The truth is, Andrew, you're a conundrum. Plain and simple...or actually, not plain and simple at all. When people know you as a person, they see a cheerful, happy-go-lucky, slightly slow-on-the-uptake yet thoroughly fun to be with young man. But when you write, you come off as somebody who's much deeper than that, and I don't think that's a side many people see of you...or if they do, they don't take it seriously. I know I was prone to doing that when I first saw that side of you. I guess it's very Jungian in nature. ^_^ If I were still up on all the latest psychology, I could babble it with the best of them, but as it is, I'm sure I'm coming off as ridiculous to you...because, really, when you get to writing some of your deeper introspectives or general views on life, you make a lot of people, including me, sound terribly ridiculous. And that's a trait you share with Andy - you're just a lot less forthcoming about it (read: you're not quite the same brand of smart-ass ^_^). Sometimes I don't know quite what to say in the wake of your thoughts. You're just very special, Andrew, and I've been honored and blessed to have you call me one of your best friends these past few years.
