LAST KNOWN WHEREABOUTS:

Way out west there was this fella... fella I wanna tell ya about. Fella by the name of Josh Peck. At least that was the handle his loving parents gave him, but he never had much use for it himself. Mr. Peck, he called himself "The Dude". Now, "Dude" - that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then there was a lot about the Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense. And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place so darned interestin'. But sometimes there's a man, sometimes, there's a man. Aw. I lost my train of thought here. But... aw, hell. I've done introduced him enough.
