Inspired by Fat Red Ant, who was inspired by Dan Waber, I am taking up the challenge to write about 365 memorable people whose paths have crossed mine. The form is 44 words, in honor of the number of years spent running into them.

229/365 A Third Stephen
gives me good hugs and bird books he finds when he purchases box lots. He is the Rug Crazy guy. The craziest I bought is an Afghan war rug, with camels (thus the purchase), soldiers, tanks, AK-47s. At yoga, I hear his footsteps upstairs.
FBH: As you might imagine, they weirded me out. But when I read more about Afghan war rugs and about how they began to appear after the Soviet invasion, I was able to see it as an interesting bit of world history.

The "Rug Crazy" guy???
It's on his card. Rug Crazy. He sells lots of great Asian rugs.
