7.13.08. An old trick I learned in Silverlake- a neighborhood walk after supper with 15 minutes of daylight left over. A hint of lavender around the last puffy clouds still in the darkening sky. Walking helps you digest, and think clearly, bubbles of reflections… I’ve been living my last three years like a gypsy never at an apartment longer than a year. Cooking and cleaning is no big thing… Ward cleaver makes a much better father than Jim Anderson. June is a fox and a loving mother, but she could get a part-time job… Tom Hall and Ernest Tubb won’t ever go out of style; just wish you could still buy their records somewhere…

An interesting background on the Wayfarer- like the Telecaster and the Les paul, the wayfarer has a storied tradition in American history. They were made popular by Audrey in Breakfast at Tiffanys and Marilyn off the screen in the fifties. Brought to you by Bausch and Lomb at the request of an airforce pilot general who complained that the blinding light of the skies had ruined his eyes. Old Douglas Macarthur always had a steel-framed prototype on, and for just 150 dollars you can have your own pair of Wayfarers at American rag sold to you by one of the pretty clerks on La Brea.
