"Bill reminded himself to read the pavement signs before he crossed the street. It was so perfectly damn sensible they ought to make it the law in every city, long-lettered words in white paint that tell you which way to look if you want to live." (Delillo - 120)

I dont know, I'm doing that report thing and this kinda struck me.
whatever.

Take living as "life" or the reality that we live within in our culture.

It's totally mass-media[in the context of that one quote you posted, I'm going to catch up all my reading tonite] telling the pedestrian which way we have to look--image wise--to survive.

Reminds me of middle school... uggghhhh. "Why are you NOT wearing abercrombie?"
