I used to. Then I moved to Nashville. That put it on life support. When Klinton was re-elected, I threw in the towel.
Now I'm back in the sticks again. Humanity and its various woes don't impact as deeply here. Fewer of us afoot, and we're all screwed up to start with, so expectations are lower. All I do now is live another day and laugh at the decline of American civilization as we know it. When the fall comes, it'll take months before it reaches this place. That'll give me plenty of time to get the tin roof on the hermit retreat and move on in.
