Dear Philip:

"some precipitous events took place late yesterday that will likely have a dramatic effect on my landing a reporting job anytime soon, if ever" What ever conspired in your life to bring this situation about, I send you my well wishes and hopes that this is just a speed bump in your path, and not a concrete block wall. You are an inspiring and talented writer. I believe you have a bright future ahead of you no matter what obsticles are placed in your path. So hang in and stay close to those caring friends. When all seems or appears hopeless; somehow if we keep plugging away, have faith, and fortitude to follow our passion in this life. It seems like things always work themselves out in time if we can find the patence within. I can only offer my encouragement and heart felt kind wishes for your situation. I know it's only words on a page, and a computer screen; but there is actaully a real bipolar person sitting here feeling real emotions giving you this comment, and hopefully an optimistic outlook in spite of any set backs at present.

Yours truly
Stan

Fingers crossed for you Phil :)

Keep on fighting the fight, and I would have said "ah, fucking hell" a lot; so you're a better person than I for good karma--sending it your way! damn world anyhow.
