keepin it country

i must say i've noticed an amazing anti-rural turn of late. hitchens just ridicules the whole idea of a small town here; that's so over. "environmentalists" have been quick to point out that stacking people like cordword in concrete boxes minimizes their carbon emissions. i like the flava of the 'it gets better' campaign: you might live in some godforsaken backwater in kentucky, where you are oppressed by the narrow-minded bigots who are your friends and family. come to sanfran or nyc where everyone loves everyone just as they are!
