thirteenth, be glad you get hangovers/headaches. Constant negative reinforcement. For whatever stupid reason (lack of brains I suppose) I can not give myself a headache. I can hardly get myself to throw up. I just have this endless capacity.
Anyway. Cursed with pointless health.
Hey, here's a great redemption movie: The Straight Story, by David Lynch. Based on a true story, set in Iowa (where I'm headed next week). Early on they talk about "The Grotto of the Redemption." Been there many times. RAGBRAI gets a nod, passed one mile from my farm. Alvin crosses Iowa at harvest time on a lawn mower to visit his dying brother in Wisconsin. Iowa 18. I've driven it a hundred times. I know these people, and they are good people. Not my political persuasion but so it goes.
Be patient, this movie packs a slow punch.
It's on YouTube, complete.
PS: throughout the movie Alvin wears a red plaid hunting jacket made by Woolrich. Woolrich is about ten miles from where I live and I have a jacket just like it. Dumb facts about me you didn't need to know, lol.
