The first time I spotted this old gas station sign here next to the railroad tracks and rice fields in Tantzu it was kind of surreal. I felt like it should be next to Route 66 in the middle of America somewhere. It provided a sense of joy and freedom.
One of the most joyful and free pieces of music I know is Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers-Roadrunner. I'm in love with the modern world!
