I learned a valuable life lesson because of your travels. When we were working at the restaurant and you were bar tending, we had a regular named Michael that would come in. He worked at the overpriced men's clothing store on the corner, remember? He smoked about 20 cigarettes in 20 minutes every time he came in.

You were headed to Ghana as a trip with the UofM architecture school (I think) and you were on leave studying the buildings etc, Michael asked me where you were and I replied,

    Sounds_sound's is so lucky he's in Africa studying architecture, I wish I could travel like that
and Michael put down his 19th cigarette and said to me,
    you know Steve, you create your own luck in life
. -So true.

He put out his cigarette and I emptied his ashtray a changed man.

P.S. -One butt, two butt, three butt... your butt!
