Urbanite Leaves the City for a More Peaceful LIfe
Chris might have been considered a hermit by some people, but in fact it was the way that he had chosen to live. He had given up on the daily rush of being a commuter traveling to a boring office job. It seemed he spent more hours working and travelling to and from work than he did at home with his family. Unfortunately the job paid very well as he worked in the technology sector when the industry was booming. He worked for over thirty years and amassed a small fortune for himself in his bank account and when he was entirely fed-up, he moved on.
By that time his only child, a daughter had grown up and moved on by herself. His wife had left him years before as she got tired of the marriage and never seeing her husband, but they both decided that maybe it was for the better. He bought a piece of land that was put up for sale and bordered a national forest in the woods of Maine. It wasn't much of a house and more like a cabin, and the power company didn't have any service where he lived. His house was actually only intended to be a summer cabin that was accessible when the state maintained the road through the summer and fall months, after that he didn't have access to his cabin.
He also had a small apartment in the town where he did all his shopping and where he worked in the winter to keep himself occupied. He didn't need to work by any means, but it gave him the opportunity to get a free ski pass and also spend his time outside. At his apartment he had satellite television where he kept up to date on everything including the news and the sports. As soon as the state opened the gates in the spring he moved back out to his cabin where he remained until the first snowfall.
Everything he had was powered by solar panels that he had set up to collect energy. He had a television there but he didn't have another satellite subscription just because he was a bit of a penny-pincher. The previous winter he had discovered a device that he could use to bring the satellite television from the apartment to the cabin in the woods. This way he could keep track of everything going on in the outside world, which eliminated daily trips to town to buy the paper.
He had all of the channels that he had subscribed for on his satellite plan, and he had a clear view of the southern sky which allowed him to receive the satellite signal on his Sat-Go device. It wasn't the same as having a big screen television, but if that was what he wanted then he wouldn't have chosen to live out in the wilderness most of the year. The solar panels produced more than enough electricity to power everything he had, and he could even connect a DVD player to the device and watch a movie when he wanted. It was far and away the best deal he had discovered when it came to satellite television.

The Cabin $8.99 In these mordant, elegant, and often disquieting essays, the internationally acclaimed dramatist creates a sort of autobiography by strobe light, one that is both mysterious and starkly revealing. The pieces in The Cabin are about places and things: the suburbs of Chicago, where as a boy David Mamet helplessly watched his stepfather terrorize his sister; New York City, where as a young man he had to eat his way through a mountain of fried matzoh to earn a night of sexual bliss. They are about guns, campaign buttons, and a cabin in the Vermont woods that stinks of wood smoke and kerosene -- and about their associations of pleasure, menace, and regret. The resulting volume may be compared to the plays that have made Mamet famous: it is finely crafted and deftly timed, and its precise language carries an enormous weight of feeling. From the Trade Paperback edition. |
