Yeah, a few lucky shots have found holes in my armor, but the pieces they took made the rest even harder. So now I'm alert, that's the way things work - it's a contact sport, everybody gets hurt and everybody plays dirty 'cuz there ain't no rules - it's like you're either playing a fool or playin' a fool. Not saying it's cool, I've just learned from experience, the best teacher -- I've done a lot of research. Jumped feet first, still landed with my knees in the dirt, you prob'ly know about my previous work even if you didn't recognize the author. Well that's me, been gettin' schooled long enough to be a doctor. Taught a few courses too. You know what wild horses do. Hope you don't mind I'm honest with you - we're both fulla shit frankly, ain't we? We don't have to paint these roses red. You're tall enough that I'm not going over your head and I don't need to read a whole book to know what it says, but I like what you got and if there's room in the plot you should go ahead and write me in.
