I can’t get enough r’s on the end of that! Damn it’s cold in Chicago again. We went to our neighborhood meeting last night and drove because it might get bad. We went in and it was cold. We came out into a blizzard.
Mr. Fuzz was waiting for us when we got home looking like [...]

I can’t believe I forgot to post about this. My friend Judithe was one of the East LA Latino muralists in the 70s. She’s a very, very talented artist and I am just always blown away by her work. She did an instillation at the Mexican Museum of Art in Chicago a few years ago [...]
