How can you buy or sell the sky, the warmth of the land, the name Parts Are Edible? The idea is strange to us. If we do not own the freshness of the air and the sparkle of the water, the inspiration one afternoon so long ago, how can you buy them?
The print edition now retreats before the advancing blog, as a box of rain evaporates before the morning sun. We know that the blog man understands our ways, though one portion of internet is the same to him as the next... the web is not his brother, and when he has conquered it, he moves on. He leaves old websites behind, and he does not care. He kidnaps the tomato hornworms from the earth and posts them. The blog man's appetite will devour the parts that are edible and leave behind only a dessert.
