...middle-aged men who keep the flame of jetpack obsession alight are a quirky, entertaining bunch, united by their "heart-wrenchingly beautiful dream" to fly "like a twisted bird, for a wingless, breathless twenty-two second orgasm in the air." Montandon paints funny, faintly sad portraits of this group. "These are the anonymous, doughy faces of obsession," he writes. Among them is Jeremy McGrane, a 32-year-old New Hampshire resident who built his own "beautifully sleek, blue-corseted rocket belt," and who speaks candidly about the all-consuming nature of his pursuit: "Most guys are dreaming of alcohol...

...course, a girl can dream. My friend Tom Kizzia, a reporter at the Anchorage Daily News who wrote two major profiles of Palin when she was running for governor, has an 18-year-old daughter who is obsessed by Chanel. Living in Alaska doesn't preclude sophistication. Which leads to my next point: if you're going to make a splash and spend $150,000 of the RNC fund's money, why not go for something a little more remarkable - dare I say stylish - like a pinstriped Ralph Lauren pantsuit, a spiffy Chanel jacket, or anything by Giorgio Armani?

Mazhar Hussain could scarcely conceal his delight. Revving the engine of his white pickup truck laden with over a ton of rice and spices, the 35-year-old driver from Pakistan-administered Kashmir says his dream would soon be realized. "I've never been to the other side of Kashmir. It is the land of my forefathers, our land," he says, with rising emotion...
