How We Laughed

This is the Sedan crater in Nevada, site of a nuclear test explosion (July 6, 1962). It certainly is impressive.


I thought what it might be like to visit such a site: is it even open to the public? So I looked it up on Google Maps: oh snort! 


The Sedan crater is in an area of the Nevada desert called 'Butte Wash'… how could anyone take that seriously?!

Armored rhino, Chelsea. 


He gets bad cat hair. 


Elegy in brass for Chris Christie? A trombonist practices underneath the George Washington Bridge. 


Farewell, Baron: my friend's elderly boxer went to a dog rest home somewhere near Albany...
