i wanna be your dog

Iggy Pop has the right idea; regarding his move to Miami; "I was fed up after 25 years in huge, dark, media-centric cities. I decided to find a house and move here. I was looking for something in a kind of elegant coma with a lot of peace and convenience," (via jezebel via cnn) Even though I dog on Art Basel, is Miami becoming the new New York? Celebs and Icons, young and old, are scoping sunny properties in the penis shaped state and the paparazzi are not nearly as plague-like which I'm sure is a selling point. Though I love pastel stucco and vitamin D, I would rather follow suite with how Thurston Moore and Kim Gordon live in a beyond enviable house in the middle of the woods. Forest creatures and the like are more up my alley than leather skin 30yr old grandma's and JLO jeans. Contemplate, if New York and LA didn't exist, where would the new apex of culture and scene be? While you're at it, look at the google LIFE archives from the 1880's that depict Wallance Levinson's Brooklyn hood as little more than a trees and tall grass.
