Well now lookie here WD. Life is just plum full of contradictions. You're talking to a genuine working class MFA from Berkeley with certified Oklahoma white trash roots, I'll have you know. Don't be looking around for no desks in the shop, cause there ain't any. So, best be changing your tune, round here.

Why just Saturday I popped a bowl of homemade crab gumbo in the shop microwave my good buddy Joe Mac left me for lunch.

Poor Joe was hard pressed all week by the ladies in the office to fix up some greens, chitlins, and black eyed peas cause they wanted a down home New Year's for good luck. I passed on that. Case you forgot WD, chitlins don't smell too good cooking up.

Be careful now, you hear?
