Bree’s Lament

That spot is usually empty. But when someone springs for a party and hires a band, they put up the red and white blinds. Things get started and the children get stir crazy and run around outside while the grown-ups all dance inside. Except for the one brother who is in a funk and takes his Coke outside and drinks it right out of the bottle.

In the trailer park next door, unlucky snowbirds get the last spot available. Bree is upset with Howie because she told him to pack the wind sock, but he forgot. Now they are the only R.V. facing the ocean without a wind sock. Howie is in a bad mood too. The game is starting but he can’t hear a damn thing because of the party next door. “It’s too loud!”

Counting to 43

An Inside Out Project participant placing a poster

An Inside Out Project participant places posters of the disappeared Ayotzinapa students at the Plaza de los Gobernadores on the malecon in Puerto Peñasco, Sonora. He and his group begin work about an hour before sunset on a windy Sunday afternoon. As the posters are taped to the concrete, passersby stop and try to count to 43.

Which Hunger Games Are You?

Did you take Quiz One? Okay, now take Quiz Two. It is more or less the same as Quiz One, except it stops abruptly in what feels like the middle. Now, wait a year and take the second part of Quiz Two, which we’ll call Quiz Three, Part One. Do you still want to take Quiz Three, Part Two? Congratulations, you are The Hunger Games!
