Stonehenge Replica

There is a Stonehenge outside a failed and depressing subdivision in Athens, GA. The builders thought a replica of the Druid calendar, altar, or space-beacon (whatever the hell it is) would lend a bit of class and style to their business venture. It did not. The subdivision's middle- to low-range housing is generally full of drug dealers and college students who located there because of the cheap rent and proximity to the drug dealers.

[John Mann, 11/25/1997]
