They’re 40-60 page summations that hit […]

    Arbitrary

    There is a little town in West Texas that had a ridiculous speed limit: 25 miles per hour.  A two stop light town complete with Dairy Queen, it is but a blip on the 65 mile-per-hour highway.  Needless to say, the local sheriff department makes quite a tidy sum from travelers along the highway. Often […]

    Watching from a world away
