I was asleep when our plane hit the runway, but the jolt brought me instantly awake. I looked out the window and saw the Rocky Mountains. What the fuck was I doing here? I wondered. It made no sense at all. I decided to call my attorney as soon as possible. Have him wire me some money to buy a huge albino Doberman. Denver is a national clearing house for stolen Dobermans; they come from all parts of the country.

The narrator wakes up abruptly on a plane landing, startled by the jolt, and finds himself gazing at the Rocky Mountains. Confused about his location and the purpose of his journey, he feels disoriented and questions his decisions. The landscape seems foreign, and he senses a disconnect between himself and where he is.

In a moment of clarity amid the confusion, he resolves to call his attorney for financial support. His peculiar plan is to purchase a large albino Doberman, which he notes can easily be acquired in Denver, a hub for stolen dogs. This strange desire underscores his erratic mindset and amplifies the surreal nature of his trip.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.

You say you're 'depressed' - all i see is resilience. You are allowed to feel messed up and inside out. It doesn't mean you're defective - it just means you're human.
