I just finished the story of your life in chap-book form. Beautiful. I can see some similarities in our upbringings that no doubt contribute to our "clicking". I hope you are doing well, hanging in there, or better. Me, I've got the flu :(

We have a very beautiful family. We just have to put it back together. I live my family Dave. That includes you dear !!

You are very welcome. Thanks for the good wishes. I hope you are well as possible, too. I have my issues and stuff, but I'm trying my best to cope. You are a very nice guy and even though our dear friend is in Mexico, it doesn't mean we can't be friends. Hope to maybe see 😊🙄you soon.

Yeah, lets get together.  can I buy you lunch sometime?  Are you ever in or willing to come up to midtown?  Sometime in next 2 weeks?

I realize midtown is a business casual zombie jamboree, but maybe you can hold your nose for an hour.  (yes, "zombie jamboree" was plagarized from H, for your enjoyment).

Let me be clearer: for somebody who deeply values human contact and interaction, you spend a lot of time and effort gathering information online in a solitary and non connecting manner

Hippie Lou! I miss you, how are you today brother? I hope all is well! I had a rad morning...had coffee & a spliff while reading up on your zine. You've been with me in high spirits man

Hi David, I hope everything is well with you. First of all, i am sorry that i was too late to thank you for the card you sent me. Thank you, i loved it and put it somewhere that makes me feel good every time i see it. Second, i was thinking to go to city and meet you if you have time on this Thursday or Wednesday afternoon? I really would like to have a cup of coffee and ask your opinions on some business issues if it is okey for you.

"it is designed to be an experimental space, that is, one that gives us the opportunity to experience a type of space we haven’t experienced before. whether it will be a pleasant or unpleasant experience; exciting or dull; uplifting or merely frightening; inspiring or depressing; worthwhile or a waste of time, is not determined in advance by the fulfillment of our familiar expectations, because we can have none, never having encountered such a space before. we shall simply have to go into the space and pass through it, perhaps more than once. that is the most crucial aspect of its experimental nature, and we—its transient inhabitants—are experimentalists in full partnership with the space’s designers. each of our experiences will be unique, personal."

i am enchanted by life
i am enchanted with life

i have walked in many worlds
but i have an insatiable appetite
to walk in more;

when we meet
we converse
we share

we walk in each other's worlds
we accompany each other
if only for a moment

on our most wondrous journey
this journey we call life.

with love and kind regards, hippie lou
