Ian Willey<\/h1>\n

Strange Comfort<\/span><\/h2>\n

When my car died after a long
\nand debilitating illness everyone
\nsaid the same stuff about moving on
\nand you should be thankful for this,
\nthat, and the other thing, except for
\nmy neighbor, the one who\u2019s always
\ndriving over our lawn when backing
\nout, who put down his hoe and said
\n\u201cso, what are you going to do about
\nall the oil spots on your driveway?\u201d
\nand God do I love the jerk for that.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n

To get back home <\/em>Ian Willey <\/strong><\/span>has to take a flight from Tokyo to Chicago and then transfer to Greensboro, NC, when the planes are flying.<\/em><\/p>\n
