gold spoke at my college and he was vaguely creepy and weird. didn't like him so much after that.

also once a long time ago i went with my family to an indonesian place he recommended, and i thought it would be a genius idea to order fried tofu. i like tofu! i like fried things! but i do not like huge monolithic chunk of tofu deep-fried to death, looking like a creature on the plate.

I never met him. He was the crosstown rival when I worked at the newspaper, and coworkers of mine used to get into weird catfights with him.

I like his writing. Writers are scary.
