Moving through the landscape at a million miles an hour.


It was in Lugo, 1984. Someone got a copy of a music magazine, and the guys, Adam and Arden, were gawking at this picture of German pop singer Nena. She had hairy armpits. They thought that was really gross.

I looked at the picture, at her exposed underarm. I was intrigued. You might say aroused.

And I knew something about myself I hadn't known before. Isn't it nice to know a lot?

That is not the photo I would have selected if I were her.
