I ask myself 'what if' every day multiple times. I was the last to see him alive. by 45 minutes. I was the last to tell him he was always wrong and I was always right. I was the last person to have several belly laughs about certain people on this forum. I hate asking 'what if' all the time. And I find it increasingly harder to log into BA.com because to me it was Johns site. It's not the same anymore. And I don't have that proud feeling about riding my America anymore. This one hit to close to home.



Okay Doug. As you know, I'm livin' here in Sedona now and where all these crazy freakin' spiritualists do their little chanting and meditating on top of all these so-called "vortexes" around here, right?!

Well, here's the thing.

After readin' what ya wrote here, I suddenly, for some strange reason, had a yearnin' to walk up this one "vortex" that's about half a mile behind my house. Once I got to the top of it, I started thinkin' about what you've said here, and guess what? I swear I suddenly heard Friar John's voice sayin' somethin' to me like, "Tell that chucklehead in Torrance to lighten up! I'm doin' great up here! So tell him this for me, will ya?!"

And now that I'm back in front of this computer, that's what I'm doin'.

(...funny, and here I never really put much stock in any of this here spirituality stuff before...what's the chances, eh?!)

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
