HEY!! A Wisconsin high school marching band in the Rose Parade stops in front of union-busting Governor Walker and serenades him with Woodie Guthrie’s “Union Maid.”

Good for the students!

Good for the teacher/band leader! 

Union rights = civil rights!

May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you’re wonderful, and don’t forget to make some art — write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can. And I hope, somewhere in the next year, you surprise yourself.
