Mike Geary, offering consolation, writes: "Just give him room and he'll just have to make room for you." What a curious response, since I was making room. I was making room by contributing to the fiction that is 'Andy'. Or 'Irene'. Or 'David Wright'. (I can't tell if this contribution comes from being a fan of the Mets or hating them.) If people want to tell a story, why can't the rest of us contribute? Mike has me dancing by the fire in Borneo. I could point out that having me dancing anywhere near a fire is a story that can't end well.
