he's sort of a 1890's bohemian, a bit of a herm yit. most importantly, he was a friend of adolph sutro's. and sutro had a real estate shack on the northwest corner of the sunset. he let colonel daley squat in there essentially. he went out every morning, walked along the beach. whatever washed up he brought back to his shed and created quite a large little compound of old bottles, shoes, anything that washed up. a ship wreck. provided a bunch of lumber. he made a sleeping loft in his cabin. for a while he had a wife. she didn't wash up in the waves. but she did eventually wash out. she couldn't handle cooking in the sandunes every night, creating a fire. so she left him sometime in the late 18920 -- 1890's. but daley took one of those cars we were talking about and opened this little coffee saloon where he sold sandwiches, doughnuts, and little items to the picnicers who came out to the beach on the weekends. and soon other people, they kind of were charmed by this little old horse car that was being used as a store. and they asked if i

i had bohemian parents in seattle in the late 1960's living in a houseboat.dad may novels and made murals. my mother was an actress in seattle theater. she would take her top off and painters of blue. -- paint herself blue. my mother wanted to name me after a famous greek historian. tavis: i bet you could not spell that. >> you win. tavis: how does a kid learn how to spell that? tell me about "soulpancake" the book. >> "soulpancake" the book was inspired by our website. when i started getting well wanted to do something different and something positive. i wanted to share something that i was passionate about with "the office" fans and people everywhere. that is talking about life. what it is to be a human being. those kinds of conversations happens so rarely these days. when they do, they clear the room. i am not talking about politics. i am talking about, do we have a soul, and do we have free will? growing up, my family were a high -- bahists. we had spiritual ways of thinking. i'd love philosophy and spirituality. -- i loved philosophy and spirituality. ta
