1. Love Tell Mama and Wang Dang Doodle better.

But generally, love Savoy Brown.

2. Listened to this album on 8 track all night my last day in boot camp ...

... got searched by the FBI at O'Hare the next day for filling the "hijacker profile".

3. Yikes!!!! And they found out you are..? Right?

[marble falls]

4. They knew who I was. They knew why I was there. I think my SDS and Weathermen ...

... participation had something to do with it.


I get the full search a lot. Before Sept 11, I always won the random luggage search lottery. I usually had pot in my luggage. How they never found it suggests, they did find it but wanted to see what I may have been up to.

Seriously, they never found it, even when it was in a baggy on top of everything. In an envelope in a book. In a Sucrets tin. As joints in my clear plastic toothbrush safe.

I helped organize the Mobilization Against the War in Akron and Kent.

The hardest thing about Florida Man's term in the White House was not being able to get to Austin to march. Still wear black Converse Chuck Taylor's. Being in my 70s and fighting cancer slowed me down a tick.

But I am coming back!

5. Ahhhh the Sucrets box. You can find them on line for about $4.

I had a small metal Whitman sampler box too. Good times!!!!

6. That tin was in a lot of my life, still have it in the garage holding fasteners ...

... got a great story about that tin when I was at Great Lakes, 50 years ago ... gawd dang ... I'm getting old.

7. I kept bending those little metal hinges and mine keep wearing out.I have one all ugly and chipped

8. But it's full o' soul! My hinges are getting worn out, too!
