Labor Day and the Election of 2012: It’s Inequality, Stupid

Nostalgia.....

Remember Sky Bars? 

"Sky Bars were first introduced in 1937 by Necco, the makers of Necco Wafers. It was the first molded chocolate bar with 4 distinctly different centers. Each bar consists of four milk chocolate-enrobed sections each with an interior of caramel, vanilla, peanut or fudge. Sky Bars were first announced to the public by means of a sky-writing campaign which was a rather dramatic way to introduce a product in the 1930s."

Read this! "you have been here sometime: a conversation with Brian Ferry"

I've mentioned before that I'm a huge fan of Brian Ferry's blog, the blue hour, and of his photography in general. Now Brian has a show coming up at Standard Goods in Los Angeles, and there is a wonderful interview with Brian about his work over at the blog you have been here sometime .  Hmmm...interesting blog name - not feeling self-conscious anymore about "wondering where all the dust comes from."

St. Patrick's Day

Enjoy Salon's evocative slide show by David Creedon on abandoned Irish homes, and the story that goes with it.
