...Disney opened Epcot Center in Orlando with "Spaceship Earth" as its centerpiece. The exhibit/ride, housed in the most famous geodesic sphere in the world, shows "dazzling scenes of life in the 21st century's Global Neighborhood depict[ing] every corner of our world drawn closer through new technologies." The ride, in true Disney-esque fashion, revisits the themes expressed in the 1950s magazines--perfect family life made easier through human advances...
...time you hear Thorn. From thereon, Watt's clever intros are continually hijacked by Thorn's living-deadpan delivery. "Compression" is a joy for being jungle-smacked and free of her (except in adulterated form). Temperamental is really Watt's project after the last three years of underground DJ-ing.

Though I'll return to Boston come September and love it for its own peculiarities, I'm devoting this summer to re-learning to love Minnesota. I've lost my faint Boston accent and I'm droppin' the g's off of most'-ing' words these days. I'm walking to the grocery store and writing a check every time, and they never ask me for ID. My alarm clock is tuned to the local country music station, and I sing along in the shower to those twangy melodies I scorned in high school because I just couldn't wait...
