From "The Black Veil" by Rick Moody

      I really enjoyed this piece. Moody's writing style is very clever and easy to follow, it kept me intrigued throughout the entire passage. The road trip taken by Moody and his friend seems very simliar to what I believe many of us in college want to do: go somewhere we've never been before and do something we've never done before. Moody's descriptions were very detailed, and he did a wonderful job of adding a perfect amount of humor and sarcam where need be.
