Z opowiadania No Forwarding Address<\/em><\/strong> (Josh Dorman)<\/p>\n

Tom was a childhood friend, but we hadn\u2019t spent much time with each other since high school. As kids, Tom and I had filmed<\/u> a comic documentary tour<\/u> of my father\u2019s farm in Maryland. Now, in Somerville, we decided to videotape<\/u> snippets<\/u> of our life in that house. Along with ample<\/u> commentary<\/u>, we shot<\/u> each of the five roommates\u2019 rooms, the kitchen, my basement painting studio<\/u>, the backyard, the bathroom and various and sundry<\/u> details of slovenly<\/u> bachelor<\/u> life.<\/p>\n

Z opowiadania The Iceman of Market Street <\/em><\/strong>(R. C. Van Kooy)
\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

A lot of different kinds of people lived in the Lincoln Hotel. Some were transient<\/u>, sent there by the welfare department<\/u> for emergency housing<\/u>. A few were parolees<\/u> from the prison system. The majority, however, were long-term residents of months and years; mostly single people who managed to pay the modest rent with pensions<\/u>, social security<\/u>, and disability checks<\/u>. A few worked at menial<\/u> jobs for subsistence wages<\/u>. Most were middle-aged to elderly. Almost all had one characteristic in common. They had dignity<\/u>. Their means<\/u> were limited, their futures were generally bleak<\/u>, but they comported<\/u> themselves with dignity and were usually kind to each other.<\/p>\n
