B.B. King is arguably the world’s most well-known blues musician. Almost as well known is the name of his guitar: Lucille. Less well known is the source of the name. B.B. King with Lucille. (Photo courtesy of F. Antolín Hernandez) King was playing a honky-tonk in Twist, Ark., when the building caught fire. After escaping the building, King ran back in to save his guitar. King later learned that…

David Copperfield Chapter 52:

I wonder if Uriah ever did realise just how little David had to do with it...

I love my old Scotland rugby top, but there's no denying that this shirt was designed to be worn with a certain amount of late 1970s chest hair and maybe some sideburns, and that's just not a look I'm capable of pulling off

#Experimenting with collar folding at the moment #If I can get the collar to look something more like a 17th century sark we might be ok but it's not working #Technically the shirt just about fits me even though it was made for men #But the collar is letting the side down #I can't wear it naturally I'm not quite tall and muscly enough and I look like I'm drowning #And not only is my neck too short to turn the collar up (I look like Mr Micawber in his starch) #I'm not sure that poshboy Oxbridge/St Andrews polo playing minor royal is a look I can or want to pull off #Anyway shout out to the Scottish rugby team in the late 70s/early 80s #Wearing those little short shorts and fully open shirt collar complete with chest hair sideburns and moustaches #It's a cold country but they committed to the Look (even if it was a bit of a travesty)

Mr. Wickfield standing in front of a broken coffee machine: Who broke it? I'm not mad I just want to know.

Agnes Wickfield: I did. I broke it.

Mr. Wickfield: No, no you didn't. Uriah?

Uriah Heep: Don't look at me. Look at Mr. Copperfield.

David Copperfield: What? I didn't break it.

Uriah Heep: Huh, that's weird. How'd you even know it was broken?

David Copperfield: Because it's sitting right in front of us and it's broken.

Uriah Heep: Suspicious.

David Copperfield: No it's not.

Mr. Micawber: If it matters, probably not, but Dora was the last one to use it.

Dora Spenlow: Liar! I don't even drink that crap!

Mr. Micawber: Oh really, then what were you doing by the coffee cart earlier?

Dora Spenlow: I use the wooden stirrers to push back my cuticles! Everyone knows that, Mr. Micawber!

Agnes Wickfield: Ok, let's not fight. I broke it. Let me pay for it.

Mr. Wickfield: No! Who broke it?

David Copperfield: Mr. Wickfield, Tommy's been awfully quiet.

Tommy Traddles: Really?!

*Everyone starts fighting*

Mr. Wickfield in another room: I broke it. It burned my hand so I punched it. I predict ten minutes from now they'll be at each others throats with war paint on their faces and a pig head on a stick. Good, it was getting a little chummy around here.

Nickle And Dimed For America

When I complained my cell phone didn’t come with a user’s manual, the woman seated beside me at the retirement center suggested I upgrade to a smartphone. “I’m not smart enough for a smartphone,” I wailed. I got no sympathy. “If you don’t get on the caboose, you can’t ride the train,” she said.  I didn’t bother to explain that owning a smartphone wouldn’t get me a manual either.  Phones don’t come with them these days. “Technology changes too fast to reprint a manual,” said the man who sold me my flip top. I use my cell phone for emergencies, so I don’t want apps or a steep learning curve that changes over time.  I want a portable phone with none of the trimmings. They no longer exist, of course. Apps make money for smartphone companies.    Fortunately, my DVD still works so I’m not required to upgrade to streaming and don’t have to pay for the privilege. The other night, I slipped a disc into the machine to watch a documentary about the fast fashion industry, True Cost. I was unaware that the garment industry was the second-highest polluting enterprise in the world, following close on the heel of fossil fuels. Fast fashion refers to garments made cheaply so that consumers can afford to discard them like hamburger wrappers. Sales volume, not quality, drives the industry.  That may be a boon for the consumer but it’s brutal on the garment worker, most of them women, who live in third-world countries. They work for slave wages in flimsy warehouses because local manufacturers are too small to negotiate for better wages and working conditions from large corporations. Sometimes these sweatshops become dangerous places. When tragedy occurs, owners make small reforms that they abandon as the headlines turn elsewhere. Bottom line, exploited workers make it possible for teenagers in San Francisco, Soho, or Paris to buy a spangled tee shirt for $5.00, wear it to a disco one night then buy another to replace it the next day. Meanwhile, discarded garments overflow landfills and pollute the environment.    But why point a finger at youth when their role models are also profligate? Billionaires are the titans of consumerism. They live as if to dazzle us with their mindless extravagance. Said one writer, Today’s money is indeed shiny, brash, and vulgar. (“I’m Rich, in Case You hadn’t Heard,” by Horacio Silva, Town&Country, Sept 2022, pg. 104.) Unlike their predecessors, the Carnegies, Rockefellers, and Vanderbilts, today’s super-rich wear their avarice like a badge of honor. Social media may be the reason. Elon Musk, for example, has millions of followers on Twitter. They come for the show, and he doesn’t disappoint. A person of conscience is likely to forget that it’s workers who live in extreme poverty who make Musk’s extravagance possible.    Garment workers, farm workers, and day laborers don’t fail to rise in the system because they are lazy.  They toil like field animals.  It’s the system that gives their sweat equity little reward. As Mr. Micawber explained to David Copper in Dicken’s novel: Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure twenty pounds nought and six, result misery. How much does a person need to be happy? The question is never discussed in school.  It should be.  An exchange between two famous writers provides a small clue, however. Together at a swanky party one evening, Kurt Vonnegut, the author of Slaughterhouse-Five, sank into a chair beside his friend Joseph Heller. Pointing his finger to a billionaire across the room he remarked, That man makes more money in a single day than you ever did with Catch-22. Heller paused and then nodded. True. Very true.  But I have something he will never have: Enough. (Ibid, pg 104.)

