My first Moment of Unclean with LA was being on top of Mount Wilson and realizing that Los Angeles was to the horizon in all directions.

My next Moment of Unclean with LA was driving in from the East and hitting the smog in Arizona.

My third Moment of Unclean was recognizing that the freeway system through downtown is best understood as the blood supply that develops around a tumor.

Albuquerque was the Big City when I grew up. We'd drive two hours just to hit a music store that had The Cure in stock. It feels like a truck stop once you've acclimated to the 10-110-101-5 nightmare.
