I had this really good buddy back in my early twenties. I lived right above his flat in O.C. Cali. He was a white dude, enormous guy, dread locks, aspired to become a Reggae DJ and producer. We hung out regular, toked, listened to his bad ass roots and dance hall vinyl collection that he invested in heavily from online auctions. He was such a good friend. This was pre cell phones and we lost touch. Your post reminded me of him. Just took a one in a million chance that you might been him. I know...lame.
