JOURNEY AS A WAY OF LIFE: STILL NO RAIN IN CALIFORNIA

MIYAKO HOTEL, SAN FRANCISCO There are a lot of sumo wrestlers here. They're big, they're fat and they're Japanese. In Japan, I'm told, they have groupies. In America, they just look big, fat and Japanese. Here in the lobby of this hotel that has strange bathtubs, an old friend and I are having drinks, eating peanuts, watching the big fat sumo wrestlers out of the corners of our eyes.
