When I think of all the barracks and backstreets I've stumbled through defenseless, full of hope or self pity, I can't believe how much kindness people have shown me. Luck got me places, but kindness always got me home, and my heart is full of universal gratitude with no one name to hang it on.

I remember a certain sexy puppeteer who helped in the birthing of those puppets. I don’t think I helped much, but I like to consider myself an executive producer. Kind of like how Brittany Spears was for her movie. πŸ˜‰
