a firm grip on nothing at all

Welcome to a world where crazy is normal, Pabst Blue Ribbon makes a great breakfast drink and unemployment is the best job security there is. In this depraved tour of the American underbelly, potato chips constitute a balanced meal and dive bars are a great place to make new friends while escaping vengeful women who possess a penchant for hissing and tossing whiskey bottles for entertainment. It's a special place where garbage is considered wall decor, mailboxes are sometimes mistaken for toilets and too much sobriety leads to cloudy decision making. If you're lucky, you may get out in one piece.
