text: Perhaps you have not visited the West 11th area recently. If not, try doing it mid-to-late afternoon on a very warm day, much like today is supposed to be, when the muffin tops, wife-beater Ts and most tasteful tattoos/piercings are in their fullest bloom. Wear wraparound sunglasses, so you aren't as easily caught ogling all that eye candy. And deodorant is, shall we say, optional. You owe it to yourself to catch the LTD stop in the Freddy's parking lot. Of course, having EMX on West 11th will change all that, so you'd better hurry if you want to experience this tableau in its native state.
