I was driving around Oakland the other day because I was coming back from Walnut Creek and it's better to be in Oakland than Walnut Creek. Due to collective error in a multitude of nervous systems, traffic got backed up and I took surface streets and wound up near Joe's humble abode and thought, "Joe's cool. Joe appreciates science and comic books and beer. Joe makes the Burn better. I should try to hang out with Joe sometime."

One night at the Farm I got sucker punched and my face did a curb job. Joe was great and let me crash at his place after I got out of the emergency room. I needed it. Thanks again. As Jeri Blank would say "Good Times."

A scientist, artist, philosopher, and musician, with far more than a dilettante's knowledge and appreciation for history and the classics. Women want him, and men want to BE him.
He's like some kind of post-punk BUCKAROO BANZAI!!!
I suspect Joe may have his own Hero Cult...

"Andra moi ennepe, mousa, polutropon, hos mala polla
planchthê, epei Troiês hieron ptoliethron epersen:
pollôn d' anthrôpôn iden astea kai noon egnô,
polla d' ho g' en pontôi pathen algea hon kata thumon,
arnumenos hên te psuchên kai noston hetairôn."
"Tell me, O Muse, of the man of many devices, who wandered full many ways after he had sacked the sacred citadel of Troy. Many were the men whose cities he saw and whose mind he learned, aye, and many the woes he suffered in his heart upon the sea, seeking to win his own life and the return of his comrades."

I hate you, Hated Joe! For so many reasons, but mainly for not ever inviting me to your family reunion so I could put the moves on Wynona and Naomi.

Oh where can I find ants such as yours?
