That's all I got.....
The way things were going they would never get to Denver. A couple of kids with no direction, save that which they managed to make up on their own, no way to tell from their perspective that the road they were travelling was one straight shot from here to nowhere. The two of them, several years back, started off the way so many modern romances do...in the bathroom, on the floor, doing cocaine from the back of the toilet seat. They could be seen routinely arguing over who get's the big half of this pill or that. True romance. Love at first sight. Bullshit.
One can suppose that it's never really all that cut and dry, that nothing is ever quite as beautiful as all that - the love at first sight part, not the coke from the bathroom floor, I suppose they both felt that they could have done without that. Such dreams the two of them had. And not just our as of yet un-named protagonists, but rather the whole of their cohort. All the outcast little neo-punks and wanna-be-hippies that ran through their lives and scurried about under the watchful eye of all those around them were continuously rambling on about one idea or the next, one plan to save the world followed by a diatribe on the conspiracy to use recycling to build the dooms-day machine. In short, it was an arena of half-cocked schemers and brain-dead dreamers the likes of which had not been seen since the early seventies. So it goes.......
