Matt Taibbi on Lieberman's traveling circus act, from Rolling Stone:
The scene says everything you need to know about the modern Democratic Party. It spends its weekdays sucking off the Pentagon and Wall Street and the pharmaceutical industry, and on the weekends it comes out and spends five minutes getting teary-eyed for the "I have a dream" speech and thinks you owe it your vote because of it. Some party members agree, but quite a few don't, which is why Joe Lieberman—the hawkish one-time vice-presidential candidate who has made himself the most visible symbol of the "new" Democrats—is facing a surprising primary challenge on August 8th. Like Lieberman himself, the "I was there in the Sixties" act is finally getting old.
"I hate the Sixties, and I'm tired of hearing about it—what have you done for me lately?" says Regina Meade, one of the churchgoers. She shakes her head. "I lost a cousin in the war. Twenty-nine years old. What about that? What about that?"
It may be the one blessing of Lieberman's "cut-and-run" campaign -- I don't think we'll be hearing much more of that "Joe marched in '64" shite now that he's a public "fear of hippies" convert.
But now that the GOP transformation is complete, as Julia says -- maybe it's time we heard a bit more about his Republican doppelganger, Alan Schlessinger?

Hippies!
Yippies !
Say what you want about hippies but I wish I was as happy as those two in the pic seem to be.
Ma & Pa!
I still wear tie-dye shirts now and then …
I’m terrified of hippies. They smoke the pot and get those munchies, and the next thing you know, they’re out there eating babies.
I resemble that hippie comment
Hippity, Yippity, Doo Da Day
Time to chase ole HoJo away ! hee hee hee.
Now let’s see. What exactly did the so called hippies stand for? Hummm. “Love, Peace and Happiness” comes to mind. But that’s just for starters.
The irony is that the way that the parties have shaken out recently, the Dems might actually be to the right of the Republicans on economic issues right now. The Goopers are big spending corporate welfare flunkies, while the Dem leadership is is way more fiscally conservative. Us bloggers are still way to the left of the Dem leadership economically, but not as far to the left as we are generally portrayed.
You see what I mean?
it would take an awful lot of dope to visualize Joe Lieberman ever wearing anything tie-dyed … but thorazine would help one recover …
And then there are those corporate hippies, always talking to their birkenstockbroker…
*ilson46201 @ 12
What about Joezac?
Old Coastie, if you’re still around — he is GORGEOUS!!! What a dog. That second picture looks German Shephard-ish but I’m thinking that, Malinois, Akita and maybe (ask *ilson) some Staffordshire? Maybe sometime we can all do some doggie-posting (have to ask husband precisely how…); would love to show you our crew, two greyhounds and a little runt chow chow. The first two were planned, Daffodil was an accident.
Oklahoma kiddo @ 9
I think it was just “peace & love”. Meher Baba took the “Don’t Worry, be Happy” portion. :)
Those are fake tie-dye shirts. The real ones were much fainter, much more random looking, and often had only one color.
I miss those days. Remember when so much of the music was about social issues? People were idealistic and gave a shit.
There is an excellent diary on Orcinus about fundies by a woman who was one and after reading it, well, it’s pretty easy to see how those brainwashed, fearful folks could just freak out entirely (no drugs needed) even seeing that picture of people being so, you know, happy. They really are terrified of just about everything. But in today’s installment, http://dneiwert.blogspot.com/2.....ders.html, she gives some pretty cogent advice on how to talk to someone still entrapped in that mind-set. I recomment it highly.
dannyboy @ 15
I’d love to show pics of my two precious pooches too one fine day here at the lake. Meanwhile let’s help CT rid themselves of HoJo. ;~)
my 68yo Congresslady was active in civil rights back in the 1960s but today she was talking to gay activists about gay Arabic translators being bounced out of the Army and about the importance of supporting Ned Lamont to Joe Salmonese of HRC …
not everybody fossilizes !
Every time the Repubs call Lamont and the anti-war movement “extremist” or refer to “extremists” taking over the Democratic party, the Democratic leaders and candidates, in unison, should repeat and repeat ad nauseum that calling these candidates and voices “extremist” is an insult to and denigration of Americans at large, since 60% of Americans oppose the war. Do the Republicans hate America, since they are willing to denigrate and insult the American voter? Why are the Republicans attacking mainstream Americans by calling them extremist? This needs to be the Democratic talking point, very badly. It is powerful and is the Dem version of the Repub talking point that being against the war is being against the troops.
