A learning relationship between white and black in isolated location
I am sent to Malaysia as a Peace Corps volunteer and learn about the most successful Peace Corps volunteer in the country.
I fall into a fire pit and can't get out. Close to acceptance of being burned alive my football coaches mantra returns.
I lose the Alviso of my memories.
I attempt to prove as a gringo I'm as good as any Mexican
Old, I reminise of Alviso and a decoy from my youth
Obsession with firecrackers turns south
I learn farming is all about killing
While going to college I work at a rental TV store and learn a little about myself
Four in a captzied boat eventually get rescued by the Coast Guard
Gender politics requires a good ole boy defense
Life in the Assessor's Office
I discover being a land lord can be dangerous
