A Crack Head

Today was senior ditch day for the class of ’08 and we went to Seacliff Beach, a little past Ventura. When we got there there was this really cool hut made from drift wood that we basically stayed by the whole time. I was sitting under it and the corner of this was sticking out.

The “No” List

I found this lying on the ground on my way to my car after school. It was easy to spot since it’s bright orange. I find myself wondering whether these are rules for Jess and Jenna themselves, or rules for someone else.

Even Cowboys Get the Blues

I found this card in a stack of cards at a gay cowboy bar. It was the only one with a message written on it.

Find Another House

Found in the gutter on Ramsay Street. I am most struck by the comment about the stove. It seems to say, “Look, I’m not really thrilled about the dope-shooting in my house, but I could live with it if you were just a little more conscientious about turning off the stove when you were done.” … Continued
