In this familiar, warm cocoon of nature, he couldn’t help but be pulled back into a distant memory, one of him lying amidst the scent-laden pine needles, under the watchful eye of his childhood home’s pine tree, engrossed in his world of 'little guys'.

I was still a transplant back then, a young Midwesterner caught in the allure of a coastal paradise, or so it seemed.

The occasion, a reunion of sorts, a parade of the unseen artisans of Hollywood's mirage and the Valley’s eclectic seers, epitomized the city's irresistible incongruity. The players?

California was plunged into a vortex of blackouts and browns-outs, the frenzied dance of the power grid teetering on the brink of collapse. It was a game played by suits in glass towers, Enron, the puppeteer pulling the strings, and the state, their marionette, dancing a clumsy jig to the tune of manipulated energy markets.

The boy, or was it a man? - time was a slippery thing here - sat at the edge of the world where pixelated waves met the sand.
