this weekend i went down to fingerprints in long beach and bought a Friends of Distinciton record, the soul group most known for this song (which was unfortunately hijacked and used in a commercial by those bastards at old navy)
watching this video makes me more determined than ever to wear nothing but bell bottoms and suede vests.
other records burchased this weekend:
1. dinah washington
2. benny goodman ( ever since i read Giants of Jazz by Studs Turkel, i've been trying to get more familiar with all the jazz legends)
3. richard pryor, "That N*****'s Crazy"
4. patti smith, easter

I Don't Blame Her!
This article makes me want to send RBG a telegram that says "yo girl, you and i should eat ice cream sometime and have girltalk." Ruth probably hates everyone's guts on the supreme court. scalia and the other men probably sit around eating pork rinds and talking about how much the kind of women they love best is barefoot and pregnant!

Ginsburg Feels Isolated on Court

BOSTON -- U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said Friday that she dislikes being "all alone on the court" nearly a year after the retirement of Sandra Day O'Connor.
Ginsburg, who spoke to an assembly at Suffolk University Law School, said she sees more women in law school, arguing before the court and sitting as federal judges.
"My consolation is that if you look at the federal courts altogether, you get a much different picture than you do if you look only at the U.S. Supreme Court," she said.
Of herself and O'Connor, the court's first female justice, Ginsburg said: "We have very different backgrounds. We divide on a lot of important questions, but we have had the experience of growing up women and we have certain sensitivities that our male colleagues lack."
Ginsburg, 73, did not elaborate or take questions afterward.
