A Coney Island Of The Mind (or Happy Birthday Uncle Stevie Doctor and Sir Miles Davis)

It was the better half’s brother’s birthday yesterday and It is Miles Davis’ today… In honor of a winter rain trip out to Coney I took with Uncle Stevie Doctor (that’s what the cutest Buddhist calls him, to distiguish from the other Uncle Steve on his dad’s side who ain’t a doctor, get it? ) many moons ago… and it was nice because at that point I’d been dating his sister for some eight or nine years and still not met her parents… I couldn’t decide if it was because they were Korean, I was white, or perhaps they were space aliens in government lock up in Roswell just outside of Pittsburgh… I’m still not sure, but it was nice to take a lonely walk in the Winter time of a summer location and be sort of like family (that word keeps coming up, huh?)

So till I get back, here is a drawing of Paul Giamatti in a hot tub I did while watching Sideways. The sisters bought the birthday boy a wine fridge to store all the fancy Austalian hooch he bought while supposedly studying medicine in Adelaide… no sense letting all those “studies” turn to plonck no is there?
