Darren; he hasn't visited New York since the anti-
smoking laws were enacted. However, now that
they're foisting them on people over there he may

is sharp but his heart is real; he'll talk of
philosophy, film, jazz and also prepare you a
delicious, comforting meal. He's a friend for the
bad times and for the best of times.
