RIP, Uncle Red

the tuxedo



one of my favorites  - the box


I tried to pick two Qs that were a little easier (as well as felt apropros) this week

and share that I think my answer to the last one would have to be the audience at a George Clinton concert (with guests) - FROM THE STAGE

(yeah, that's a whole story)
