Adelaide Springett was so ashamed of her tattered boots, she took them off for this 1901 photograph.
She was 8 years old and recorded as lodging with her mother at the Salvation Army Shelter in Hanbury St.

Hot take: having an incoherent septuagenarian scream-lecture America like a man arguing with a self-checkout machine that keeps yelling “unexpected item in the bagging area” might not actually be the emotional support animal we need right now.

Dear US military,
Instead of invading an oil-rich nation for a deranged madman, how about you invade America and remove the deranged madman?!

This is a busy time of year for musicians. Even amateurs like me. My jazz big band has a show Saturday and my concert band has our annual Holiday concert on Sunday. Then I will be done for the year.
