Zack, getting his groove on at the wedding, January 20, 2002. Zack has been described by Fred as the "Kramer" of our group--the guy who lets himself into your house, eats your food, and maybe ends up taking a nap in your bed or a shower in your bathroom before you even know he's there. Zack is all that and so much more. He got a degree from Harvey Mudd after being barred from the campus, got a job as an engineer even though he has no degree in engineering, and jetted off to South Africa to earn a master's degree in metallurgy, despite the fact that none of us had ever heard him profess to much of an interest in metallurgy. In fact, most of us don't even know what metallurgy is. Does Zack? Who knows? Who cares? He absolutely fucking rocks the world. I cannot wait for his return to America.
