Dan

What is Dan doing? Dan is the kind of adventurin' man who isn't scared to pick up stocks and move halfway around the world on more or less a whim. (Note: I would have said "pull up stakes" if Emily hadn't coined that far superior phrase regarding stocks.) As a traveling partner, I can imagine few better. The man always carries a knife and dry pair of socks, he can build a tent in under 10 minutes, and he can drive any vehicle at hand. A man of distinctive taste, he can also select a highly appropriate fine wine or liquor for any dinner gathering, and can read road signs, maps and menus in several languages. These skills and attributes leave nary a situation too sticky to handle- and if it really comes right down to it, he can also box. Dan isn't much of a letter-writer, so I'll try to post my observations on his activities and behaviors somewhat regularly for the benefit of those who know him. Right now he is repairing a household appliance.
