...she dances on the sand, just like that river twisting through a dusty land and when she shines she really...

Oh, damn. Wrong song. Anyways, started this last night; and would I sound crazy if I said that the first chapter makes absolute sense now and wouldn't have in 1999 (when I first started it)? I mean, Burroughs is supposed to make sense to the teens and 20s; and then fade away like a bad camping memory. Instead, this is strong, strong stuff - definitely a touch of magia negra Uncle Bill is tapping here.
