Ours is a society so immersed in the sea of video reactions that there are little old ladies out there who know Hoss Cartwright is more real than their next door neighbors. Everyone of value to them is an image. A totem. A phosphor-dot wraith whose hurts and triumphs are created from the magic of a scenarist’s need to make the next payment on his Porsche. (I recommend a book titled Bug Jack Barron by Norman Spinrad, for a more complete, and horrifying analysis of this phenomenon. It’s an Avon paperback, so it shouldn’t trouble you too much to pick it up.) But because of this acceptance of the strangers who appear on the home screen, ours has become a society where shadow and reality intermix to the final elimination of any degree of rational selectivity on the part of those whose lives are manipulated: by the carnivores who flummox them, and the idols they choose to worship. I don’t know that there’s any answer to this. If we luck out and we get a John Kennedy or a Leonard Nimoy (who, strangely enough, tie in to one another by the common denominator of being humane), then we can’t call it a bad thing. But if we wind up with a public image that governs us as Ronald Reagan and Joe Pyne govern us, then we are in such deep trouble the mind turns to aluminum thinking of it.
Harlan Ellison (The Glass Teat: Essays)
It’s almost seven AM by the time I make it to the Markham residence in the tiny town of Avon, which sits on Hatteras Island where we all grew up.
Sawyer Bennett (On the Rocks (Last Call, #1))
An egg is not likely to grow on its own," said the crow crossly. "She's right," said Edward. "I've never seen a grown-up egg." "The egg doesn't grow!" cried the bird. "It's what's inside that grows." "Then why don't you sit on what's inside?" Avon asked. "Because there's a shell." "What makes you so sure there's something inside?" asked Edward. "It's always been that way!" insisted the crow.

Below, Grandma Elvina's recipe for a comfortable bed: Order a medium thickness egg foam pad from Sears, double up a thick wool Army blanket, and pull the bottom sheet taut across the whole thing. Then sprinkle a little loose Avon powder (any flowerly one will do) and rub it into the sheet.
