Ask David Berman, Week Two 

Note: You should order David's book, Actual Air if you haven't already.

This week's question: If Jesus were living now, in our modern times, do you think he would dress the same as he did back then or would he have a little different look? Do you think people might be freaked out if he had a goatee?

David's Answer: Would he have caught Eric Claptons's little boy w hen he fell out that window, that window to the Unplugged session career revival, the grammies, and afterward? In a fix could Jesus get down on all fours in a parking lot and turn himself into a negligible compact car, thus avoiding capture?
Wo uld he idly drive himslef to the cape and help an embittered shrimpboat captain perform euthanasia on a Canadian ketchup baron in rough international waters? The answers to these questions is "yes."


More from David next week. Please send your questions here...
