Just back from the protest in Brooklyn at Barclays Center. Utterly calm and nobody looking for a fight. The I left and dozens of cops from the other side of the stadium march towards the protestors… And then after than like 1 dozen police vans all filled wit NYPD show up.

Jeff Moore! I walked past your place the other day, was hoping I'd spot you and/or K. from a socially acceptable distance, but alas, 'twas not to be.

We were all wounded at wounded knee
You and me
We were all wounded at wounded knee
You and me
In the name of manifest destiny
You and me you and me you and me.
They made us many promises
But always broke their word
They penned us in like Buffalo
Drove us like a heard
And finally on the reservation
We were going for our preservation
We were all wiped out by the seventh Calvary
You and me you and me.

I needed a major distraction today and I was fortunate to find one. I hadn't used my smoker in seven years and I just spent the day stocking the larder with smoked meats.

If this makes anyone feel better, there was this guy in Park Slope this afternoon that was on the top of a three story building (5th and Union) just wolf whistling at people. Women, men, kids, the elderly dog… The guy was socially distances and whistling “Wooo-Wooo!” at everyone.

God bless this mess!
