We were there during the merry time of Spring Break, and Duval Street had become a kind of rum-drenched mosh pit. The college kids have been busy turning themselves into proto-barbarians, all tattooed up and pierced, making themselves look scary, as though via some collective radar they all sense the kind of world they are growing up into. As they return to campus, now, they can watch it reveal itself on War-TV.

Estuvimos allí (Key West) durante la festiva temporada de vacaciones de primavera, la calle Duval se convirtió en un tipo de “mosh pit” Los niños universitarios han estado ocupados transformándose en proto-barbaros, todos tatuados y perforados, quieren asustar con su apariencia, como si por un radar colectivo todos ellos percibiesen, el tipo de mundo donde se desarrollan. Ahora que regresen a la universidad, podrán ver la revelación de su mundo en TV-GUERRA
