It’s the classic Alice’s Restaurant scenario. Except there wouldn’t be a case of blind justice.

Holy smokes, that’s some stream- of- consciousness shit right there.

The story of Alice’s restaurant takes place during Thanksgiving, so it’s been a tradition to listen to the entire Massac ree (sp) every Thanksgiving day.

One of my favorite lines is “...twenty-seven eight-by-ten color glossy photographs with circles, and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one was, to be used as evidence against us.” I entertain myself by quoting that line whenever anyone breaks out a camera and starts taking pictures. I say, “entertain myself” because I have never quoted the Massacree and had someone else recognize the quote. That’s ok, ‘cause I still find it very entertaining to quote an obscure song even though the pictures being taken will end up on Facebook or Instagram or maybe just languish on some digital card never to be seen again. It’s unlikely that anyone will ever print them out as 8x10 color glossy photos and put circles and arrows on the front and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what is going on. I have a whole pile of color glossy photos that nobody bothered to put a name on or a date and now the people in the photos are lost to time since the people who took the photos aren’t around any more to tell us who those other people are.

Ah, well. I guess that’s a problem for another day.

There’s a new-ish Woodie Guthrie Museum here in Tulsa. I need to get other there sometime.

I didn’t know that! N ow I have a reason to go to Tulsa.

My yearly Alice’s Restaurant tradition started with KATT in OKC playing it every year. I wonder if they still do that.
