I interviewed James Ellroy, the great American noir novelist, at La's venerable Pacific Dining Car in April 2001.

When he looked at my full head of 33 year-old hair, his eyes narrowed: "That thing on your head real or a rug?" "Real," I replied. Ellroy exhaled for what seemed like a full minute, then murmured: "Cocksucker." We were off and running.
