Meat & Potatoes #31

Reading and music as usual.  I read two selections from the Spring 2011 Lapham's Quarterly on "Lines of Work"; the first was Gloria Steinem's piece on working at the Playboy Club in New York in the '60s, and the second was two emails written in 2010 from an American Apparel manager regarding the dress code.  Creepy reads, to say the least.

Looking at the song titles from this show makes me think that an entire show devoted to songs with parentheses in their titles would be really funny...
