Ferrari

I had lunch with Ron Mann today. To be honest, I can't remember how we met, but I don't know if anyone has more points of view. He changed his order three times. He always has an interesting story to tell. He and Woody Harrelson have some documentary coming out about bicycling. Sounds interesting. Then I saw a middle-aged woman wearing a black t-shirt that had the word "Ferrari" printed on it. Maybe it was Ron's influence, but I found the woman mesmerizing and depressing but otherwise encouraging about the direction of human events. What a strange shirt, diary. Worn without irony or malice. Anyway, Manolo won't go clean out the bird cage, so later days.
