Richard Toronto

“Our relationship was clear-cut from the beginning. He was in his late 60s, I was in my early 20s. He was the Kung Fu Master, I was Grasshopper, and he never failed to let me know what a poor student I was. He gave me barely passing grades on my interpretations of rock books, one of his greatest discoveries. The rock books were cryptic, high tech, pre–Flood relics manufactured by an ancient race, he said, and until I understood them I would never know the meaning of life, the universe, or anything, for that matter.”
