The Land of Misfit Toys


The "yacht club" in Queens where we keep our boat in the winter, where Honey-Trout is now during her rehabilitation, has inexplicably been featured in the New York Times today.

Paul, in the photo, is a dear friend of ours. (Belinda is convinced that he is my birth-father, that we are too alike to be a coincidence. The timing and location work.)

And already a Japanese public television station has seen the article and sent a producer down. On Thursday they are sending a camera crew and want to shoot us working our (very disassembled-looking) boat. "Our Japanese viewers love this kind of stuff" she said as she waved vaguely toward Honey-Trout. I can only imagine what their narration will say.
