&,,,&,,&,, WHEN I WAS IN EIGHT GRADE I DECIDED I ,,,,,,,,&&
&&,,,&,,&, WAS DEAD. MY SPIRIT HAD LEFT MY BODY, &,,,,,,,&,
&&&,,,&,,& NEVER TO RETURN. ,&,,,,,,,,
&,&&,,,&,, ,,&,,,,,,,
,,&&&,,,&, I REMEMBER SITTING IN MY PARENTS CAR ON &,,&,,,,,,
,,&,&&,,,& A CLOUDY, WATERY DAY, GETTING A RIDE ,&,,&,,,,,
,,,,&&&,,, SOMEWHERE. IT FELT LIKE I HAD SOLVED ,,&,,&,,,,
,,,,&,&&,, SOME GREAT PUZZLE. I'VE SOLVED NO ,,,&,,&,,,
,,,,,,&&&, PUZZLES SINCE THEN. ,,,,&,,&,,
,,,,,,&,&& &,,,,&,,&,
,,,,,,,,&& INSTEAD, I'VE BEEN MINDLESSLY PILOTING &&,,,,&,,&
&,,,,,,,&, THIS BODY AROUND. I STILL GIVE IT LIFE, &&&,,,,&,,
,&,,,,,,,, SOMEHOW. LIKE A GOLEM, AND I TRY NOT TO &,&&,,,,&,
