Fifteen years since last professional haircut Dave Eggers

Couldn't cope so I wrote songs Aimee Mann

Well, I thought it was funny Stephen Colbert

70 years, few tears, hairy ears. Watching quietly from every door frame. Catholic school backfired. Sin is in! Savior complex makes for many disappointments. Nobody cared, then they did. Why? Some cross-eyed kid, forgotten then found. Born in the desert, still thirsty. A sake mom, not soccer mom. Extremely responsible, secretly longed for spontaneity. No future, no past. Not lost. Almost a victim of my family The psychic said I'd be richer. Grumpy old soundman needs love, too. Painful nerd kid, happy nerd adult. NPR, Excerpted from Not Quite What I Was Planning from Smith magazine, Harper Perennial, 2008.