If the Dems don’t stoop to the same level of labeling their opponents and defining the issues according to their own terms (and not letting Rove do it first, and then defending against him), they’re going to lose.
I was really too young for all that flower children stuff…never owned tie dye hehe…but I remember when I was 7ish, a group of hippies opened a coop a few blocks away from us, and I went in there and ooh and ahhed at all of the colors. Created a major scene when I bought my mom some cheap big plastic blue flower earrings hehe…my parents were just scandalized. No way my mom would have worn them (and as an adult, can’t say I blame her in retrospect lol). She dragged me back down there and demanded my money back :)
My parents were such squares hehe.
KeenObserver - You are absolutely correct: “Why are the Republicans attacking mainstream Americans by calling them extremist?” ought to be our mantra.
And Bush and the rest are still fighting the “culture war”. These guys will never get it. It’s not about war. It’s about… not war.
Kurt @ 22
I managed to stock up on fine tie-dyes at various Grateful Dead concerts, especially at Madison Square Garden in the 80s-90s.
~thenthelightingwill
Kurt — you sound like some kind of sissyboy buying jewelry for your Mom — I too enjoyed shopping for cheap but pretty jewelry for my Mother. Kinda queer, I’d say …
Cheney & Chimp still wanting to defeat the sexier cooler hippies remains the core of our current psycho-narrative.
Peace is coming back.
But it won’t be the same peace that was peddled by Hippies in the 60’s. It will be a peace that is demanded from a generation weaned on Nine Inch Nails and Nirvana. The old peace movement may have died a decade or two ago, but a new peace movement is rising from the grave - and it’s pissed!
As for Lieberman…
I sure would like for someone to pin him down on whether he intends to campaign for DeStephano or the CT House candidates. After he bitched about Lamont hurting their races, I haven’t seen him do a damn thing about them.
“maybe it’s time we heard a bit more about his Republican doppelganger, Alan Schlessinger?
Schlessinger seems to be the willing, as opposed to the duped, type of sacrificial lamb. He looks like he’s really enjoying the attention. If Lamont hadn’t challenged Lieberman nobody would have even heard of Schlessinger,now he gets to be on T.V. and be treated like a serious candidate. If he doesn’t get delusional and start thinking he can win (always a potential problem with sacrificial lambs) he’s guaranteed to be the only person who’s perfectly happy no matter how the election turns out.
*ilson46201 @ 26
Well let’s just say I don’t like sports, but watch Project Runway religiously hehe. Make it work, people!
Right on Sharkbabe.
It’s not like they don’t act out down in rightwingistan — it’s just that they can’t ever be comfortable doing it. And those geriatric hippies (LOVE her hair…) are so carefree. Which is not in their behavioral repertoire, so they hate us.
Mark @ News Corpse @ 28
Ned should offer to help the House Dem Candidates immediately, if he hasn’t already.
Speaking of Matt Taibi, he has an interesting article in tomorrow’s Times Magazine headlined: What are Lieberman’s Foes For?
http://www.nytimes.com/2006/08.....mp;ei=5070
Here’s a personal report from CT: I spent the last couple of days with my daughter who lives in Fairfield County, CT. I talked to her husband about the ugly mess Lieberman is creating in CT. My son-in-law is a good and sincere liberal, but it was kind of shocking how ill-informed he was about what is going down vis a vis the Lamont-Lieberman battle.
At my urging, they voted for Lamont in the primary but he said he was not so sure about the general. His reasons? He did not know much about Lamont beyond his opposition to Lieberman’s stance on the war and closeness to Bush. On the other hand, he maintains, Lieberman has 18 years in the senate, and Lamont has to start from scratch, so who will serve CT better?
I spent some time telling him that Lieberman’s 18 years of experience was the wrong kind, in support of conservative agenda and being a pawn of big corporate and defense industries. On the other hand, Lamont does not have that bad legacy hanging on him, and will go to Washington without a lot of political baggage, that his newness is a great asset here.
Anyway, I think I made headway and I am reasonably sure he is not going to automatically vote for Lieberman in Nov. l
However, my message to the Lamont team is that they better get real busy explaining to the people of CT who Ned is and what he stands for. I see it no longer a question of bashing Lieberman, but establishing who Ned is and what he is for. And, he should come out strong on a platform of the Dems being better for national security. Very strong.
