Sometimes when I am thirsty, I reach for

Sometimes when I am thirsty, I reach for a cold bottle of water. But, I only drink water that is fresh from the treatment facilities of New Jersey.
My cousin Bradley is a Water Treatment Engineer at the plant and so I feel I can trust the process used to filter water from the New Jersey plant. I once got a stomach bug from
dirty water from the New Jersey plant, but that was before cousin Bradley worked there, so I'm definitely confident that it's okay to drink. Of course, if I were to consider the
matter I would need to have all pertinent information. I would need to know the astrological moments of all those involved. I would need a liason with the Dogen who was familiar to
The process of Buddhist astrology. Dogen was just the person, but he was just outside of Tokyo. I was in New York, and didn't have the funds for the airfare. He won the lottery and
built a giant golden Buddhist temple on top of a building in Tokyo. But Dogen did not offer to fly me there.
"Why do you need to fly anywhere else? Why go places and do things? Do I look like a ticket agent?" Dogen stood. "A candy wrapper in a parking lot?" I tried feebly. Dogen couldn't
handle my desire to travel the world. "Your delusions of grandeur are turning into actual delusions," Dogen said. "Hey, I mean, same shape and color--you could easily be mistaken
for a suitcase. You're brown. You're sorta square. You got handles. Go ahead! Hop on the baggage claim conveyor belt and see what happens!" Dogen scowled, but I could tell he was
joking. We both looked at each other and smiled. It was great to be back from Hong Kong. I missed his good ol' American humor waaaaay too much.
