I Have Interesting Friends...

Am still alive, still writing, but just wanted to relate this anecdote.

(It didn't go anything like this but to make it interesting, let's spruce it up...)

Bear: "My cousin had an interesting nickname for me when I was younger. He called me 'Frustrated Homi'."

Me: "Why? Because you wanted to be a black guy?"

Bear: "No, because I almost got involved in a case of frustrated homicide when I was in grade school. But the guy lived so that was okay."

Trust me, he did.
