You skipping the series on rebuilding the WTC site, too?

Esquire's got to pay the bills somehow -- every September we have to swallow this sour pill, oh well. Even The New Yorker runs a fashion issue, though there's is at least readable. If pages upon pages of fashion ads and spreads is the price for Kevin Fedarko's High In Hell, well, I'll gladly pay. This is the story of the Djibouti, a tiny African country between Ethiopia and Yemen, and its citizen's mass adiction to khat, a plant which serves as a mild stimulant when you chew its leaves. But enough from me--read the article and don't throw out your Esquire so quickly next time.

EDIT: I've written a tad more about Esq. here.
