I try not to get into reading a lot of the emails.

I don't know what the fuck this is.

I try not to get into talking about them too much because that brings more.

I should talk about them or read them and answer them.

I bitch about this every week.

I don't bitch about it because I don't enjoy getting these emails and because they're not thought provoking.

I bitch about it because I do enjoy them and because they are thought provoking and because I feel like there's something fucked up about getting so much heart felt sincere correspondence from people and not having the time to engage with them on the level that they deserve.

It's just a scale thing.

It's fucked because so much of my life and maybe this relates to why I feel compelled to engage with people.

So much of my life I was traveling and I'd go to the post office, the post-restant in whatever town I had told people I'd be in.

And if there was a letter waiting for me, oh man, that was like a cold beer for someone who'd been in the desert for a long time.

Correspondence, thoughts, sincerity, depth, something you could read over and over again and sort of hear it almost like the first time.

Of course, part of this I'm talking about letters from women that I was involved with.

But a lot of it's just friendship, just companionship, just someone reaching out and touching me on another part of the world.

You know, there's something really meaningful and beautiful about that.

And my life has come to a place now where I've got an embarrassment of riches of people reaching out to me and sharing things with me.

And it is embarrassing because I don't have the time or focus or ability to respond in the way that they deserve.

So pardon me, those of you to whom I've not responded, I can't, but I do read your emails and they touch me very much.

Here's an example, okay, this is an email that came in about three minutes ago when I was firing up GarageBand to start working on this podcast.

I saw there were a couple of emails so I opened up, it takes a minute or something for GarageBand to load.

So I thought I'd look at some emails, see what that's what came in.
