if i were to explain that i have never felt more humble? it still amazes me that you would call me a friend (and you're welcome to take that back - i realise i have let you down) and quite honestly..

i have never been more proud of having known anyone, or felt more ashamed of my own inability to walk as straight and upright as you have, through all of this.

so basically - all i have left to offer - you have my deepest admiration.

and i still think you ought to run for president.

you shabby friend,

james/aR.

ps - did you get my email?
