Welcome, horzarules.

I'm thrilled to see urban ranger sites are
proliferating (internationally!) and I like your take
on it. No poem, but more poetry. I like the whole
"choosing to like it" bit, redeeming something
necessary and "bad" into something perhaps even better
than the bluntly good. It's spiritual. Not bad for an
aerobic exercise routine! 

We should link to each others pages, give each other a
tad more google pagerank. Deal?

Looking forward to more "glimpses,"
