Special post--interview of artist Ed Ruscha.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CDQ5iynxYE
Thanks to my friends in San Fran who took me to an exhibition of Ed Ruscha's paintings.
"A word has no size" so we can make it as small or as large as we wish.
It also gives the lie to that stupid Q some of my classmates asked. "Who is your audience."
As if anyone cares.
I sold things I thought no one would like, such as a jacket I thought "did not work" and a painting, a self portrait, that I painted mainly for myself.
So.
As Martha Graham said, "I don't care whether you can dance. Just get up and dance."
I know I was very influenced by seeing Martha Graham dance, in Rangoon, when I was about 8 or 9. She came later, but then her student danced and it was just not the same.

Landmark decision--US Supreme Court rules 4th Amendment protects cell phone records.

FYI, in 2007, in what later became known as The Saffron Revolution,
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saffron_Revolution
the monks' leader U Gambira was tracked by his cell phone.
My source was a broadcaster based in DC and he told me this while we were at a debriefing at the NED by the World Bank? delegation wh suggested freeing controls on fuel prices, which resulted in widespread rioting.
The monks demonstrated peacefully by walking and reciting the Metta Sutra, but were lassoed, caught and arrested and tortured.
U Gambira was forced to disrobe and beaten and tortured, and he suffered permanent brain damage and had to leave the monkhood on his release from prison.

On our way back from the Grand Canyon trip, we boarded planes in Las Vegas.
My red jacket fell on the floor & I got dust on it.
Liz said, "Look at you, K, you look like a refugee."
"I am, didn't you know?"
So are we all.
If we sought refuge, we are refugees.

All the crimes committed during state-sanctioned separation should be tried in Court.

Ever saw movie or read Sophie's Choice.

trmp (intentionally mispelled) just thought he'd stamp on the smallest youngest most vulnerable of us as "distraction"
Well, he was WRONG.
If it's not his policy, whose is it??
kirsten should resign.
EVERY CHILD separated must be reunited with his or her parents.

Former President Bill Clinton and bestselling author James Patterson talk about their novel, The President is Missing.
https://www.politics-prose.com/
Both are very intelligent and some of the things Clinton said about cyber
warfare are amazing.
Maybe I should get the book after all.
