got im’d on napster yesterday by a guy from france who was downloading maria, by blondie. ‘hi’, he said. i said, ‘hey.’ blondie hasn’t been in france lately, he said. he’s a 35-year-old firefighter, in Strasbourg, France. ‘…and u?’ he innocently asked.

he didn’t know i used to be a firefighter?how could he? but i sat there frozen for a moment, as my frame of reference expanded in a breathtaking instant from the 18 inch space between me and my monitor to the 3711 mile space between me and this guy in france. whhoooh. just remembering it is a rush.
the poor guy was then subjected to a gush of my reminiscences about firefighting. he sent a pic, and asked me for one. i sent my best one?me at work last year. but i think he wants pics of people around firefighting stuff?like his pic. i have none.
