Boxer rebellion, the Holy Child. They all pay their rent. But none together can testify to the rhythm of a road well bent. Saddles and zip codes, passports and gates, the Jones' keep. In August the water is trickling, in April it's furious deep.

I also like the idea, but they probably wouldn't go for it. Reminds me; about the mid-70's I was flying with a friend in his C-150 doing the morning traffic watch over Orlando for a local radio station. I was getting some free time at the controls, he was getting a nap. I'd nudge him once in a while and he'd give a brief report and snooze some more. One chilly morning in January, we were doing a slow cruise over downtown and he grabbed his binoculars while giving a report. While looking down, he commented on air "wow, would you look at that, it's so cold this morning I just spotted two county commissioners on Orange Ave. with their hands in their own pockets for once." He got a little flak over that one, but when he metioned in private a few choice items he was privy to, the whole thing was dropped. The next morning I was back to flying and he was back to napping.

If "Pro" is the opposite of "Con" (Ya' know, the "Pros and Cons")... ...what is the opposite of Progress?
