I dont even know how to 'play' the lottery.
But I am lucky.
Berkeley public-schools art-teacher 32 years.
Picture-hunter w/$1600 mo 'pension'.
Way-underpaid Edu-Prof-Wife doin' good-works.
Twins in colleges = loans n joys.
Plus hella-goodies.
Entitled-white-guy still gotta chuckle every time I'm asked to donate.
My Grandfather could - William Larned Thacher = Thacher Gates.
My Thacher-Mother couldn't afford Midland -Grampa's gates got me 2 years free.
Forget Thacher.  Even I said that.
'Poorish'-blacksheep cousin Edith Thacher Dane born at Thacher School in '13.
'Raised' at Thacher.  We got to come up from LA every xmas n summer to play.
Vassar whizz But, "You cant be a doctor, Edie." = WOMAN in the 1930s.
Her fucking favorite uncle-male doctor at Yale dished-up this bile.
She worked at LA County hospital screening cancer-slides.

Headed the Valley-area EconOppCouncil under LBJ.
Got a cross burned on our lawn for fighting to get jesus outta-town-center at xmas.

! OhOhOh was Midland a huge Gift for me.
Literally saved my-pink-ass.
I went to silly-pasadena-high 12th grade. 
In order to complete my momentary-renaissance.
I needed to physically leave Midland and my past for a billy-tabula rasa.

Relieving myself in public. 
The least of stuff.
Be well.
Bill.

Pasadena, CA. 
Talk about ice-stone-cold racism in the '40s n '50s ... Now.
Immersed !& life-saved by !Mommy's Acts ... little-talk. 
How we even danced-in-awe 9 feet from Nat King Cole.
!? At the Pasadena Civic Aud in '56.

A kind of real.
I put 'new' pictures on Flickr every week.
Bob Dylan.
I use Pandora.
Feels like I could find words that pretty-much-sum-it from each of his '60's + songs.
Being a Baroque n Mozart guy - I've mostly 'listened' to 'sounds'.
