me and jose actually came up with the idea of making an ALL-ALAN blog later. not about him being dead or anything, but just like, various stories that we have from him during all the years we shared together, it's a neat idea but were both too lazy to start it, and besides, all alan stories would take a total of one sentence to tell, and it would neither make it justice nor would it make sense to anyone reading this, example:
we once went to mcdonalds at the water tower and he ordered a whopper on accident.

see, not that great of a story to you, but to us that was great.

neat idea. but it will probably never happen.
