A rich enclave in the southern part of the city. Its hilly, winding streets have never been mapped. I never met anyone who had ever lived there. For a short time i threw a paper route in the area. I came to believe something caused the streets to permute into a different configuration every night.

First day of work at the new job. Every computer is turned to the same image. I've never seen streaming video before, & i have trouble figuring out what i'm seeing. Smoke is churning like a moving wall through downtown streets. Again & again an airplane hits one tower. An explosion. Then the second plane.
