I know books are supposed to be old media, but there\u2019s something that feels futuristic about holding this one. It\u2019s imperfect, disposable, personal. I can scribble on it and dog-ear it, and read it lying down. It cost around $10 and arrived in less than a week.<\/em><\/p>\n

In the process of pasteurizing, juice is heated and stripped of oxygen, a process called deaeration, so it doesn’t oxidize. Then it’s put in huge storage tanks where it can be kept for upwards of a year. It gets stripped of flavor-providing chemicals, which are volatile. When it’s ready for packaging, companies such as Tropicana hire flavor companies such as Firmenich to engineer flavor packs to make it taste fresh.<\/em><\/p>\n

Many things in the world have not been named; and many things, even if they have been named, have never been described. One of these is the sensibility — unmistakably modern, a variant of sophistication but hardly identical with it — that goes by the cult name of “Camp.”<\/em><\/p>\n

A couple of hours passed. \u201cThen, after I got a sandwich and came out of the store\u2014da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da! \u201d Gravy told me later, mimicking the sound of gunfire. \u201cThe only thing I remember is falling, and knowing that I\u2019m shot\u2014just don\u2019t know where. It\u2019s not like, when you get shot, \u2018Oh, I got shot here.\u2019 Nah. You know you hit, so your mind frame is\u2014you pumped, your adrenaline is going. I reach my hand over, and I see I\u2019m bleeding.<\/em><\/p>\n

For those who know, this is the open secret: War is exciting. Sometimes I was in awe of this, and sometimes I felt low and mean for loving it, but I loved it still. Even in its quiet moments, war is brighter, louder, brasher, more fun, more tragic, more wasteful. More. More of everything. And even then I knew I would someday miss it, this life so strange. Today the war has distilled to moments and feelings, and somewhere in these memories is the reason for the wistfulness.<\/em><\/p>\n

That was in the Year of Our Lord nineteen hundred and ninety-three. And then, the Years of Our Lord passed. I went to bed every night looking at that shot, I woke up every morning looking at that shot, every single day. For over 10 years. <\/em><\/p>\n
