I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's funny -- I feel like half of the guys I have known in my life have been named Michael.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Michael was the #1 name in the country for about 40 years from the 50s on.

I had a lot of Davids and a LOT of Erics. Four of my closest friends over the years (two of whom I'm still close with) were Erics, and I knew even more.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

The other name I have wariness with is "Kevin." In person, I have yet to meet a Kevin who hasn't been a major asshole.

I'm looking for a good Kevin.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Because books.

We had about a million Johns of various spellings. A lot of guys named Chris, too.

I actually love the name Michael for a guy. Not fond of Mike, though.

Me, too. Probably because my nephew, who is the sweetest boy ever*, is Michael.

-Michael (at the time, age 8) has 2 older siblings (ages 9 and 10) who were making fun of another kid and Michael told them to stop because it was mean. They said no, that he couldn't tell them what to do. Michael, with complete sincerity, responded with, "But it makes Jesus cry when you talk about people like that." Shamed them into silence, he did.
