The Substance of Style
James Lileks' trip to DisneyWorld continues apace:
Gnat – who’d ridden Space Mountain without a care – was slightly freaked out by the Haunted Mansion, and not without reason. It was stunning. Wonderfully creepy. We rode along, floating in the dark over a void the depths of which you could not sense, passing the desiccated corpses and cobweb-draped skeletons, observing a ballroom where everyone spun around in eternal pursuit, so focused on the dance they'd forgotten they were dead.
What an excellent metaphor for my life in newspapers.
Read the whole thing--it's a small Bleat, after all.
