Alex has told me this story before … but it doesn’t matter, I just read it again, with a huge lump in my throat – and I’d love to pass it on. I got one word for you: Pete. Man, oh man. Pete. You just never know when some random person will come along and save your life. Anyway, go read the story of the old grey suitcase.
