This is a note to the now-disconnected Brian Vargas, who is probably somewhere in Washington, DC waiting for the DSL guy to come and hook up his internet access. He's in that void, where no one can reach him.

So this is a shout out to him by the only means I have. If you're not BrianV, you can stop reading this. If you are Brian Vargas, send me your email, dude -- I have random anecdotes to relate to you.
