Chaba fracking rocks. I love Chaba. Chaba is good people.

He makes me smile. (And soooo does his Griddle!)

When I talk to Chaba, I think he knows what I am talking about. And other times. I think he knows what I am not talking about ....

Once, I had this thought: "He's already seen through all my "blah blah blah" and he's already examined the deeper root of things, found the darkness in it, and re-energized back into a positive thing.

He already knows my bull and he is laughing at it".

And then I thought-

THIS IS A COOL friend.

He always makes me smile. He never judges. He is not pushy, and I do not believe the man is capable of being mean. There isn't a bone in his body which could intentionally harm some one or some thing, and no matter what he does, he ALWAYS LOOKS GOOD DOING IT. I love Chaba and I am happy to be in his "family".

This Friendly Southern Fried Freak still amazes me after 27 years. A man who has created his own path into the world. He is an artisan who recognizes the necessity of creatively contributing to the space around him, and a scholar whose intellect and memory have always stupefied me.

Much Love Brotha,

Poor chaba... no testimonials... he looks so lonely. I'm more than happy to step up to the plate and be the first:

He’s a damn fine guy with a good wit, a good intellect, and good soul. Many a deep conversation we’ve had and many more I hope will follow. Good traveling companion, be it on highways or paths.

You are a friend valued beyond measure.
