Week 28: Divining the Metaphysical Seat of Our Hackles

Red Sox Nation, September 2005

Looking for a good body shop for the pooched car leads to amazing Baltimore site-seeing -- particularly of places you may not normally visit. Patapsco and Curtis Bay? Can I get a sho'nuff?

We were all like Hey Lauren Bender, I love that sex ads poem of yours, z'it taken? And she was all like No, I'll send it along. And we were all like Word. And then she was all email like Here it is and a few other things I've been up to if you like. And it was like the one we asked for plus 5 other poems of all kindsa goodness. And so we were all like You are a crushingly prolific bitch and I'm gonna punch you in the face. And she was all like Who ARE YOU MONSTERS?! And then we were all like publishing the sex ad poem plus two more in this issue and hoarding the rest for another day.

Plus a new semi-regular feature, the Hot House 5 -- a handful of anythings that are getting us through the day-in-day-out.

Next week we'll begin publishing a set of dispatches from an agent who finds himself surrounded by L.A. Be appreciative, our far-flung correspondent is risking life and limb among the body sculpted and sacrificing that notion of "winter" for you!
