I just bought PJ Harvey's new CD and noticed that she lifts a line from
JD's story Pretty Mouth and Green My Eyes in the first song, 'Angelene.'
It's the poem that Arthur remembers writing for his wife when they first
start going out "Rose my color is and white, Pretty mouth and green my
eyes."  I love PJ and I love Salinger.  I hope there's not a lawsuit
pending over this.
