>>>>>[Isaac? Oh what a guy he was. Before he passed away he gave me his
Shakespeare book. The binding is worn and the pages yellowing, but it
smells like his pipe and brings back good memories.

As for what I've been up to, not a whole lot. I spent some time in
London, some more time in LA. Wandered around for the most part. I'm
back in Seattle now, just enjoying myself.

Oh, but you'd never recognize me now. About a year ago, I goblinized.
I'm now about about 2.5 meters of smiling Troll. I guess I lucked out a
bit, though. No dermal depositions and very little furriness. I got a
pair of horns that point up, so I sort of look like the nordic viking you
always called me.

Oh what else. I got a calling about three months ago. I was in LA at the
time. I woke up one morning and just got on my motorcycle and drove out
to the desert. I met an indian out there in the middle of nowhere, like
he was waiting for me. He led me to a cave, introduced me to peyote and
as my consciousness expanded, I found myself flying high over the desert.
But it was unreal, like a weird simsense or something. I became one with
Eagle, and I still am. Isaac always said I'd amount to something.
Surprised me, I'll say that much. I've spent a lot of time since then in
self-reflection. I found this great musical group from the late 1960's
called The Doors, and it's like they sing about what my life has become
and warn me about where it could go.

Pretty deep for a crazy viking, eh?

In any case, it's great to know you are around. Isaac always warned me
that you'd grow up beautiful. If you have time, I'd like to find out if
he was right.]<<<<<
