BACK TO SCHOOL

Thanks to one of our best friends (and official JaGoFF photographer) Mr. Phat Tony, we got seriously schooled in the funk for the second day in a row - this time by Chi-town legend Herbie Hancock at the Chicago Symphony Center last night.


Check out this classic clip from 1974 if you want to get funked like never before.

(...oh, and don't forget clean underwear!)

UNLIMITED SECURITY APPARATUS (part II)

Thank God!

Now we feel safe!

"Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."


-Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania, 1759
US author, diplomat, inventor, physicist, politician, & printer (1706 - 1790)