Lieberman should DEFINITELY be asked about supporting those three Democratic candidates. And asked. And asked. And asked. At least until the question, if not his answer, gets national coverage. If not longer.
Sharkbabe @ 27
SharkBabe!
I always bought tacky jewelry for my mom — what kid has enough money to buy good jewelry? She would always wear it out of the house, and then probably take it off, and then put it back on before coming back in the house. Must be why I ended up a librul.

His main downfall seems to be that he was a Black Jack card counter, big deal, so what. That’s neither illegal, or unethical IMO.
GO Alan Schlessinger!!!
and get a bunch of Republican votes ; )
is Alan Schlessinger a wingnut or a “liberal Republican”? what’s his position on abortion? WhinyJoe has been pilloried as a babykiller by the fundies — would they actually vote for an abortionist like him?
Only read a few articles, but is Matt Taibbi one of the best “mainstream” writers around today, or what? Might have to start getting Rolling Stone now, and let’s hope he’s part of a new breed of journalists coming up. Bye-bye Broder.
*ilson46201 @ 41
He’s a hard core wingnut, big time.
Cozumel @ 43
I guess he’s a Bill Bennett Republican.
Cozumel @ 43
but a gambling wingnut like Bill Bennett — fundies abhor the Devil’s pasteboards too
Cozumel @ 43
His website though is curiously silent about the abortion issue in his platform.
If Loserman is trying to appeal to any old hippies who may still be out there, I would imagine he would get no farther than “Strong supporter of George W. Bush’s Republican War in Iraq” (actually, no farther than “war”) and they would be calling Joe a “bummer.”
As for the kind of people from the ’60s that Loserman may actually be trying to appeal to–civil rights activists–I would imagine they would say, “What have you done for us lately? Does the phrase’affirmative action’ mean anything to you? Does the phrase ‘Are you a Bill Clinton Democrat or an Al Sharpton Democrat’sound familiar? How about ‘Lamont can have Maxine Waters and Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, I’ll take Bill Clinton and Sen. Dodd’–remember that one? Can you say, ‘wedge issue’”?
Lots of luck with those folks, Joey Low Road. Maybe you’d better stick to trying to appeal to the war freaks and other right wingers–you know, the Bush/Coulter Republican Party…All We Are Saying, Is Give Ned a Chance.
I haven’t read all the comments so I don’t know if anyone has posted this. But an old hippy has written a new song that made me weep.

*ilson46201 @ 51
Or “bowls”.
OT– I’m so charged up!
We had a convention in Prince William County, VA today to choose a Democratic candidate for chair of the board of county supervisors. Why is this so exciting? Because people came out of the woodwork for a chance to vote and we had a great turnout. Our group included many people from the community who never attend Democratic committee meetings. They came because they wanted a voice.
Tim Kaine carried PWC in the November election, the first time a Democrat for governor has carried the county in over 40 years.
Someone said today that one of our members ran for the board of supervisors a few years ago, and that he was the first Democrat from his magesterial district fielded as a candidate for the BOCS in many years. That’s how totally Republican our county has been for so long, and how times — they are a-changing.
orangejumpsuit 34:
I’m skipping over a lot of posts so apologies if this has already been mentioned, but this is what’s making me NUTS about the party leaders not slamming into Lieberman right after the primary.
A lot of folks see incumbency as pork and power for their state and sometimes they hold their noses and vote for the guy who they think will get more accomplished. And this is why Joe needs to be neutered. Why not vote for Lamont who’s better and more consistent a democrat and progressive if you’re assured that Joe will come back to a junior, not a senior, position in the Senate.
Your anecdote is what I’ve been worried about lately!
Jenny from the Blog @ 54
This is something I’d really like to see Lamont hammering at more. Okay, yeah, sure, Joe has the power of incumbency, and what has he done with it to enrich his constituents (other than himself)?
Better to have a freshman senator actively working for Connecticut than an incumbent senator who doesn’t give a shit about anything other than his own power and influence.
