The death of Trevor

Substance

Last night in bed I thought of a story I'd read years ago about how at 3AM Israel Kamakawiwo'ole was given 15 minutes to arrive at the studio. Initially the studio manager was closing down and suggested they record the next day. But Isreal insisted, saying that he"had an idea."

For awhile I was...

Life Happening

A break at the diner

"They had something come up."

"Mm."

"Friend situation."

"Oh no. That's too bad."
