Happy Birthday, Bob! I'm so glad you traded in all your motorcycles for Porsches! Maybe now you'll make it to your 66th birthday! Party on, Wayne! Party on, Garth!

Many of you I spoke with at the reunion asked me about my writing, and in particular, my book on Practical Buddhism. As a way on honoring you for your role in my early life, please accept a copy (in PDF) as my gift. No pressure, download it if you like. If not, no worries. I'm not trying to sell you anything. I hope each of you find happiness.

Bob was the first person to show me how to ride a motorcycle. He was, you'll remember, fully into cars and motorcycles, and he took Tina Gull and me up to a clearing in the Angeles Crest Mountains, and it was there I learned the downshift 1, upshift 2,3,4, and the touch of the clutch. It was So much fun.... Another Bob story.... Bob came to my rescue after I crashed my brother Scott's Camero on the Woodleigh S's one Friday night. He was working at a Standard station, I believe, on Foothill Blvd. That was a night to remember for many reasons. I shudder when I think about what could have happened to me and Terrill Webb and Laurie Phillips that night. If we were just a foot or two to the right, I wouldn't be writing this right now. What an idiot I was. We took the limping, broken Camero to the Standard gas station, and for the next few weeks, I worked at the station, paying off the repair bill. Unfortunately, that Camero was never the same. I destroyed it. I still feel bad about it. But Bob got me out of a truly bad predicament. That Camero was buried in the jungle behind a fence off the road, and he got it out, so we could proceed to the next problem. Oh, yeah! Youth!!

Sleazy Riders: Bill Gossy and I will be riding south together on our bikes. Bill lives in the SF North Bay and I'm in the South Bay. I'll be on my BMW and Bill on a Harley (he's forgiven). I'm pretty sure we're going to look something like this. Apologies in advance. :-)
So glad you're coming to the reunion, Terry! :)
