About Me
- Name: Ladrón de Basura (a.k.a. Junk Thief)
- Location: San Francisco, California, United States
JunkThief is your typical Gallic Jew boy born on the Great Plains, went to Gotham and Ouagadougou and Kathmandu before settling in San Francisco's Mission District. Now he searches the dark alleys of that city to find good conversation, Weimar culture and (but of course) the perfect door knob.

I am still searching for Victor Fleming's SENSATIONS, a film full of the old vaudevilleans, with Sophie singing her signature song. I suppose people will consider it a big insult, but I only meant to indicate worship when, in a verse about SENSATIONS, I referred to Sophie as "the Great White Sow of the Universe." I wanted to be one of her piglets. Acid can do things like that to you.

Jim - I assume by signature tune you mean "One of These Days". She's featured heavily (sorry for that pun) in the documentary "From Shtetl to Swing". I don't think Sophie would take offense to that comment. I think she's one woman who thought the words fat and sexy were synonymous.
