It's good to see someone else who is a member of this mad Bottle Rocket
appreciation club willing to show their face. Welcome Aaron.

I had to keep retrieving the magazine from the other end of the train
platform, because I felt the need to heave it as far as I could after just
about every paragraph. This was this guy who not only stalked JD, but
claimed to have received the answers to koans from friends of his. A first
rate asshole as far as I'm concerned. So, yes I did read it and I keep a
copy in the trunk in case I ever get the urge to take the forty five minute
drive up to Cornish. Take Care.
