There's an upcoming story about the lone pharmacist in Nucla, Colorado that is very much worth a look.

I can imagine what Annie Proulx might have made of the story of Mr. Brick. 8)

If you liked that story, you might like Emus Loose in Egnar, which is about small town journalism in Colorado.

I'm still reading the September 19th issue, and found a Brokeism in Ariel Levy's review of books about sexual evolutions of the past: "On warm spring evenings, [George Boyce] and a companion would roam around town looking for anonymous action with amenable young women. Their pursuits were almost always fruitful. Often ...a bold stare would suffice."
...like Aguirre's!! 8)
Jeff Wrangler:
Granted it's in an ad for MSNBC, but has anyone noticed the statement in the Sept. 19 issue that presumably really does come from Chris Matthews?
"Over time, people who advance liberties tend to win the argument, whether it's for women, African Americans, immigrants, or the gay community. In the end, America takes the side of the people looking for rights. That's one of the wonders of this country. Eventually, we live up to our ideals."
