schwarz-truck, a 1995 ford f150 with two 17 gallon tanks is more than happy to suck down over one hundred and five dollars worth of 78 in a single feeding this summer. IF THEY'D LET YOU! i was fueling up for a road trip last week that would require all but one quarter of one tank when the mandatory nj pump jockey quit half way through filling the second tank and handed me back my card requiring me to take issue and give some serious attitude. there were no signs indicating any limits by whom ever is in the business of making limitations on things. and since i had been using a self imposed $20 fill-up limit (recently raised to $30) and always used cash i had no prior personal knowledge of sale limits. it was only when the pump cut off at $75 on the return trip fill-up that i put 17 and 17 together. "its the banks" the maine quickie gas lady confirmed. i paid cash for the balance of the fill on both occasions. man, if it aint one thing... its two things.

The Ballard woman who captured hearts and admirers around the world when she stubbornly turned down $1 million to sell her home to make way for a commercial development died Sunday of pancreatic cancer. She was 86. "I don't want to move. I don't need the money. Money doesn't mean anything," she told the Seattle P-I in October. She continued living in the little old house in the 1400 block of Northwest 46th Street even after concrete walls rose around her, coming within a few feet of her kitchen window. Cranes towered over her roof. Macefield turned up the television or her favorite opera music a little louder and stayed put.

But how to freshly document the life of a man who was his own Boswell, whose books and articles slavishly documented his own every tic, whoop and hallucination? A journalist who announced his arrival in American letters by riding with the Hells Angels and in the end choreographed a memorial from the grave that made the Burning Man bacchanal seem chaste?

Few writers have commodified narcissism so completely — his participatory style of journalism became its own genre and gives the film its title — but still we are invited to sit in the dark of the theater and have a flashback about his flashbacks. When the film opens on July 4, why will people, as Thompson would say, buy the ticket, take the ride?

Wright Where You’d Least Expect It

In a remarkable effort, an Alabama city purchased, restored, and preserved a dilapidated Frank Lloyd Wright house, then opened it to the public.
