I CANNOT STAND IT ANY MORE - I'VE ENDURED MORE THAN 50 YEARS OF PAIN BECAUSE OF MY DIRTY LITTLE SECRET

"WHOA, BA DUDE, WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU? YOU GOTTA TELL US - WE FEEL YOUR PAIN!"

I HAVE TO BARE MY SOUL - "WHEW, WE'RE GLAD THAT'S ALL YOU'RE BARING" - IN PUBLIC

I CROSSED PROSPECT STREET ILLEGALLY - I WENT AGAINST THE STOPLIGHT -
MAYBE THERE WASN'T A LIGHT AT THE INTERSECTION OF TORREY PINES AND PROSPECT 55 YEARS AGO?
IF THE STOPLIGHTS WERE NOT THERE, I'M SURE I DID SOMETHING ELSE, ILLEGALLY, AT THAT INTERSECTION.
MAYBE I DID IT [THE CROSSING] IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT, ON MY SCHWINN BLACK PHANTOM, AND THE BIKE'S LIGHT WAS NOT WORKING?

A SORDID BIT OF LA JOLLA,  CA  HISTORY:
====
PROSPECT STREET, IN LA JOLLA, IS THE DE FACTO LINE THAT KEEPS GHETTO LA JOLLA SHORES SURFERS [LIKE I AM] FROM ACCESSING THE AFFLUENT WIND**SEA WAVES
====
I HAD TO DO IT, I HAD TO CROSS THE LINE

MY DESTINO MANIFESTO WAS TO RIDE THE UPTOWN WAVES
THE WORLD FAMOUS WAVES AT WIND**SEA, AS WELL AS THE WAVES AT OTHER LJ REEF BREAKS

TODAY, I JOIN HANDS WITH MY OTHER ILLEGAL BROTHERS AND SISTERS

TODAY   IS NOT:     A DAY WITH BA     

TODAY IS A DAY WITHOUT ME, A DAY WITHOUT US - THE ILLEGAL ONES - TODAY IS:

A DAY WITHOUT BA!
