Money-People's Paradise
...So, isn't the poor man just another character in the rich man's world. My mind's referencing The Diving Bell and the Butterfly when Jean-Dominique Bauby drives around in his red car taking in the Paa-ree..
...Having this opportunity to see the world, blessed by different experiences and interactions with various peoples; and that's what makes a life interesting. It(globetrotting) gives lives character, and gives thoughts the basis for development into tangible ideas. But unfortunately, unless you have money, traveling the globe endlessly is probably not an option. ...So, the poor man, with his colored shirt and vintage suspenders walks down 2nd avenue...only a character to John Simon who slowly rides in his Jaguar taking mental photographs of each person for his own mental pleasure. Poor Man is just another animal in Mr. Simon's safari.
In 3 days, he'll be in South Africa for lunch and in Kenya prancing amongst hyenas. Poor Man walks down 2nd avenue every day...he's just part of the Le Gens du Peuple.

TOKION-new issue!
Please buy it...it's actually great. I don't say that about many things. It's all pretty and collage-y this time around. Check out the blog in the meantime:

My Bike Sucks
Summer has begun. I ride this completely impractical, hefty ass bike. It's a 1970s Schwinn...red. Whatever...the handles are way too high, and if feels like I'm on the JFK runway ready for take off on a 700 pound Indonesian elephant. What I really need and really want is a smooth, blue colored, black-lined road bike where the tires cut the wind and I chill in bike-racing position (you know... like when they crouch forward and the handles are nice and low...think Tour de France...) ready for take off. A bit more practical, I would say...
