Well, if you stood the pair of us [me and my fictional alter-ego, Sam Edwine] side by side and told him to shut the fuck up, you couldn’t tell us apart. His is the higher native intelligence, while I behave better. […] I did, once, however, like Sam Edwine, pass around pirated mimeographs of The Anarchist Cookbook to an excitable bunch of grad students in Red China, resulting in at least one of them being shot in the back of the head point-blank in a public execution. But Sam cackled about it, and I feel like a horrible shit. I never ate way too many psilocybin mushrooms in the Oaxacan jungle, stumbled on a man dying in the road, and failed to remember my Spanish grammar, because, unlike Sam Edwine, I never had any Spanish grammar in the first place. In fact, he speaks a lot more languages than I do. But I write better — otherwise he’d be answering this question about me instead of vice-versa.
