If you read the previous post about "The Night We Don't Speak Of", you might be wondering how much of that was my literary license and how much was actual facts from the evening. I can attest that is was all accurate. And, just to prove how crazy "Crazy" actually is, here is a follow-up email he sent to Ms. Fabulous (with picture included) after the evening's events:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Ms. Fabulous:
I know how he feels, tonight I can cry and wonder why you did to me what you did.
His pain was because of the way he looked.

Mine is because of my skin color, race, and religion…
Because people like me have strength and courage, people
like the Hunchback of Notre Dame will not have to suffer
if I have anything to say about it. I am courageous enough
to fight for those that can't fight for themselves, so you should
not be surprised that I would stick up for myself. If I was not a
strong person I would have never been able to do all of the wonderful
things that I have already done in my life and plan to do in the future.
If somebody had been prejudice against you because you
were Hindu or Indian, you would have felt safe knowing that
I would have stuck up for you… not pretended that you
were only a friend.
Beauty is not what lies on the surface of ones being, not
their religion, not their skin color,
beauty lies in ones soul… and if nothing else, I think you
know that I have a good and kind soul…
Interesting to see that your friends, were not Hindu either,
but they are ok for your familly, and I am not…
"Crazy" (the name has been withheld to protect his identity)

What on earth would compel someone to write an email such as this... to compare himself to the Hunchback of Notre Dame (someone actually worthy of sympathy)... to search the net for a picture of the creature... to send it to Ms. Fabulous to pity him? win her over? futher expose his insane mind?
Feel free to leave comments.

I fell sorry for him.
But, then again, I am a 500 pound gorilla, so I know the pain of not fitting in because I am not Hindu.
Namaste.