Some pre sleep thoughts about hippies:
I teach at a law school, or, as a colleague says, “I am guilty of making lawyers.” When I teach, I tell my students that, in order to become excellent attorneys, they need to know everything in the world that they can possibly imagine. I urge them to read a newspaper every day (few do). I pepper my lectures with history (few of them know). I urge, cajole and plead with them to listen to what’s going on (few take the time). This has been true regardless where I taught (four law schools in three states) or when (I have been teaching for 12 years).
Meanwhile, this year’s enetering class is, on average 25 years old. That means, the average student was born in –
1981.
Born when Reagan was president. They were 18 (able to vote for the first time) in 1999 — many voted for the first time in the 2000 election.
No one who is less than 50 really understands this hippie talk. They have never read Jerry Rubin’s Do It! or Cleaver’s Soul on Ice (or much of anything else for that matter.) So all of this “FEAR THE HIPPIES” stuff is just aimed at people who already have decided everything. It is only intended to reinforce the MEDIA’s perceptions of itself and its own seriousness. After all, they abandoned the “tune in, turn on, drop out” attitude and they are still suffering for it.
I mean, look at farkin Tony Snow and tell me he doesn’t have a personality crisis about his youth. “Take me seriously,” they all scream, “I ain’t no dirty hippie (anymore)” Meanhwile, the poor fuck showed up in a yellow tie when he was explaining why the Republicans would not support the Republican canddate in Connecticut.
“Take you seriously?” the under 50 voters should say, “FUCK YOU! (and what’s a hippie?)”
Hi Eli -
Oops, I actually edited my comment and it included your points as well… I wondered if the old one shows up while you’re re-wording, and now I have my answer. :)
But yeah, we agree. btw, I love your sea lion photo so much!
Lieberman has 18 years in the Senate - how many minutes/hours does he have in Connecticut that were not just ribbon-cutting photo ops?
How often has he come to Connecticut in response to requests to come?
How responsive has he been to his constituents?
How many town hall meetings has he attended?
How many “Talk to Joe Lieberman” Nights has he held?
The Lamont campaign might want to put a call out for people who have had no luck getting Joe to respond in any way, at any time, and sit ‘em down with spazeboy and his camera and tell their stories.
Eli… although :
Lamont can only come out effectively with this AFTER the party elders tell Joe if he comes back as an independent he can go to the back of the line… I think.
Eli takes such good snapshots, doesn’t he ?
btw, I love your sea lion photo so much!
Thanks! You ain’t seen nothin’ yet, tho.
We must keep supporting candidates and assisting them to clarify the message. National security is about protecting ports and nuclear plants, but it’s also about educating students to read and think beyond the 4th grade level, assuring that citizens have needed and preventive health care, about restoring streams and clean drinking water, about not relying on the middle east for energy, and about mothers and fathers having jobs that pay livable wages.
And let’s not get off Lieberman’s back, find out what he’s doing to support CT dems.
Eli @ 52
oh, you guys are too, too funny!
dannyboy - glad you can see the beauty in my big guy - he’s quite a character! and yes, he probably has all those breeds you mention - truly, an All American! strongest dog I’ve ever seen and gentle as all get out…
Here on the left coast CNBC Tim Russett has George Carlin talking about his new book - “When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops”.
Lamont can only come out effectively with this AFTER the party elders tell Joe if he comes back as an independent he can go to the back of the line… I think.
I don’t think so. The point is that he hasn’t used the power of his incumbency to the benefit of his constituents, so what value does it have?
Anne Holliday @ 64
New? I think I got that for Christmas. Possibly in 2004…
OldCoastie — I love your calling your dogs breed “All American Mountain Dog” - brilliant!
Ever since you described your pitbaby as a “cannonball”, I swear my Bebecito Evo weighs 25 pounds more — damn, that critter’s heavy !
Heavy, man, heavy!
Mark @ News Corpse @ 28
Hi Mark! I think we need a Joe Lieberman voodoo doll. If you make them, I can put one next to my George Bush voodoo doll. Carefully separated, of course. Wouldn’t want ‘em to breed.
Old Coastie - where are the pictures of your dog? I have read comments and can’t find them. Thanks
Eli @ 65
Well, Joe still got a lot of votes so some people think he’s doing something RIGHT. Plus he was a VP candidate, is on powerful committees (even though he sucks at everything he does) blah, blah. I don’t think we can underestimate the way ‘proximity to power’ sways some voters.
