I have, I think, afforded every opportunity that could be reasonably expected, to judge of my credibility.

After the events of the 20th century, God, quite reasonably, left Europe. But He’s still here in the United States.
I’m outdoors a lot, so I get dark. Guess who gets stopped? I’ve been pulled over, and they ask, ‘Where are you from?’ I say, ‘Montana.’ They say, ‘Are you sure? And I say, ‘I’m reasonably sure I’m from Montana, but you know, this is a dream life.’ You start on this shtick with them and it’s fun.
Belize suits me because I’m active and I like diving. I learnt when I was 18, in Thailand, and I have dived in Vietnam, which wasn’t great, the Red Sea, which was incredible and reasonably priced, and then the Maldives, which is like being submerged in an aquarium.
