BUSY ISNT BUSY ENOUGH. TAKE A PICTURE SWEETIE I AINT GOT TIME TO WASTE.

THIS IS SOMETHING I AM ALSO PASSIONATE ABOUT, RECYCLING OLD FURNITURE, AND OTHER FUNCTIONAL OBJECTS. I ACTUALLY WANTED TO OPEN A SHOP WHERE I SOLD THINGS I RESCUED FROM THE REALM OF THE UNWANTED. GIVEN SOME IMAGINATION AND SWEET EFFORT..THESE THINGS COULD COME BACK FROM THE THRIFT STORE DEATH POOL. WELL HERE IS SOMETHING , NOT QUITE THRIFTY IT WAS A COMMISSION FROM A JOINT IN THE MISSION CALLED EL RINCON.
THIS PLACE IS GREAT, RUN BY MIKE A NIGERIAN WHO IS A MASTER FRENCH/INDIAN CHEF WHO RUN A CUBAN/MEXICAN RESTAURANT BY DAY, BUT WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN YOU CAN FIND ANYTHING THERE FROM JAPANESE GOTH ROCK TO VOODOO CABARET TO RUMBA, SAMBA, SALSA, TRANCE, DRUM AND BASS HOUSE, GANGSTA RAP, OLD SCHOOL PUNK OR ANYTHING YOU CANT IMAGINE, ITS AMAZING.

History of the Dozens

The term "the Dozens" is believed to refer to the devaluing on the auction block of slaves who were past their prime, who were deformed, aged or who, after years of back-breaking toil, no longer were capable of hard labor. These enslaved human beings often were sold by the dozen. In "Still Laughing to Keep from Crying: Black Humor," African-American author and professor Mona Lisa Saloy writes:

The dozens has its origins in the slave trade of New Orleans where deformed slaves--generally slaves punished with dismemberment for disobedience--were grouped in lots of a 'cheap dozen' for sale to slave owners. For a Black to be sold as part of the 'dozens' was the lowest blow possible.".[1]

BOTTLED MESSAGE

FIRE ON THE HEMISPHERE BELOW.

THE HOUSE I SPENT MOST OF MY EARLY LIFE IN....
burned down today...july 5th, any other day
after celebrating fictional independance
dancing with peusdo stars..boom bastic chatter
red glare of rockets betrayed the dark as it became a cinder
burned by celebrations
and moments lived
and moments endured
and moments toletrated
shivering beneath the weight of weakness
and it burns...
burned me once and twice and then some
yet i came back
again again again...
driven, droved
did, doing and done...
my time in reduced to nieghbors long left behind
calling my name in honor of my place in their life...
i know him,
his mom ...im

where is he, who is he...damn
that shit is on fire
its on fire....
save her
save it
save the trinkets boxes..
filled with things only worthy of being fuel
flame food...
food for flame
She was about to be consumed by that house, by that house, by that loss
this loss,
this lie said by this man
a lie i belived until i got burned....
give it up for reality and dad as a simple gesture and wish
Fire.

hmmmm....
