Good to hear from you. Yes, we get back to Bloomington now and then--my mom and Kim's still live there--not with each other--and it is Not The Same. I'm not sure what I'd do if I found myself living there. I think once you've been away for a certain amount of time it makes it harder to reestablish. Funny, I used to talk about the Bloomingtonites who hatched schemes to get off the island (the underwater telephone cable was my favorite), only to end up back in their same old hammocks. Now I wonder: was Seattle/SanFran/NYC/Chicago/Austin/Whatever a big improvement? Hell. B'ton is not a place. It is a time. It's something that can't be revisited. Never-Never Land. The Hundred Acre Wood. Blue Bayou.
Having a great summer, just got back from a long-ass drive from Hatteras Island, sand in every crevice. Now the kids are zombieing in front of the tv and I gotta cut the grass. Life is grand. Pax--D

That is cool you finally got a settlement from those bastards...I am sure you know you deserve much much more, but I bet they were ready to drag the case on thru continuance and other lawyerly bullshit. My life is quite boring now - it's all legos and crappy diapers, but after the funhouse life I used to lead that's ok. It's great to hear from you brother! Hopefully I will be able to make the next B-town thing, but truthfully it takes military precision and coordination to even get us out of the driveway for a roadtrip
