Best. Email. Ever.

An old college friend just got back in touch with me. Below is an excerpt of the email he sent describing how he ended up in France restoring old hearing aid stores.


Here's what happened: i went to grad school in 2001 to study japanese and chinese buddhism, ended up in a phd program at the university of pittsburgh in 2003 doing a doctorate on a particular sect of esoteric buddhism in the 10th century...and then one day in tokyo i met a frenchwoman, left grad school cuz it wasnt very fun, and moved to france and got married.

that was about a year ago.

i currently work for my father in law restoring some stores that he owns, which amounts to a small chain of hearing aid stores here in lyon.


This guy was one of the smartest people I know at Northwestern. He was also the guy who took nine hits of acid once and was convinced he was Jesus.
