Going to another city and just bouncing around the thrift stories is one of the most unhinged things I've ever heard of my life.

They have like nine Goodwill's that I've never been to.

What does the trash in this city look like?

That's the question that Michael Hobbs is always asking.

Well, what else is there to do?

I don't drink.

I bites to the fucking Goodwill's.

What am I supposed to do?

Where else would I get a mastiff shirt? I have a shirt

that says mastiff. I also have one that says mastiff mama. It's a great point. Where else would you get?

Unless, of course, you went straight to the dumpster. I like my shirt. I like my choices. I had a

great time in Austin. And I have a topical zinger. Okay. I was going to do something about Brownback Mountain.

It's maybe two niche.

It's only Kansas heads will know.

but I do know that the way to fix it is to send national political pundits there 24 hours at a time to reach sweeping conclusions.

No. there 24 hours at a time to reach sweeping conclusions. So this is a book from 2004 by Thomas Frank, who's sort of a lefty historian journalist guy.

He's one of the co-founders of the baffler.

To start off here, I feel like you need to situate yourself in 2002.
