THIS WAS WAITING FOR ME IN MY INBOX: A cool, old Western Union sign from long ago, or not so long ago, or, hell, a time other than now. Who knows and who cares whatever shit they are using these days. I’ll just savor this one.

And readers, it was sent in by Philippe Theophanidis, and we’d like to thank him. Hell of a name, man. A real mouthful of wildness and exotic sounds. Awesome. Thanks for sending it in. Way appreciated.
