William S. BurroughsTake a shot in front of D.L. Probing for a vein in my dirty bare foot... Junkies have no shame... They are impervious to the repugnance of others.

William S. BurroughsChanges... can only be effected by alterations in the original. The only thing not prerecorded in a prerecorded universe are the prerecordings themselves.
