adoration of children apparently did not extend to his own. In 2000, daughter Margaret Salinger's "Dreamcatcher" portrayed the writer as an unpleasant recluse who drank his own urine and spoke in tongues.'

Just being an unpleasant recluse would be cool enough.
Drinking my own urine? Speaking in tongues?
I salute you JD Salinger!!
(And now I want a pastrami on rye! With mustard)
Hunter S. Thompson once apparently met his agent at the gate of his house with a gun...sounds like he and Salinger would've gotten along fabulously.
