    Enjoyed your talk - and your answers to questions + your embellishments - that were then freely triggered. Memorable, to say the least!

    Looking forward to seeing you at the Barrymore tonight. Our outlooks diverge only in a few ways - mostly due to our formal educations. And that which I acquired from spending time in the living spaces of more than 20,000 different homes over some 50 years - as I’m something of a perpetual learner and an energized analyst.

    In a nation ruled by swine, all pigs are upwardly mobile—and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. We owe that to ourselves and our crippled self-image as something better than a nation of panicked sheep. — Hunter S. Thompson
