Conspiracy
In the 50s and 60s the fastest way to weaken a labor union was to locate the smartest, most vocal organizer and promote him into management.
None of them could resist the pay increase.
Over dinner with K one night I wondered if this technique was by turning rappers into actors: Ice Tea, Ice Cube, DMX, Snoop, Tupac, Mos Def, Ludicris, RZA, Dr Dre, etc.
K: Well let's see, you find the strongest inciteful voices that have the attention of a certain group of people....yep.

New Breed
New Breed was a circa 1973 label. I found this in my warehouse today. Mod men's shirt, deadstock, factory folds still obvious, and check out that matching clip on tie. Pocket print matches the shirt. A rare glance back. Union made :)
Baby is ill
I spent 1.5 hours in my car yesterday while Bellie was inside the Vet's office getting an IV of fluids, injections of meds, scripts, blood work, and special food which she is ignoring. She is ill. Bloody diarrhea = colitis. Vomiting. Worse, she can't tell us how she is feeling.

Three crows
Three crows were rolling dice in the alley this morning.
They glanced up as I passed and eyed the trash bag. I hesitated before opening the dumpster, reviewing the contents of the bag wondering if any of it would interest them. One asked me to join them for a game. They wanted to bet on the bag.
