A few observations about Atlanta from a simple country boy

  • Tall buildings are cool and scary, and staring at them while driving is a bad idea.
  • It is suprising how many eagles and similar birds you see around here; I wonder if they ever swoop down and grab people's starbucks. (Because that is what the world needs: a hyper animal hunting an even more hyper animal (the squirrel) - imagine that line of evolution until one day you have a bunch of Whitney Houston's running after each other)
  • The Big Chicken is a little scary.
  • There are all types of people in this city, but most people live in neighborhoods with people like them.
  • I don't like suburban kids with money (are there other types?)
  • Traffic is bad, but on the weekend when you actually want to drive some place cool, it is not bad at all because most people are at home working on their yards like the little pathetic fuckers that they are.

I rock the Camry

No, you see the difference between me and you is that while you have the 2002 Camry, I rock the 96. You prefer Starbucks while I like Caribou Coffee. You like to work on your house, and I like to work on my stereo equipment. Your wife is blonde while mine is not, but neither of them like to have sex with us. We both live in the suburbs, but you live in a nicer house while I have nicer cars. We are as different as night and day in our suburban world.

Stars

You can actuallly see stars from our porch (yes we have a porch) even though we have moved from a smallish city to a largish one, we can actually see a good bit of stars from our porch. Awesome.

Where the Players play

Today while sipping my Starbucks diabetes-in-a-cup, thumping Ludacris, and cutting across five lanes of traffic on my way home to my suburban rented mansion, I realized something: I live in Atlanta now.
