This Google street view stuff just shows how alert the FrontBurner Nation is. Really solid work, people. Keep posting those pics. You’ve got till Monday. I thought I’d share one of my favorites, from CDD. This is exactly what I’m talking about. You see this picture, and it makes you want to write a short story about the woman. There she stands, in her old-school white quad skates and her fuchsia ensemble, staring at the sunrise (or sunset?) with her arms akimbo. What is she thinking? Has she been skating through that neighborhood for weeks, and did it just occur to her, in a flash, how barren and depressing the place looks? Or is she simply looking at that new house under construction with envy? (Seriously. I don’t think I’m going to get a lick of work done today.)
