Notes & Erratta

Posted by Maximum Fun on 28th August 2006

A few clarifications, offered by my parents, regarding my piece in the Metro:

* My mother wanted to clarify that when she got arrested for bank robbery, there was NO LSD in the car. It was hash, and they were selling it to get a friend out of the hospital.

* My father wanted to clarify that he wasn’t in the hospital for six months or so, but for a couple days. He’s crazy, not insane.

I’d like to point out that both of these erroneous assertions on my part were reprinted directly from James Frey’s bestselling memoir “My Friend Leonard,” as promoted on The Sound of Young America.
