Ask Buddy  Installment Number 27

Hey Buddy! Buddy, I need help bad! Well I don't mean I need 'bad' help, you know, just the other way around actually. I know in my heart of hearts that I can depend on you and you alone to really help me. Here, let me tell you what's up. My whole family, some I'm not too convinced of, my so called friends, and not too sure of most of them, and of all people, my doctor, and I 'know' of all people he would be the last to say so, tell me that I'm crazy as a loon! What in the hell is a 'Loon'!? Is that the same as a Goon? I know what That is, but this loon thing has me stumped like crazy. not 'loon' crazy, just crazy crazy. Whatever it Is, I'm not crazy as, as far as I know anyway. Oh sure!, I might do some silly stuff like, standing in front of trains, which I do Not recommend to novice train buffs, jaywalking, swimming with sharks, Never ever using my seatbelt, playing with copperhead snakes, closing my eyes going down stairs, jumping from my second floor windows, picking fights with UFC Fighters, which I plan on winning some day as soon as my current injuries heal up, and there's some more but I think you get my point here.

 Now does That stuff make me 'crazy?'  Could all these biased people be wrong about me?  What can I do to convince people that I'm as sane as you Buddy?  How about we have lunch out on the tarmac at JFK Airport some day, and you'll see first hand that I'm not so crazy after all!?  Hurry up with your answers before they figure a way to have me committed to the looneytune bin!  Thanks Buddy!                                  Not so crazy after all in Motor City, USA.

Dear Crazy as A Loon, Thanks for entrusting me with your clouded future. You ask, "what in the hell is a loon". Well, as crazy to You as it may seem, it's just a 'bird' that lives on water. Yeah, I know, that's just 'crazy', right? And no, not the same a a 'goon', birds don't carry guns.  Does the 'silly' things you do make you "crazy"?  Yes, I'm afraid so. And No, those people are not as biased as you imagine. What can you do to "convince people that I'm as sane as you Buddy", well as to the first part of that question, that ship has sailed. You were probably dodging traffic in an intersection and missed the boat as well. As for the second part of that same question 'as sane as You Buddy", hmmm...good luck with That! And last, hopefully, "tarmac at JFK Airport", shoot!, I have appointments all day long on that day but you can write to me at 'Ask Buddy' 1234 Fifth St. Loonville, USA, 54321  As soon as I get your letter I'll touch base with you for a 'lunch date.  Good luck Crazy, you're gonna need lots of it!
