1. Sandy beaches are edged with swamps, greenery explodes as soon as the salt waters dilute.

2. “I have a friend who can tell you what year a commercial aired just by watching the actors– body language is important, this is important– why can’t you understand that?”

4. Massive freighters trail behind each team of tugboats, chugging forward in parallel like draft horses on a hitch.

5. Staying calm isn’t always about detachment.
