And They Wrote It All Down As The Progress Of Man

Vero Beach on its way to becoming the new Fort Lauderdale. Choking on sprawl and consequences. Can't build more fast enough. Haven't we seen something like this before?

Looks like folks are moving in about as fast as the new ones go up. Vero Beach sprawls and splatters outward. 

Man wrote a song about the last financial collapse: "easy credit, no money down, that's the way we built this town . . . and the only shelter that credit buys is a house of cards and a pack of lies."

Nuts On A New Level

Nashville has a Parthenon replica. Nuts on a new level. I contemplate, without resolving anything, why this might have seemed important. And to whom.

Nike, in Athena's right hand, is six feet tall. About eight pounds of gold leaf used for Athena. Bronze doors that appear to be hollow. Still a whole lot of metal involved.

And I make a little joke.
