I'm Not Even Hungry

Starry Night

If you ever want to feel high without paying for it, and if you don't have cool friends who let you mooch, then the next best alternative is to live in a city for the majority of the year, then take a trip somewhere where the stars come out at night. They probably won't look as cool as those in the picture, but there will be free candy. I promise. Even if there isn't candy, there will still be stars.

In an essay that's so rewarding it's not even funny - and normally I find rewarding essays hilarious, so that's really saying something - Emerson says that "If the stars should appear one night in a thousand years, how would men believe and adore; and preserve for many generations the remembrance of the city of God which had been shown! But every night come out these envoys of beauty, and light the universe with their admonishing smile." Holla, E-Dog. Holla.
