\"Somerset's<\/p>\n

W<\/span>hat could one say about Somerset’s mom?<\/p>\n

Somerset’s pals would have told you she had class. And she was sexy. Mostly she was sexy.<\/p>\n

But not in a, you know, vulgar way, like Eddie’s mom, who was nice when you got to know her — and not really very sexy at all — but who dressed like a hooker even though her husband was some kind of Wall Street West guy.<\/p>\n

No, Somerset’s mom was beautiful, like Grace Kelly or Lana Turner. She went to a gym even back when they were kids.<\/p>\n

He’d be over at Somerset’s house when they were, oh, 12 or 13, and Somerset’s mom would come in from the gym or tennis, sweating a little but just glowing. The time she came in from the pool unexpectedly in a filmy one piece that was wet and clinging to her was seared into his memory all the way through grad school.<\/p>\n

[A note about this song: What’s to say?<\/span> Sometimes you just get a bonehead idea stuck in your head on an evening when there are no Law & Order reruns and… well, it’s a good thing I have cable. PS… if you don’t know what a bad pun the title is, that minor ignorance is, in this case, bliss.]<\/p>\n\n
