SNIP:

I'm going to start this off with an anecdote. It was a real teaching moment for me and left me feeling pretty good about myself. When I left the Big Island of Hawaii a few years ago, I wasn't in the right headspace, I guess that's what it was, to sell my car. I had met this fellow, Charlie Abel at the weekend market up in my neighborhood, about 10-12 miles out of Hilo. I used to go there every weekend for papayas and vegetables. Charlie sold motor oil and also did some amount of mechanical work and I had hired him to do something minor to my car. It worked out that I left the car with him and he was going to sell it for me. I left him my email and off I went.

Time passed and I never heard from him. I figured, 'well... I guess something or other happened' and I put it out of my thoughts. It's been around 4 years now since that happened and last night I was communicating with my friend Issac Shapiro who lives in Australia. We were friends on Maui when I lived there. We parted company at some point and (I see this story is getting a tad over involved... ah... so what?) Zac (short for Issac- grin) went and married the heir to the Otis Elevator fortune. I attended the wedding; talk about a big time extravaganza... heh heh.
