- Jeffery,
- I have agonized long and hard about what to write for your birthday.
- One version was a highly philosophical take on personal perception.
- I'll spare you the tortured prose but the gist was that the way we see the world depends on our experiences - how we parse things.
- You're one of the few people who has influenced how I parse and understand the world, and that version lauded you for it.
- But, that seemed too heavy and pedantic, so out it went..
- Another version was silly and salacious, since your approach to life has so much of each of these things.
- A few years ago somebody at a party asked me "Does Jeffrey Epstein manage your money?".
- I replied "No, but he advises me on lifestyle".
- The guys eyes bugged out of his head and he said "REALLY?".
- Alas I am ill prepared to comment on your lifestyle in any detail, since I am (sadly) so far behind that it would be talking about things I know little of!
- Yet another approach was to comment on our shared interests in science and exploration, but again it seemed lacking.
- So, in the end I have wound up with this silly excuse for a missive — neither profound nor funny.
- But, I've included a few photos that I took on my recent trip to Africa.
- They seemed more appropriate than anything I could put in words.
- Nathan
