The Peach always does have a mirror nearby. One that can really hold us up to ourselves in life – or hold us up, period. Considering some of the stuff most of us without mirrors get into, more of us should have them.

My original ear-piercing was done with a “borrowed” military surgical needle, a couple of ice-cubes and a bottle of vodka (for disinfectant, not pain-killing). A barracks-mate was trying to cut up a chicken on the same table, and said the blood was getting in the way. Why not make every act in life into a stupid adventure?
