MARLON NOIR, BLOG REPORTER, Episode 9: 
Dollface - never, and I mean never, raise the shades. They call me Marlon Noir, not Marlon Solarium! Darkness, baby, darkness is what keeps my creative juices flowing. And speaking of juices - Dollface, be a good little 
blond bombshell and pour me a martini on your way out. And while you’re out, stop at QuickieMart and get me 6 Slim Jim’s, a pack of Camel, and some Tums. And close the door quietly.
How long does it take to get rid of a blonde?
Scott Shepard . . . One of my correspondents sends me this news over the wire service:
Brother Scott Shepard will be going under the knife on Jan. 15 to repair/replace his hip which was pretty much destroyed when he took that fall and has caused him to be in pain ever since. He is looking forward to hopefully being relieved of that burden with the surgery and seems to have all his ducks in a row as far as a good surgeon and good people who will take care of him during the lengthy recoup that he will have to go through. This will not be an "ordinary" hip operation. Anyway, I'm not at home right now but I'll send you the details on where he can be reached so that maybe a few of the Brothers can bolster his spirits with some well wishes during this difficult time.
All this worrying about Scott has me feeling hungry. I wonder where blonde-for-brains is with my food? Wait, I hear footsteps, must be her.
"Is my little sugar boy Marlon hungry? I have some Slim-Jimmy’s and Cam-eys and Tum-eys for my sweet wittle Marly"
"Yeah, baby, that’s what I’m talkin’ about"

UPDATE ON SCOTT SHEPARD - FROM MARK McGANN, January 2, 2008:
"Another busy day LARRY?
I do have an e mail address for Scott and it is as you describe. He also has the blog address but Scott is pretty much computer illiterate, but learning, courtesy of it pretty much being required at his relatively new job and by life in general anymore. It doesn't really matter because he will be convalescing at the home of a couple he knows and I don't yet have their e mail address but will give it to you when I get it. I was kind of thinking the whole well wishing thing could come as a surprise but I'll leave that with you.
You got a thing for Candy or what?
SCOTT SHEPARD UPDATE FROM MARLON, January 4, 2008:
"Hey Larry,
You're getting pretty good at this Bogartesque kind of writing but... "Marly"? Anyway, Scott tells me that from 1/18 to about 3/1 he will be convalescing at the home of his friends
Lynn (actually a guys name) & Diana Felber
17520 Scenic Heights Drive
Sonora, CA 95370
209-586-4355
Scott's cell is 925-200-9925 but he says there is no signal at the Felber's house so if anybody wants to call him on the cell better do it before the 18th. Sugery is the 15th. So see if you can rally the troops to call, send cards, flowers, whatever because I for one know what it's like to be all (edited for content) and hear from friends who you haven't heard from in ages. It's a good thing
Marlon
TO MARLON: Thanks, Marly
