Edward AbbeyThe essential is never to arrive anywhere, never to be anywhere. The essential is to go on squirming forever at the edge of the line, as long as there are waters and banks and ravening in heaven a sporting God to plague his creature, per pro his chosen shits.

We in the South live in a society that is rich in contradiction, rich in irony, rich in contrast, and particularly rich in its speech

Tara Stiles'The Panorama' is also the last place anywhere in New York where the World Trade Center still stands, whole, as it stood in the early morning of September 11.
