I think we'd all love it if Uncle lost some weight. Dude's got an addiction, though. We went to get pizza for three, he got 14 slices. "There's such a thing as leftovers," he said to me with attitude. But when he pays for it all, he lies to the guy at the counter and says it's an order for a big family. Two hours after dinner he's in the refrigerator eating the slices we'd just wrapped up.

He needs to be around [alive] to raise his baby. And not only that, to raise him right. Which isn't to say that he'd be a bad parent or Nick would be a bad kid if he was raised on an excessive diet. I just see two overweight parents and wonder where it's headed.

Tour is getting better. There's also one day left, so that's funny to me.

Very bitter at the moment. Picks the oddest times to show itself.

Richmond, VA tomorrow.
