City slickers

Solan and I, trying heroically to acclimatize ourselves to life in The Towns. Double latte and pain au chocolat at a curbside café. Note backpack and checked shirt.

Very chic. I can't stand being in a city more than a few hours at a pop, so you're looking more cheerful than I would in your situation.

Solan likes double lattes?

First thing that came to mind was "A Boy and His Dog" (1975 I think). Double lattes instead of popcorn.

Woah...there have been days recently where all I want in life is a chair.

Andy: I find the city bearable. But all the people!

Oldfool: I looked up "A Boy and His Dog". And noticed this: "The film was also distributed after the initial run under the name Psycho Boy and His Killer Dog."

Sara: I know the feeling! When I've been in a situation as yours, I've often carried a lightweight, net-like hammock. Just to have a dry place to put my butt.

Lawanowan: He is! But what is he doing with that shifty-looking character?
