First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros is being hosted by Bibliophile By The Sea-- as it says, you pick a book and post the opening paragraph and see if other people would like to read the book based on its opener.
Yes, I like this series... I like Midnight Louie, although at times for a male, he can be rather... shall we say, catty. I also wish I had Temple Barr's shoe collection. And those Fontana brothers!
I cannot say why I am always hip-deep in dames.
Not that I object to said state.
It is just that I am a noir kind of guy, inside and out. My singing voice is more scat than lyrics, and my personal theme song would have to be "There Is Nothing Like A Dame."
I admit it. I am a shameless admirer of the female of the species. Any species. Of course, not all females are dames. Some are little dolls, like my petite roommate, Temple Barr.
The difference between dames and little dolls? Dames can take care of themselves, period. Little dolls can take care of themselves also, but they are not averse to letting the male of the species think that they have an occasional role in the Master Plan too.
