I look fondly back on renegade days of my youth. Not the partying or anything, but it's still the spirit that I have always adhered to. When I do work that I like, it feels like a great punk song, like a burst of adrenaline. I've always kept this spirit in me, or some sort of connection to it.

Wellsie frowned. I'd like you to stay away from him, okay? He's...not right in a lot of ways. Do you know what I mean? Actually, John wasn't so sure about that. Yeah, the guy was enough to make you think fondly of the boogeyman sometimes, but clearly he wasn't all bad.
