I received an e-mail from the Managing Editor at Bamboo Ridge asking if it would be okay to publish "Bernie Aragon, Jr. Looks For Love" in their October issue. Do you think I screamed...
a) No! No way! Do I look crazy?
b) Bamboo Ridge? What's Bamboo Ridge?
c) Yes! Yes! For the love of God and his host of holy angels, yes!
The answer is c. I then offered to wash the cars and vacuum the homes of the entire editorial team. Every day. For ten years.

We gonna be in this issue together and what lovely company! And Bamboo Ridge usually does launches...in Hawai'i, op cors.

excellent news, ms. ver, so happy for you.
Coolio! would be a good excuse to go to Hawaii, and you know pick up your contributor's copy. Otherwise, I'll make you a mai tai.
Congratulations, Ver :) I loved Bernie Aragon looks for Love. Great story.
Thanks everyone! Eileen, if you're right about the launch I am so completely there. A rice plate from Zippy's is already calling my name...
Meanwhile, I'll settle for a Mai Tai from Gura. And I don't even drink.
Congrats!!!
Thank you Timothy! I mean...Patrick!

Very, very cool, Ver!
