the latest newsletter -- 18 March 2005

Morning Everyone,

Been sitting here for 5 minutes... no witty lines today. If you are in the East Greenwich area tomorrow (saturday 3/19/5) night, I'll be at Main Street Coffee at 7:30. 137 Main St. 885-8787.

Have a GOOD DAY.

Oh... I got a ride from a Jehovah's Witness from Fairbanks down to Denali Nat'l Park last summer. He is a now-mellowed ex-con ('I got my degree in fighting and selling dope') who now works odd jobs, including driving a handicap bus ('I really enjoy handicap people, being a little handicap myself') and taking a few weeks a year to look for gold ('I've come to realize though, you can suck up as much of that stream-bottom as you'd like, but if there's no gold there, there's no gold there'). We had a fun ride together, talking about life and religion, drinking coffee on a fine clear day. His parting words to me, I now pass on to you:

Be kind to people. If you can't do that, be kind to animals.

Peace,
Chris
