    When I was young and feeling invulnerable, the heavyweight wrestler for our university (who i worked with) told me I looked tough and cool with a cig hanging from my mouth.

    He didn’t really have the capacity for dry sarcasm. I remember thinking that was not a good thing to tell me. Especially bc I knew that I wasn’t “cool”. I was a dork.

        Last i knew, he was selling corn and soy seeds around his hometown.

        Based on my experiences, he was a good dude. I have my own opinions about big ag, but I heavily doubt he sees it like I do.
