11/30 - Left Coast

We all get a little rain on our sunglasses here. Here in this perpetual vacuum of energy on the west coast. A rainforest that makes us all fail to be punctual. We don’t care if you’re angry unless you’re articulate.

Myself, I’ve been a Vancouver man ever since puberty turned my penis into a boxing glove. I came down from the mountains with eyes the size of calendars. All I wanted was a little whipped cream on my wizard.

Vancouver swallowed me whole in the eighties and now in this new millenium my critical eye has exceeded my talent. I find myself swimming away from the shore.

The thing about most lakes is that you can see the other side. I know this because I’m from the interior. Oceans are too salty for me but they do love a challenge.

I’m going to do laps down here until I figure it out.

Man alive I'm glad to hear that. :)

Heh, I bet. Put it this way -- Chuck Yeager was, as they said, the kind of man who would bring a tear to men's eyes. On account of his skill, his bravery, his poise, his essential manliness. You have that same kind of power to move with your writing. Keep up the good work.

That's some high praise, Jeff. Thank you.