2023 Sagittarius Crescent Moon

Wednesday, October 18, 13:48 UT, 9°55’ Sagittarius

The key phrase for the Crescent lunar phase is “gather and mobilize resources” needed to support our intentions.

All the lunar phases through November feature disharmonious aspects from Venus. During these several weeks, she’s always semi-square the Sun, and receiving a variety of challenging aspects from the Moon.

By themselves, these aren’t the most fraught aspects in astrology - they may encourage our laziness, petulance, &/or manipulative tendencies - but (1) over time, those qualities (even by themselves) can cause trouble; and (2) when combined with something more dire, can trigger bigger problems.

I wrote in my weekly forecast about “faith in ourselves and the future being the most important resource of all.” That is Sagittarius’ great strength (think Mr. Micawber from Dicken’s classic David Copperfield). Except this time, Venus/Virgo is nagging, criticizing, perpetually finding perpetual fault. The tension encourages us to give up, because things can/will never be as perfect as we want them to be.

Instead - find some kind of a small improvement project. Figure out what you can do, and commit to doing it. Your natal houses holding 10° Sagittarius (Moon) and 10° Virgo (Venus) will show you good places to look for where a little effort would go a long way.

Another W.I.P. animatic! Since the death of Tinky (my character), there's been a vacancy open in her house. My other character, Scarlet, took it upon herself to fill that void! She just had to deal with an unwanted tenant first. :3

⚡️Happy Birthday to photographer extraordinaire Dominique Tarlé who took some of the of the most famous photographs in music history, including this one during the legendary Rolling Stones Exile on Main St. recordings in the South of France in 1971. 🇫🇷 You can see Dominique reflected in the mirror in this amazing shot.. 😉 Joyeux anniversaire Dominique! 🎉 @tarledominique Keith Richards reclines on the parquet floor of the luxurious Villa Nellcôte in the South of France during the legendary Exile on Main St. recordings. ✨ Seated with what appears to be his legendary 1953 Fender Telecaster - nicknamed "Micawber" - in his lap, Keith is surrounded by Anita Pallenberg, looking as stylish as ever with her legs slung over an armchair, Gram Parsons, and Parsons' girlfriend at the time, Gretchen Burrell. The guitar was supposedly gifted to him on his 27th birthday about 6 months earlier by Eric Clapton, and it remains one of his very favorite instruments to this day. ❤️ This image is the most iconic and sought-after photograph from that legedary Summer of 1971. The scene perfectly captures the long warm nights spent working out riffs and the endless mix of family and friends that streamed in and out of that estate. ☀️ This photograph is extremely rare and limited - please contact us for more information via email [email protected] or DM us here. Blender Gallery is the the exclusive representative in Australia for Dominique Tarlé's photographs. ✌️❤️🎶 @tarledominique @officialkeef #keithrichards #exileonmainstreet #villanellcote #dominiquetarle #southoffrance #gramparsons #anitapallenberg #therollingstones #rockandroll #musichistory #legendsneverdie #rockroyalty #telecaster #ericclapton #soulsurvivor #sweetvirginia #rocksoff #exile #muse #icon #fashionista #style #seventies #iconic #rockicon #musicphotography #rocknroll #blendergallery https://www.instagram.com/p/CrxcvkmvfIQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
