Jack  Townsend
“Is everything okay?"
"Yeah, yeah, probably. I just wanted to mention--and it's probably no big deal--but there's a guy hanging out near the gas station staring at me."
"Nothing illegal about staring."
"Yeah, you're right. It's just that, well, he's wearing a mask."
"It is Halloween, you know."
"You're right. It's just that, he's standing out in the rain wearing this long blue raincoat."
"That's what raincoats are for."
"Yeah, I guess you've got a good point. It's just that, he's really creeping me out and I think he's like eight feet tall and his arms go down to his knees."
There was a short pause on the other line. Then, "That's not illegal.”
Jack Townsend, Tales from the Gas Station: Volume One

“​The sheer number of people in my life who have somehow failed to outlive me is, in a word, incredible.”

“​I didn’t appreciate the way he was being so polite and considerate. At least when people are rude, angry, or belligerent, I know it’s coming from a place of honesty. It’s much harder to know what kindness is supposed to mean.”
Jack Townsend, Tales from the Gas Station: Volume Four
