THE DOOR that came [part eight]

OUTDOORS | Lesser men and women with lesser clothes (and vice versa). An immigrant-less plain of gray grass and all that could've been but fortunately isn't.

One might wonder if they also pee from the high above the slides as we did back in the day... it begs a certain question: have we ever sled in the previous generation's drunken pee deposits (or worse)? All I recall is that they showed up holding sharp katana blades ready to bust up the swings -- a rare sight for suburbia though nowadays the kids all have guns... with Bluetooth capabilities. You're walking in the opposite direction, friend.
