Chasing the History of GAY BARS in Key West!!! / FINDING that Tennessee Williams's Best Key West Friend "Texas Kate" (Schweppe) Sharp, Moldawer, and later McNamara's ERSATZ LOVER, Michael Moye, is Still HIDING in DARKEST AFRICA -- Kate Grew Up in Atlanta, BEST FRIENDS with Frank Hawkins Kenan and James Graham Kenan!!! / And MORE:

 





Start with the empirical pattern. Across multiple international indices—human development, happiness, corruption, education, and crime—Northern European countries consistently rank near the top (UNDP, 2023; Transparency International, 2023; World Happiness Report, 2024).

These same countries also exhibit high levels of secularization. In Sweden and the Czech Republic, for example, large portions of the population identify as non-religious or atheist (Pew Research Center, 2018). If religion were the indispensable engine of morality, these societies should be in visible decline. They are not.

A Purdue lawyer said most of the lawsuits against the company over opioids did not include specific financial claims. But the ones in those that did totaled over $40 trillion in damages. Overall, the settlements are worth more than $50 billion, and most of the money is to be used to address the overdose epidemic. Under the Purdue deal, members of the Sackler family will be shielded from lawsuits over opioids from those who agree to the payments.

Tennessee Williams was addicted to their Valium, his attorney John Eastman who first had John Lennon murdered to enrich Paul McCartney, later had Tennessee murdered with the CIA, FBI, Episcopal Church and Republican Party.

Paul McCartney's current wife, Nancy Shevell's family's trucking company partnered with my Kenan family's Kenan Transport (now Kenan Advantage Group).

Dame Jillian Sackler often partied on John Eastman's Estate with Alec and Hilaria Baldwin . . . and NONE of the Sacklers will be actually punished -- the reduced fines are to be paid from FUTURE profits!!!

Walking on Glass: A Memoir of the Later Days of Tennessee Williams: Chapter 11: Meeting Texas Kate



Tennessee Williams, Texas Kate, and Tennessee's sister, Rose Williams at the 1979 Kennedy Center Honors -- and Michael Moye at that time (below):








Texas Kate grew up in Atlanta, Georgia, her parents were CLOSE FRIENDS with the families of both Frank Hawkins Kenan and James Graham Kenan, so at THAT TIME she knew more about the wealthy Kenans than I did!!!


And it was Michael Moye who got me back in touch with David Wolkowsky -- and HIS REVIEW (I'd known David since the mid-1970s when I first started visiting Key West while in business in Cape May), is STILL my favorite -- so today, I added it to my Memoir:


REVIEWS:



John LahrThe New Yorker, and author of Tennessee Williams: Mad Pilgrimage of the Flesh:

"I wasn't intending to read every word of your memoir; but it says something about how well you wrote it, that I did . . . you've found a very crisp and compelling style. And you come through vividly in it."


Thomas KeithEditor of Tennessee Williams's books for New Directions Publishing:

"Scott has done a beautiful job with his memoir. What makes it stand out from previous memoirs about Williams is its integrity, and the depth to which Scott reveals his own situation, mental health problems, fears, and hopes.

"Because of that integrity, the day-to-day descriptions of life with Williams and Scott's take on the tangle of problems Williams faced near the end of his life are that much more insightful. I also happen to like Scott's ability to describe a person or set a scene--even his thread of commentary on weather, light, and seasons informs us about the sensitivities of the man telling this story."



Dr. Kenneth HolditchWilliams Scholar and Professor Emeritus at the University of New Orleans:

"Having finished your manuscript, I am confirmed in my initial judgment that this is a very fine work indeed. Tennessee really comes alive in your narrative, as do other personages, a few of whom I knew.

"Let me be truthful and say that I put off reading your work because I have read so many–both published and in manuscript–that were handed to me and been much too often disappointed in what I read. That was not the case with your book. I found it spell-binding and raced on through it at the expense of my chores."



Dr. Larry MyersPlaywright/Associate ProfessorSt John's University/Williams Friend & Scholar (and SEXUAL LOVER):

"Your book much seems channeled from some astral plane or higher consciousness. When I read it, HE IS HERE!"



David WolkowskyLargest Landowner in Key West and Its VISIONARY / Largest Collector of Tennessee's Paintings:

"He captured all of it, the whole shooting match, Scott nailed it."





I GUESS I'll have to contact the TOP EDITORS of The New York Times , tomorrow!!!
