BloggerCon backlash begins. 7:09:18 PM    comment []   trackback []

Dinner last night at a Country Cookin’ restaurant in Lynchburg, VA, the un-ironic mullet capital of the world. The guy at the table next to me wore suit pants and a tank top that showed his farmer’s tan; he looked like an extra from an old Life magazine photo of Klansmen on trial. Lots of cammo, lots of Confederate flag t-shirts…and many interracial couples and families, too. In the men’s room the radio was playing “Tempted” by Squeeze. This is a complicated culture.   We have now completed a semi-hellish drive to the Jersey Shore (rain; traffic; no room at the inn near Baltimore; more rain; more traffic) for our last bit of summer before North Carolina’s ridiculous school calendar ends all the fun. 3:46:04 PM    comment []   trackback []
