    That’s what I was expecting to see before I came to this country. Instead, I’m greeted with an A-pa-tuh forest with bi-lla underbrush, and barely enough room to swing a dead cat no matter where I am.

    And goddamnit, I want to swing dead cats sometimes, yaknowwhatImean?

    Nice indeed. Having lived in concrete for the past decade, I am an advocate of wood in buildings.
