Note to a FlickrContact in Moscow:
I have signed up for your next adventure "_ _".
For 150 years there is no big blood on our USA soil.
You can say, "What do you know Bill".
We kill people in other countries.
We are killed slowly with cars & chemicals & racism & no-healthcare/jobs & Etc.
We 99% are slowly killed by top 1% Goverment/Capitalist Criminals.
It is now International/Global neo-conservative/liberal capitalism ... the 1% rules us all.
Most of us more than some of us !.
I am a very lucky self-defining communist.
Best for you "_ _" and your people.
Love.
Bill.

Have not felt this since 1947*
My homie flew back-in
My message on her leg
Ate and flew out-there
Free as a bird

*I have already been reminded
that I've had this feeling since
many times in many contexts.
Bill Dane
Wondered over the years
Who would I 'be'
If I were a $picture-star$
Nothing but denims ?
$99. unlimited-editions ?
99%er ?
Evolved into what ?

Flickr for us-all:
Until Nick (lofisymphony.com/) and I started building
The Website together in 2007 (and on it goes)
I rarely looked at other's art & pictures.
'69-'71 Atget-Evans-Frank-Diane-Gary-Lee + were 'digested' ?
I set up low-budget homing (ignore my bio-facade) underground.
The goal has always been to have my pictures well-seen.
Mailing picture-cards from day-one = pleasure-filled
But to a way too limited audience.
The amazing internet led to "Bill Dane on the internet."
And then this "Flickr-Photostreaming".
Hot f---in' what I didn't know I was waiting for.
Hello, pleasure-connectors = receptors-reciprocators-comrades.
So! I was lucky to have you pass thru my Flickr & to find yours.
Bill Dane
"Appropriation Art":
I.E., pictures of faces-trees-sunsets-+whatever
Just behind TheGoldenRule-Cleanliness-+
This "Bill Dane on the internet." is full of it !
My Flickr "Photostream" is piled high !
Yakety yak .. don't talk back.
Bill Dane
All that matters is size and control
Huge large medium small tiny
The rest is commentary

Miles Davis
American
Where you can find your-own:
Throughout a professional career lasting 50 years, Miles Davis played the trumpet ... Davis was the son of a dental surgeon, Dr. Miles Dewey Davis, Jr., and a music teacher, Cleota Mae (Henry) Davis, and thus grew up in the black middle class of east St. Louis ... (He went to) the Institute of Musical Art in New York City (renamed Juilliard) in September 1944. Shortly after his arrival in Manhattan, he was playing in clubs with Parker, and by 1945 he had abandoned his academic studies for a full-time career as a jazz musician ...
In 1955 cousin Surry drives us to San Francisco
Miles Davis is at The Blackhawk (Turk n Hide)
We are 16 ..ffake ID's ..imagine
BreakTime .. Miles comes to beside me at the bar
