Anthony,

This is a beautiful bit about two iconoclasts who I always respected and even envied for the very characteristics you point out. And whether you knew it or not, a lot of people in HS did think you were cool in a way we all knew would age better than the way other people were considered cool.

I will never be ok with this, but the way you described them made me feel my connection with them all over again.

You're the best Anthony! Thank you.
