"I'm 67 Today"


                       This an ink sketch of myself as a lad from a class photo.

                               I was about eleven when the photo was taken.
                               That, and perhaps 23 when I made the sketch.
                                  I was 64 when I tipped in the colored foils.

                                                       Art takes time.

There should be a picture where this sweet lad takes it all off. I think you said there's a movie of that inspiring theme. It ought to be archived and treasured at the Smithsonian, and lovingly unwrapped every so often for rapturous public display!

I had something a bit more fleshy in mind, like the following. Provo Park, Berkeley CA, Summer 1969:

I was at most of those concerts that Summer. If you see a young kid sitting on one of the amps, that's probably me.
