shorts

One of the coolest things I ever saw happened when I was driving in Long Island City one day. I was going past the projects and there was this kid - couldn't have been more than 11 or 12 years old - and he was running with this huge, ancient discman in one hand and just kicking ass. I mean this kid was fast. Really fast and he was completely focused on it. He had on a plain white shirt and a pair of shorts that looked a little worse for the wear. He probably inherited them from someone, I guessed.

But he had really good quality shoes, so that means that someone cares that he can run like that. That's the part that made me happy.


i think that's it for now. who knows how long i'll have internet access from home....gotta ease in here.
