#Interestingly That opening fanfare from “Jump Around” by House Of Pain? DJ Muggs ‘borrowed’ that from the 1963 release of “Harlem Shuffle” by Bob & Earl… #Bob&Earl #HarlemShuffle #HouseOfPain #JumpAround #OneHitWondered

Just finished @colsonwhitehead.com's #HarlemShuffle. So readable and smooth you sometimes forget you're in the hands of a master. I'd like to live like Carney and have a Pepper in my life.
My current read - I have enjoyed every one of Colson Whitehead's books that I have read. This one, too.

Ray Carney is the king of plausible deniability. #reading #books #HarlemShuffle

I’ve read so many #books via #Libby and #Hoopla apps over last 5 years (audio). #booksky Right now I’m bouncing between #Countofmontecristo and #HarlemShuffle.
Pepper ignoerd him and unlocked the front door.
"You igging me? I'm talking to you."
Pepper faced the man, with the resignation of a man discovering his toilet is still busted after the plumber had left.
#HarlemShuffle p.293 =)
Pepper said, "He used to say that you were going to be a doctor, you were so smart, but that you were smart enough to know you make more money being crooked."
"Who'd want to be a doctor?" Carney said.
#HarlemShuffle p.279 =)
"I'm saying a week later it's like it never happened."
…
Like it never happened? This struck Carney as pure cynicism. For instance, after the riot of '43, the pants his father had looted from Nelson's had lasted two years before the knees gave out. That was something.
#HarlemShuffle p.277 =)
"Put a white cop in jail for killing a black boy? Believe in the fucking tooth fairy."
"Buford knows what's up," Pepper said.
"Newspapers talking about 'looting,'" Buford continued. "Should ask the Indians about looting. This whole country's founded on taking other ppl's shit."
#HarlemShuffle p.277
No, it's best not to hear your grown friend talked to the way Ambrose Van Wyck addressed his son. The humiliation splashes everywhere. You'll get it on you & it'll become your own bad time, the bloody resurrection of your own childhood sadnesses.
#HarlemShuffle p.270
…places he'd walked by ever since he was a kid, & exposed them as fronts. The doorways were entrances into different cities—no, different entrances into one vast, secret city. Ever close, adjacent to all u know, just underneath. If u know where to look.

That time, places Carney had never seen before were suddenly rendered visible, like caves uncovered by low tide, branching into dark purpose. They'd never not been there, offering a hidden route to the underworld.
#HarlemShuffle p.253
"I'm not saying anything nefarious happened, only saying what happened." He gestured for a refill. "One thing I've learned in my job is that life is cheap, and when things start getting expensive, it gets cheaper still."
#HarlemShuffle p.244
As a salesman, Carney knew better than to make assumptions about a stranger's tastes. He tried not to speculate what the objects were used for, or where. They hinted at a domain beyond the missionary, off his map.
#HarlemShuffle p.196 =)
…it was a pickup-truck night, a try-to-outrun-bad-luck night. Might he need the truck bed? Carney didn't like the notion of dumping bodies in the back of his truck, deceased or not deceased or any which way. Once is bad luck; twice and it looks like you're getting accustomed.
#HarlemShuffle p.192
"That was a temporary setback," Zippo said. "If you call an opportunity to take stock and really think about how you can make your life better a 'setback.'"
Carney had never heard jail described that way.
#HarlemShuffle p.190 =)
He didn't know if Rose still lived there, but it turned out she did. Twenty years is a while. They were both older, fatter, and sadder —"which is the general trajectory"—and that was a nice couple of days.
#HarlemShuffle p.183 =)
…but Munson sat on Carney's Ellsworth safe. It was a modest number, dark gray w a levered handle. Carney didn't have an etiquette book in front of him, but he was sure it was bad manners to sit on a man's safe.
#HarlemShuffle p.150 =)
…the light emerging from the bend on 7th Ave as if cast from some terrible radiant creature lurching into view. He had this constant sense these days of pushing thru into somewhere else. Step outside your known streets & different laws apply, crooked logic.
#HarlemShuffle p.145
Learned gentlemen aside, Carney knew crime's hours when he saw them—dorvay was crooked heaven, when the straight world slept & the bent got to work.
He uphold the misspellings in his thoughts, in keeping w his loyalty to his mistakes.
#HarlemShuffle p.136 =)

Benjamin Franklin enthused over dorvay in his diaries, using the intermission to walk around the house naked & sketch inventions.
#HarlemShuffle p.136
It was a respite from the normal world & its demands, a hollow of private enterprise carved out of lost hours.
#HarlemShuffle p.135 *dorveille*

The British called this wakeful interval *the watch*, Professor Simonov explained, & in France it went by *dorvay*. You went over your accounts, whatever they may be—reading, praying, lovemaking, attending to pressing work, or overdue leisure.

"Then we woke around midnight for a few hours before the second phase of sleep, which lasted thru the morning. This was the body's natural rhythm, before Thomas Edison let us make our own schedule."
