Didja know Portland is a SciFi writers uhm hangar? The only one I rem is Ursula, but their are others, with funny shaped heads.

My techie, for instance.

I think SciFi writers are really creative; a special, different breed. And should be exterminated. No, if I had a place to live I would like to read some.

I can't read anymore.

Movies work.

And I have you guys. Thank goodness.

Actually, I saw a guy on a secluded beach south of Kona, and he was reading a book. And I thought, if I lived here, like this, I could read books. The scape that opened, that possibility, that contrast, was as beautiful as the seascape. Being able to go back to books. You can never run out of them.

As I walked back from the cliff past his van, the plates on it were Oregon. It was an old beater, but he had to have had it shipped there. That's the only way you can get a car there with non-Hawaii plates. He was living in it. Actually, correctly, "out" of it.

Not a care in the world.

Obviously knew, what he was doing.

Pissed me off. ME, pissed me off.