So it has to be made clear that whatever perceived power Joe has built up within the party will be gone if he’s returned to the senate. And the dem leaders should’ve done this to make it clear to the fence-sitters.
Anyway…
*ilson - did you see my big guy on the last thread? I know of what I speak! a cannonball, indeed! He weighs 90 lbs, but is about the size of a normal 50 pounder… and every ounce muscle…
Big Dogs
*ilson46201 @ 67
You mean heavy like this?
Or is that too psychedelic man, too trippy?! :)
OldCoastie -
Whoa. That is a mighty handsome fellow!
Eli @ 66
“New” to me, dear. Was struck by the old hippie coincidence and a warm memory of how pleased my Daddy was when Carlin wrote him a fan letter after reading his book “Deadlines, Doxies & Demagogues”.
So it has to be made clear that whatever perceived power Joe has built up within the party will be gone if he’s returned to the senate. And the dem leaders should’ve done this to make it clear to the fence-sitters.
It’s a different argument (i.e., “Even if Joe *did* use his seniority to CT’s advantage, he won’t be able to any more, and will actually have less power than Sen. Lamont would.”), but it would be a powerful one.
However, it is my belief that the Dems will treat Joe delicately so he doesn’t switch teams, which I think is foolish because he’s gonna switch teams anyway.
thanks, Jenny - I’ll tell him! (he loves to be admired!)
And imm - the other thing us over-50’s were privileged to see and experience is the power of the people. At the risk of sounding older than my almost-53 years, “kids today” have never been part of a people-driven revolution about anything. Their perception of the media has no understanding of what it used to be, or what it should be. Woodward (my, how he has sold out) and Bernstein are just those old guys - Redford and Hoffman - in an old movie. The Pentagon Papers? Daniel Ellsberg? Hunh?
I feel a little “Cretaceous” talking this way, but it’s true. A little people-powered revolution would do these kids a world of good - and they’d understand why we care so much.
[note to NSA: not advocating a coup]
neurophius — “Joey Low Road” — I like it, that’ll get used.
*ilson — Yeah I was on the cell phone in Maine talking to someone about “mary jane” and they got paranoid about our friends at the NSA, too. Oh what a world….
Mark 28 — that’s a good point. We should do a post about that, but I doubt anyone will try to pin much of aything on Joey Low Road. Although I will say we had some success in the last week tagging him for refusing to talk about Iraq.
Eli -
We’re having a funny conversation here because we’re saying the same thing. :)
Anyhoo… love those photos!
I still wear a tie-died teeshirt occasionally and the long beard I grew in 1968 is still full but gray. I cut my long gray hair when I became politically active during the recent primary election in California. I’m the unofficial “official” photographer now for local events in Charlie Brown’s campaign in CA-4. ‘Tain’t much, but it’s something I can do.
OT, but at today’s Annual Democratic Picnic in Grass Valley, I mentioned to Charlie that his appearance here at Firedoglake was very well received. He knows that, but was still pleased to hear it. Most local Dems don’t know much about blogs, but Charlie believes the progressive blogs will become increasingly important in national and local politics. Charlie is extremely busy with his campaign, of course, but he will be delighted for more opportunities to converse with us online at Firedoglake and other blogs.
It will take until tomorrow before I post photos from today’s event, but you can see more photos than you ever wanted of Charlie (and a few of Jan) here.
Hippies. Not forgotten. And never seeking forgiveness for disputing hate, greed and dishonesty. And remembered for being in favor of compassion. Idealists? Perhaps. But after all, that’s what we were.
I so agree. But few younger people who have the power (and time and skills and resources) to get involved in a change movement have never had anything threatened. Yet another reason I support universal draft/service requirements (but that is an old and lengthy comment from a year ago).
Jenny from the Blog @ 79
Thanks again! We’re not saying *exactly* the same thing - I’m past tense, you’re future tense. But the Ned result is the same: Joe’s incumbency doesn’t mean squat.
Nah, I’m “coulda woulda shoulda” because it’s already too late and I know that. If the vestiges of power that Joe has accumlated serving as a dem (however lame) were taken away from him the moment he lost the primary and declared himself a “me for me” candidate then things would be different today. Not that I think Ned has lost this thing by a long shot…
That’s all I’m saying.
Oklahoma kiddo @ 81
Well, as a casual glance at pretty much any newspaper these last few years can show you, that’s preferable to the alternative.
