orange is the new black

the yuchenko ukrainian story is probalby the most compelling story i have heard in my lifetime. the signer who disented onair, the oragne banners, the zeal.

the reindeer effect took a jubilee year this year- it is in temproary retirment. in its place was a perfect little alley-dwellers progressive dinner. we had differnt parts of the meal at respective 269ers homes. it was great. a small affair with good food.

my paintings are coming along. more to come in january.
