I commented in Rob's journal, but I'll say it here, too - I didn't know him as well as you did.. but I'm very sorry this happened to him.

I keep halfway expecting him to really be at The Village, rather than anywhere else.

It's strange... just maybe 3 days ago, I thought about Tattoo Bill for the first time in a while.. I was remembering that time when you two lived together on Strawberry St. and we both were going outside so you could take me home and he told you not to make me "one of those girls" - I don't know if you remember the context or not, but I guess it didn't look so good to him that I was leaving the house with my shoes in my hands..

Anyway, I always remembered that.. and I remember meeting him online before I ever even met the rest of you all..

Heroin - what a shame.

wow, i totally forgot about that happening. that house was pretty crazy.

yeah, rob and i were talking about how he knew you before any of us did, because of the internet.

this is truly a shame.
