I miss Ben. And Gary. I miss Ben and Gary. Suddenly, I find myself

Thank God I didn't wander into the group right about the time snoozers
like that were going on. I would have wandered right back out again.
And just think of all the great fun I would have missed.

I'd like to say more, but by hydroencephalwhachamacallit is flaring up
(we anti-intellectuals suffer from this a lot) and I have to go lie
down now. Sometimes it helps if I just go lie.
