?his big dome is full of original ideas" my big dome often appears to have a mind of its own too.

"I think when you are Salman Rushdie, you must get bored with people who always want to talk to you about literature."

that makes sense. reminds me of the time frazier's dad befriended a JD Salinger like character, who would go out to ballgames with Martie much to the chagrin of Niles and Frazier, who fancied themselves far more appropriate friends for the great writer than their plebeian pop. while waiting for dad and the great man to return home for dinner, a frustrated Frazier throws up his arms and exclaims: maybe they bumped into salman rushdie and went out for margaritas!

It’s so hard to keep track of, thanks half-desi for sharing the article. Enjoyed this bit, “I think when you are Salman Rushdie, you must get bored with people who always want to talk to you about literature.”

We almost missed his woman of last summer:

An article from the Daily Mail:

another Rushdie related article:

Beauty and the Brain: So, what attracted you to a short, balding egomaniac? http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/news/beauty-and-the-brain-so-what-attracted-you-to-a-short-balding-egomaniac-1808973.html

but still no authoritative answers on his charm.

gurmando is probably closest

I guess we're saying he's a cunning linguist.

Why don’t most folks understand that sexy is between the ears? My man is balding,but his big dome is full of original ideas and witticisms. Talent combined with intelligence and compassion—very sexy.

rushdie may have a 12 inch wand

I guess we're saying he's a cunning linguist.
