Chapter 8

The cold air outside makes his nose and lip hurt where he got hit.He waits about 10 minutes for a train. Usually he buys 4 magazines but he just wasn't in the mood. A fine woman gets on train he sits right beside him. Women kill him they really do. They leave there bags in the middle f the asile. and Holden refers to himself as quite sexy (54). The lady ends up being Ernest Morrows mom. He's the biggest bastard. After his shower he likes running around snapping people with his wet towel. Holden tells her his name is Rudolf Schmidt the school's janitor. He's now shooting in bull about. He's mom is glad he's doing good because her son isn't much of a mixer he's sensative. Holden says he's as sensative as a toliet seat. He offered her a smoke and lit it for her. She had the charm and sex appeal too. Holden wanted to get them drinks but the club train was closed. He goes on to say he has a brain tumor and had surgery. She hopes no illness has hit his family and keeps calling him Ruldolf. She invites him to comes visit Ernie this summer. But he says he can't because he's going to South America with his grandma. Eventhough he wouldn't visit Marrow for all the money in the world, even if he was depressed.

Blows my mind how someone can lie as easily as Holden does. And not even feel guilty about it!
