Simon B lived with me for five years. He had a website called AWESOME WHEELS. One of the items he sold on there was MAMOD STEAM ENGINES. Made in the UK.
Click here.
They are tiny. About the size of a peanut butter sandwich.
This morning I ate something new before I went over Scott's for film noir.
A three-egg omelet with chopped black olives.
Scott and I both had good naps as we watched THE UNSUSPECTED. Claude Rains, orig from the UK, was the killer. He has a beautiful voice, as did Simon himself.I will never see him again.
I do have his beautiful signature behind a tapestry from - is it Ecuador - which I can look at if I wish.
Here is a facsimile of Simon's steam engines.
What else did he sell on his website?
How did he die?
Same way as Dad.
Lung cancer that metastasized to his brain.
SIMON THE B
He and I would have conversations about an afterlife
Saint Augustine believed one thing but it was really
Thomas Aquinas that set the course for Believers.
He was never quite sure if he believed and neither was I
One night the two of us were looking out our separate windows
He from his new blue house in Bensalem
Me from my yellow house in Willow Grove
He lived right behind Popeye's and brought his trash
to the Dumpster there
That good man, that Simon, is gone but we may
see him again.
68 years old.
He introduced me to Dr Paul Ravetz who wore cowboy boots to work.