I’m obviously incoherent tonight. I probably should be tie-dying a shirt or something instead of trying to write. :)
Jenny from the Blog @ 84
Well, it’s probably not too late (”We have made our best efforts to talk Joe into abandoning this folly, but since he chooses not to listen to us, we have no choice but to sorrowfully take extreme measures…”), but I think it’s unlikely that Reid will do the right thing here.
after this thread, I’m going to have to dig out some good ole granola recipes for Christy next Saturday morning …
Jenny from the Blog @ 86
She’s hopped up on goofballs!
hee hee. FDL = gateway drug.
Why is it, imm, that we feel so threatened and our kids do not? Why can we see the erosion in rights and privileges and they cannot? Yes, it’s true that when we were their age, we - the young men, anyway - had the draft that could snatch people out of their comfortable lives and send them into the jungle. Kids - all of us, really - can delude ourselves into thinking all is well because we can still go to the mall whenever we want: life hasn’t changed enough to make enough people care to see what is slipping away like sand through our fingers.
Might make a good research project - asking young people from 18-25 or so, “what would have to happen before you felt like your freedoms were threatened?”
*ilson46201 @ 88
That’s a great idea… I’ll set my alarm.
Anyone ever do a Qualude?
Eli — when I went to high school in Indiana in the 1950s, I knew of nobody who used any kind of dope — I would have told the police if only to protect my fellow students from a narcotic-crazed killer…
ccmask @ 93
LOL Are you referring to a Rorer 714? Um…
Anne 91 -
I have several friends who teach literature and poetry at a university and they tell me they cannot believe how conservative and sheltered their students are. And this is in the humanities area! They could still get radicalized, for sure, and some of them are starting to wake up, but it’s going to take a while, I think.
Enough commas in that sentence? :)
I had a great neighbor once whose dad was a shrink (she was an artist) and a few years ago, her Christmas tree was decorated with quaalude sample packs… she was hilarious! and I miss her!
Jenny from the Blog @ 86
Maybe you should consult with ‘mary jane’…she always comes through when you most need her.
*ilson46201 @ 94
I never, ever took anything, but I remember my roommate (who most emphatically *did*) telling me that my advisor once sidled up to him, and in his best Casual Hipster voice, said: “So… you and Eli… blow a lotta dope?”
I guess being eccentric and wearing sunglasses All The Time gave people the wrong impression.

I think I’ll just hang with Cozumel and ccmask in the 714 booth. I’M KIDDING!
Oh, that’s the one Coz. That was the drug of choice in my high school. The girls loved them things. It was quite a craze.
Jenny from the Blog @ 96
This is what happens when you blow too much dope - you go into a comma.
(become commatose?)
Taibbi’s article is great. What a portrait of Joe’s sleaziness! I liked this line best:
“As an orator, Lieberman is a pro’s pro. No matter what the crowd, his rap always has the feel of a barroom Casanova’s metronome come-on. He talks and talks, and five minutes later you can’t figure out how his hand got that far up your skirt.”
Jenny,
I have several friends who teach literature and poetry at a university and they tell me they cannot believe how conservative and sheltered their students are. And this is in the humanities area!
Me too.
It’s a result of Ronald Reagan’s policies. We were so lucky to grow up when liberalism was a good thing. Reagan dismantled the education system.
I can say that I am so glad that my daughter had a brain enough to listen to my viewpoint, as well as what the school taught her. She made up her own mind.
She’s not a Democrat, either. She’s a progressive liberal, open to ideas, always seeking positive change.
Ed*ard Teller @ 103
I swear, Joe has some kind of hypnotic powers. Or Super-Duper Pheromones.

“I think I’ll just hang with Cozumel and ccmask in the 714 booth.”
Might I suggest the 420 Booth? Peace.
Jane,
I love your car - the mercedes. I had a boss buy one of those new back in ‘83. It was the nicest car anyone I knew had. Imagine driving a fine automobile like that on doctored up french fry oil.
Well. It’s been fairly well documented that President Bush was a former drug user. As in alcohol, weed, and coke. And look how he turned out.
I am wearing tie-dye right now, as it happens. It’s two colors, so maybe it’s not “real” tie-dye, but I definitely made a real tie-dye shirt when I was a teenager.
