I was hitchhiking on the side of an empty highway at night when all of a sudden Lindsey Jordan from Snail Mail pulled up in a car, let me in, gave me one of those skeleton decorations from Target, and told me it would be my friend.

“The day responsible for a life-long friendship between PAUL McCARTNEY and Ivan Vaughn started on the 18th June, 1942-the day they were born.
They didn't actually meet until eleven years afterwards-both grammar school pupils at Liverpool Institute. There the "twin" friendship between Paul and Ivan was struck up and has lasted ever since.
"One reason which has helped the friendship to last," said Paul, "is the fact that Ive now lives in London, so we can see each other fairly often.
"He has introduced me to several things over the years, the most important being The Beatles. Ive used to play bass in a group himself, but he's given it all up now.
"Ive was always a great one for hitch-hiking. He introduced us (Beatles) to the idea of going to Spain, Greece and so on.
When he got married, Ive and his wife hitchhiked all over America for their honeymoon, which was pretty good.
"We took up the idea, only we used to go to Harwich, cross the Channel by boat, and then we'd fly back from wherever we'd hitched to.
"When I joined the group, Ive went to London University to read classics. But we still kept in touch—and we even celebrated our twenty-first birthdays together in Liverpool.
"His work nowadays has nothing to do with mine. Ive is a programmed education researcher. Sounds complicated, but it means a new way of teaching children languages." Paul obviously knew all about Ive's job and described it lengthily.
"What do Ive and I talk about? Well, anything.
What do you talk to your friends about?"
Hey, I said, who's asking the questions?
"Ah, well, there you are," said Paul.
"We just talk about the things any friends talk about..
Well, I don't suppose Paul is ever at loss for words-nor Ivan, either, with a job like his.
