They were just happy if I shaved at all.Sidneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16284680909152676159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221839.post-85358109505423722962006-11-27T19:15:00.000-06:002006-11-27T19:15:00.000-06:00I envy you.

Actually, my friends sort of stepped in and stopped me, too. <br /><br />They also stopped me from getting a straight edge razor when I thought it would be a cool thing to own.Stewart Sternberg (half of L.P.

In some ways, fiction has to be realer than real life, or at least feel that way.Charles Gramlichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02052592247572253641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221839.post-48094366316193162442006-11-27T09:14:00.000-06:002006-11-27T09:14:00.000-06:00Things like that are kind of eerie.

I wrote an article once about a man who saved another from a house fire. I saw the rescuer a month or so later at a festival then never again. That's been true on many other occasions. <br /><br />It's just random chance I guess, and I've never quite figured out what to do with that fictionally but it's often seemed kind of strange to me, at least in retrospect.Sidneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16284680909152676159noreply@blogger.com
