At 18 I was chased around the upstairs of a very swanky row house on Capitol Hill, at a very swanky A-Gay party, by a very drunk and staggering Lenny with his fly open. I was too young to know that one habitually offers oneself to genius. (Alas, this wisdom finally came when youth went.)
So my reaction at the time-- I ran using little tiny Bette Midler steps while squeaking and admonishing, "Mr. Bernstein!!"
when LB was a lad, he used to summer in the town i grew up in & give piano lessons to the locals. this was before i was born. AND....do you know that his family had been in the beauty supply business? yup, bernstein beauty supply, brookline, mass. i imagine it's gone now.
sorry, this comment was SO NOT titillating....no babylon here.
