Incredibly no. It's one of the things like bout you most.
Everyone loves an optimist.
Except pessimists but that's okay.
If I felt envy every time a friend did better than me I think I'd have gone nuts by now (more nuts?) I guess I do feel it a bit, but generally I'm delighted when people do well. If I had a hand in it even more so.
I suppose this is partly because I'm sort of resigned that if I do succed at writing it's going to be the long route for me. So I'm into enjoying it and being jealous would just distract from that.
Unless of course that person succeding is a bit of a dick.
And lay off Bett Middler and Carli Simon capiche they're ace and you haven't been through what they have.
I am also hetrosexual (I hope).
Why I oughta! For the Boys and Beaches are ace, she even does a decent version of Instant Karma.

Either way, it's a shit song, so no one wins.
I like Bette Midler!
I like most American Jewish mumsy types.
I want one.
Scenes From A Mall. 
Don't think I've seen it though.

Mall.
Mall is a horrible word, isn't it? It sounds just awful. Mall. Mall.Mall.Mall.Mall.
I like it pronounced the American way, like maul. But the English way sets my teeth on edge.

Ha!
I believe Woody Allen as punishment for being a perv is sentenced to 20 years of making rubbish films with other celebs.
Aw. He not a perv. Just... a bit weird, like.
Still, old films (pre perv era) are better, t'is true!

What, exactly, is pervy about an old man getting some sweet, sweet love action from a young lady? Who is also his pretend daughter? All that matters, is that Woody hit that.
I don't get jealous. I just try and sabotage whatever they've done.
(No, actually I don't. I just sit back and congratulate them through gritted teeth. I'm too soft to be really jealous).
Did I see it was fair? The US justice system is a cruel mistress.
