When Robinson Crusoe returned, he found that someone had gone through his stuff.

Robinson rubbed his eyes. Wasn't that his Encyclopedia Britannica? And there: the rare recording of "Relax – Wagner for meditation", sleeveless in the sand! He sprinted towards the palm trees, where he had built his studio apartment.

Oh no! The place was a mess. His collection of vintage plastic bags, his disposable coffee cup lids, and the shirts he had carefully woven from coconut fibers and monkey nose hair - all one big clutter.

The worst sight was the office: ransacked drawers, his goat leather couch dirty with chocolate, his typewriter gone. Robinson closed his eyes and took a deep breath. In, out, in, out – relax. At least they hadn't taken his record player. 

Somewhere there's a pool dreaming of my return.

Too hot to move out of the sun

Now that we finally found a place that is warm and safe enough to stay, I have to leave. But not without seeing the Keys first! Maybe I can manage to lose my passport and ticket within the next two days... 

If you bless me, I'll bless you. – No, no, you first!

I'm getting confused. Can I bless God? Or does he have to bless me? Does he bless America? And what if he doesn't? Would I even notice? Can I recall my blessing? And if he doesn't want to be blessed by me, will he ever tell me? Does God read bumper stickers? Is he the guy who passes me in the right lane at 100 mph? Does he ever run out of gas? Is fuel a gift from God? Hummm. I'll have to think about this more.
