Don sells little plastic parts. By giving away the knowledge on how to
use them, and giving away a set for others to teach on, he sells
enough of the little plastic parts to keep his entire family in BMWs.

Karl doesn't quite fit. In his clothes, in his skin. After I spend
even small amounts of time with him, I get the crawly sensation that
he goes home to his basement where he pulls the wings off of
butterflies.

Marianne lives in a house that could be featured on Lifestyles of the
Rich and Famous and has, featured prominently on her desk at work, a
framed photocopy of the famous picture of the squirrel with

Nancy had perfect penmanship, probably rulered into her by nuns. We
used to say that she wouldn't say shit if she had a mouthful of
it. She also never told anyone she had cancer until the week it took
her.

Tommy was the salesman's salesman--didn't really matter what he was
selling or which company he was working for, you were buying from
Tommy, not whoever worked for. He used to pay off his Visa card with
his American Express.

Rob looks, in my memory, exactly like Crispin Glover. I have one clear
vision of him giving me a ride home and blasting Nineteenth Nervous
Breakdown followed by a string of ahead of their time Tommy James
The Shondells songs.

Chaz sits front and center at the reading. After the out of town guest
poet reads her first poem he oozes forth with, It's really about
fucking, isn't it? Then proceeds to remove his overshirt to expose
his sleeveless undershirt.

Chuck and the newbies around the twenty gallon mixer. Never, NEVER
turn it on without checking its on low speed. He pushes the button. A
column of salsa erupts to, showers from, the ceiling. Now clean that
up! he deadpans.

Dale has one speed: casual. He'd rather work a day that's longer,
overall, than hurry things up to fit into an eight hour day. He was
born to mosey. But he traded in his beloved Formula Firebird for a
Corvette.

Jeannette must have smiled at some point in her life, but, in forty
years I have never seen it, though I must confess I have missed far
more family gatherings than she has. This was true after I missed one.

Don got picked nearly last when the popular-boy captains were choosing
up sides, which made no sense to me since he was way better than most
of the popular kids who got picked before him. I picked him third.
