all I can say is:
if sushi was heroin, we’d all be . . dead.
what am I saying, I am the only one – left standing !!
I guess, dead a lot sooner. but if the big bucks sushi days – didn’t exact a toll, the hard times certainly – did.
as for yours truly, what did I tell you . . tomboy chick !!
we were all fast friends, for decades – with lots of funny stories to tell between us, and among us.
we loved each others’ art, and shared the mighty struggle against the dumbed-down masses,
the party vultures, and esp. the get-over artists, translate: collectors.
whenever one of us, backed into a run of good luck, he would pretty much use it to help the others.
sort of.
but those are what the stories are . . all about !!
