The trees, lampposts, litter bins and traffic signals.
Crossings and lanes.
Design.
Engine sounds.
Music, rhythm, and melody.
Balm of the city.

Not a dry eye in the house.
It was the laughter, they were far funnier than anyone expected.
Not a clown, they’re sad, but sheer brilliance in humor. The sort that takes a high-pressure subject and deflates it like a sagging balloon without a future.

All this without intoxicants of any kind.
Honest governor!

Silence could be measured. Sound not so much.

Knowing and Discovery were thrown out of a bar for fighting.
