Go do more Q&A articles with surf legends where you have to talk and use your car.

That's funny.
Not that I've bought anything from you in a while (too be fair, I do have 5-8 years worth of gear at current attrition rates) I do seem to remember every time I'd stop by, that you'd be in some sweats and it was like I had just woken you up.

I'm going to do more articles - and I'm going to do my own book, I did like doing the q&a articles.
I'm not kidding about my voice - when I read to my son at night I'm constantly clearing my throat.
Also, I'm taking note of the life exectantcy of people in the tackle business - its not good - that's why I want to focus more on the tee shirts and publishing.
I saw this show on PBS about writers and their creative processes. One person, it might have been Toni Morrison, she gets up, dresses like she was going to a professional job, and then goes into an office in her home and works a full day. I found that hard to believe.
I can tell you this, there's no way I'm setting up a live cam so you can see what goes on here like other shops are doing. I can't let people see that - somedays I start to act like the Dennis Hopper character in Apocalypse Now. People see the crazy stuff and they'll never want to give me thier credit card numbers.

Whose going to be the one to set them straight, Man?
Me? Look at me Man! Wrong!

The heads. You're looking at the heads. Sometimes he goes too far. He's the first one to admit it.

I have the opposite issue with my voice. I talk on the phone 5-6 hours a day.
When I get home I am not interested in talking to anyone. I pet the dogs- nod my head about 62 times agreeing with my wife during the wife nightly complaint session. Eat by myself since everyone else ate- 2 hours before--go on the computer to check the striper world and SRI. And I still have not said anything to anyone- then finally with great effort and every fiber of my being- I say- "Matt I would greatly appreciate it if you would not flunk out of AP Physics and AP Statistics". Then I go to sleep.

that's why on TV they have commercials .....station identification... so you occasionally switch to a looped version of the surf... then behind the scenes you can get all freaky for a time ....get it out of your system .....and then return to the task...

This is the way the f****ing world ends. Look at this f****ing %$%$%$%$ we're in man. Not with a bang, but with a whimper. And with a whimper, I'm f***ing splitting, Jack.

it's true. i can attest to this, i've seen it first hand. it started with Food Cat, then Joe's mental state progressively worsened over time. Joe, when i go back to school for Psych in Jan, I may have to observe your behavior for my abnormal psychology research class. your "situation" looks like a textbook psychological case study, AKA an easy "A" for me. take it slow and easy my man....
