"I Want to Corrupt Tom Waits" is a short essay by Karl Jones.

Essay

To be fair, a guy like me — no laughing, you there in the back rows — a guy like me enjoys both answers and wonder, often at the same time because of each other.

As a teenager in the 1970s, I dreamed of, hungered for, a networked world.

Now here it is, we have the Internet, and what do you know?

Wikipedia is a source of wonder!

Still, not all is roses and joy in Karlville.

I now feel the need to reach out to Tom Waits and ... corrupt him.

History

Jones wrote the essay on the afternoon of Sunday, 25 October 2020, in a post on Facebook.
