      <![CDATA[got a flat tire outside of Gillette once. heard on the news a few weeks later that a Gillette tire store owner had been shooting out the tires of cars as they were driving on the interstate in an attempt to bring more business to his establishment.<br />
<br />
and the last time i stopped there i saw a guy walk out of a tattoo shop with a fresh "white pride" tattoo on his calf. definitely not my favorite town in wyoming.

      <![CDATA[I have been through Gillette three times on roadtrips across the country. You actually <i>want</i> to hang out at the Rockpile (which really is just a big pile of rocks – the attached museum is always closed) because it seems like the only thing anyone in Gillette was ever excited about. Gillette seems like a town full of Dick Cheney's relatives. There is a weird undertone of violence in Gillette – you feel like you might get beat down at any second. I can say it's the only place I've been in the entire country, except for parts of central South Carolina, where I was afraid to go into the bars. (I actually didn't see any bars, but I didn't want to search them out, on account of I was a'feerd.) All of that being said, I know that everywhere has it's good parts and I probably just missed them. I did have a crappy but oddly enjoyable burrito in a cinder block Tex-Mex restaurant there. And this concludes my treatise on Gillette.<br />
<br />
Oh, here's a picture I took of the Rockpile:<br />
