Episode number seven of the fantastic Razing Mississippi series finds Laura Gibson at the wheel of a catepillar um… um… machine? Seriously, what the hell does that thing do? I’m a limp-wristed word pansy, so my knowledge of macho construction equipment is not too sharp. Anyone?
But what I do know about is the gorgeous music of Ms. Gibson–the flower growing through the cracks of the industrial cinderblock wasteland that will someday soon house the new Mississippi Studios venue–who debuts a new song, “Spirited,” in her performance here.
End Hits: All we know about construction workers is that there used to be one in the Village People.

That’s called a forklift, smartguy.
Ezra, that is obviously a razing machine… duh! Thank god I work here so I can balance out all of the rampant femininity.
Oh, by the way! Are you done borrowing my Danielle Steel novel yet? It’s part of a set. I don’t want to lose it.
It’s a fork lift…it lifts stuff.
