If you like chaos and the confusion of words couched in the mundane and extraordinary, then you will enjoy the narrative journey of Paste. The stems of fruit make swell hats, although tedious to weave. Semi full of wooden flooring. Bellybutton lint always the same blue. Part-time cowboys need not apply. People in South Dakota watch Wheel of Fortune just like we do.
