Hello!

My name is Dylan and this is my blog. This is where I'll put all those things that I think, but don't get to put down in articles elsewhere. Maybe you'll read something about my quest to dress like an adult, or maybe something about a particularly good taco I ate.

At the County Fair

After Y2K, the Starship 2000 was no longer impressive. The fair ride had to be corrected.Reporting back from the Champaign County Fair. I saw some pigs that were pretty cute; I ate a two foot long corn dog; and I listened to some 12-year-olds sing with various degrees of quality. 

The county fair seems like a dying piece of Americana. Perhaps I'm falling victim to the follies of nostalgia, but they always seemed more crowded, more spectacular when I was a child. Now it just seems like a small trickle of people and 30-year-old fair rides.

But, I did have fun.
