Funny, I never find things such as this ugly. I suppose if one's definition of beauty is not tied up in aesthetics - then beauty might be defined by some sort of intellectual intensity? But I really love this line: Take things that are hard by nature and try to soften them. Poetic, especially in terms of a crash-up derby. Great observations, Anne.

It's one of those activities you watch not expecting to like but end up loving by the end. Another lesson learned at derbies: if the car catches on fire, jump out the windowless windshield. Anyways, nice post. I love the demolition derby! It’s one of those activities you watch not expecting to like but end up loving by the end.

Just to let you know. The title of Faulkner’s book, as well as the historical figure, is spelled Absalom, not “Absolom.” Just to let you know.
