Marsha and all: Here's a pointless sidetrack for you.
The other day I learned that "The Razor's Edge" changed Steve Martin's life. Apparently, his girlfriend thought he was in need of it. He grew up working at Disneyland and Knott's Berry Farm, doing very silly stuff but after he read that book something happened. He decided to major in philosophy and get a little more serious, even if it meant being serious about his comedy. He said that philosophy exposed him to absurdity and he realized that absurdity could be very funny. Boom, a new style of comedy was born. Maugham is in that music and he's in Martin's career.
