Best Of

That doesn't sound like us at ALL, no. Can't be true 😂

This story is from my friend Nicki, @Sliquid's wife:

|I wanted to share my memory of meeting him at your July 4th party many moons ago. You had a lot of people over and everyone was having a grand old time. Perry was climbing on the roof and reminded me of Tarzan.

You had a friend in town from overseas, I can’t remember from where, somewhere Nordic I think, and all of you guys were shooting off fireworks in very crazy, not ‘by the book’ sort of ways. Taping things together, and shooting them off in multiples, your basic complete disregard for safety instructions that occurs in many American backyards at that time of year. After one particular zany experimentation that went somewhat wonky, I remember looking over and seeing Kyle watching the festivities, safely locked inside of a car, gazing through the window with a look of quiet tolerance and exasperation at the apparent idiocy of the adults around him. It struck me that this kid was likely the wisest person at the party.
