    Yes, all correct here. I wish I could find the Yuketen dirty bucks somewhere. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough.

    As usual you've nailed the atmosphere right to the wall. These pictures in this order make me imagine so much great stuff.

    What do you think of Double S?

    I got my haircut yesterday and showed 'em the picture of Kerouac with arms crossed. Didn't work on account of it was a SuperCuts, but I tried.

    Then I showed the picture of Paul Newman w/abs popping to my girlfriend. She's not speaking to me until I look like that. Gonna be a quiet summer.

    This is wonderful. I especially love the Long Island and Montauk images. I'm from there, so this makes me miss it there more than I already do.
