The quiet of the arroyo wraps around the mountains and allows the desert birds their turn to be heard. A gentle breeze ruffles the grasses and flutters the flowers as it hugs the rocks jutting from the wall that used to be a giant mountain.
We're probably all trapped in the Upside Down. How else could we explain the fact that we still have a Mind Flayer for a president?

Saturday night cruising in Paprihaven...
Pratik's fine 1961 Jaguar E-type Coupe is usually the head turner at the pumps. But he notices some other fine machines have sidled up as well.
It's a safe bet no one in this group is buying regular.
Inside the food mart Pratik tries to figure out who owns which car. He pegs a casual yuppie for the Porsche and a sophisticated looking lady for the Lexus.
Pratik decides to see if he can time it right to have a conversation with them out by the pumps. They seem like his kind of people.

. ... Le moins qu'on puisse dire est que l'auteur de cet ornement de fontaine n'était pas un artiste improvisé.
. ... Taillée dans un bloc de marbre des plus purs, cette figure est une chimère réunissant plusieurs attributs mythologiques dont on retrouve la symbolique dans beaucoup d'oeuvres d'art des châteaux de la région lorsqu'ils sont en bordure de Garonne : un élément bacchique dans les graines de raisin disposées sur un côté de la tête (rapport à la vigne, pour principale richesse de la région), un rappel neptunien, dans les nageoires qui prolongent le bas des joues (le commerce du vin passait par la navigation sur la Garonne), un symbole faunesque (les cornes de bélier), pour rappeler s'il en était besoin, combien dans ce contexte de libation, il est cependant important de pourvoir aussi à la descendance... (l'idée de bacchanale n'est pas loin, car il y a toujours eu un lien entre la vigne, le vin, l'ivresse et la sexualité)...
