I went to Providence yesterday,there was a huge mall there...there's
something very lonely and depressing about being in a mall,at
times...everything is so commercial,materialistic,it makes me think of
how life just seems to revolve so much around money and buying,plus
the selction is really quite limited in many ways...I remember going
to the mall alot back in High school,but I didn't think about that
kind of thing too much...I notice I also get kind of overwhelmed by
stimulation when I'm in crowded places like malls and casinos...


AT! We have something on which we agree! (Whoda thunk?) I became aware,
oh, between thirty and forty years ago that I found malls, if I was in one
too long, *deeply* depressing. No hyperbole. I think that's gotten better
since, but that may be because I just don't stay in 'em.


How'd you like me to drop the mall on you, tinky winky?
