Pete Wang!

No, I haven’t found Pete Wang yet. But since he seems to have completely vanished, I figure it can’t hurt to try to enlist Google’s assistance in locating him.

Basically, I’m thinking that either he, or someone else who knows him, is going to be googling “Pete Wang” or “Peter Wang” one of these days, and maybe they’ll stumble upon this, and want to let us know where he is.

For example, maybe he’s single, and dating. Well any potential mate is going to want to find out as much about him as possible before things get too serious. To you, Pete's potential mate, I have this to say: Pete is a nice guy, as far as I know. Just the same, you’d better be careful. You can never really tell. Please stay safe and let us know how things go with him.

Or maybe he’s applying for a job and they’re doing a background check. To you, Pete's potential employer, I would say that Pete is an industrious fellow, and also very hard-working (which is actually kind of redundant since I’ve already said industrious) … and although he’s not a perfectionist by any standard, he may be just the kind of guy you want handling your sensitive financial documents. Just be sure to have backups of everything before you hand ‘em over. I would!

Or, maybe Pete himself is reading this. Pete, if you’re out there, or, if you’re not out there but are otherwise reading this (though I don’t see how that would be possible), please contact us! Just leave a comment on the blog here. Everyone on the blog will be emailed, though not everyone has requested that this happen; in fact, nobody’s actually asked to be emailed with any such message (or any messages at all) but I wouldn’t take that personally if I were you, OK?

And let me add this. Pete, Pete Wang, Peter Wang, whatever your name is these days, surely you can remember a time when grass was green, the sun shined, and ne’er more had the twinges of youth gallivanted so gaily in the yard; a time when … the harsh yoke of reality had been lifted, as if e'en for but a brief moment in time, and the lusty wails of adolescence blossomed in the moist air of the night. Alack! For it was a time of mystery, of love; a time of renaissance ... and repentance.

When you’re done remembering that time in your life, Pete Wang/Peter Wang, see if you can also remember that summer camp in 1989, the one where you hung out with those people and there were also little kids running around. Well this is the blog for that camp. You’ll have more time to read the rest of it and contribute to it if you’re basically unemployed like me.

Well, hoping to hear from you – over the years we’ve all wondered how you are, and by “we” I mean me, and by “over the years” I mean “since about 3 weeks ago.”
