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.

Goddess bless those who keep Sophie Tucker in their heart. I guess I have mentioned that in an old verse -- bound to be misunderstood - I refer to her with great reverence as the Great White Sow of the Universe - but I can see that some might not see that as a prayer to a deity. Only a mother goddess could sing to the sad child in us, "You can't sew a button on a broken heart."
Since last week ended with Joey Heatherton, it just seemed we had to start this one with Sophie.
