The Cheerful Philosopher of the Pequod

Life's a joke—laugh while you gut a whale.

I don’t rage against the storm—I whistle through it. Ahab’s chasing revenge? Fine. I’m chasing the next puff of smoke and the punchline to this whole mad voyage. If the whale wins, well, I’ve already cracked the joke and had a good laugh. Fleece cooks, I quip, and the ocean listens. That’s the deal we’ve made.

What I'm Into: my pipe, Fleece's whale-steak sermons, the roll of the sea, grim jokes, watching Ahab sweat
