YEAH, BUT WHAT ABOUT SPORTS?

Kevin Noble (SPAZ) was reading the rough draft of my book and he turned to me and said: "Do green people ever eat yellow footballs in the rain?"

When I asked him what he meant by that remark, he stood still and expressionless, similar to a zombie. I snapped my fingers and clapped my hands and then, just as suddenly, he came to life. "Yeah, but what about sports?"

Kevin would often go into these stages where he'd talk total nonsense, not realizing it, and then become totally normal again as though nothing had ever happened. I don't think he was on drugs or anything. It was just the way he was and everybody accepted it. Again, he turned to me and asked, "Well, what about sports?"

I asked him, "What about sports?", to which he replied, "You've written a story about almost anything from shoes by the side of the road to rubber vomit, but you don't have anything about sports."

I said "Oh" and that was that.
