'Used to stop playing sports when the family Oldsmobile would pull in to pick me up. The coach would go insane. There's truth to one's expression when shooting the basketball, kicking the soccer ball. Even at ten. 'Was getting to freedom.
Going old-school God's Country through the railroad days 'got the job done. It's proven worthy of recovery. Witnessing the stoicism lift more daily. 'Having gotten the good job, the one the locals said I'd acquire upon first arriving, has settled Ashe into a thirtysomethings American dream.
It's awful bourgeois. In the Guard it wasn't loud, the middle class around, still the old Carolina, but really Big Army. Now they're the usual meet-and-greet, civilians aggressively civilian, their females speaking valley-girl, the guys wanting to look pretty.
Always the holidays cause stateside to look more like the original stateside.
"It's swell, the quiet perfectionist thing," says a fellow war veteran and new employee, us on our way to festivities. "And your civies have gotten more dapper. But if you'd speak more at work everything would be easier."
