CAYA - An Autumn Reckoning

Dear Lost Souls,

Coming off another hiatus ... and with more on the horizon, the Haberdashery is pleased to host you for a reunion of images, ideas, and reckonings for the weeks past and the weeks ahead. Like a microcosm of the universe itself, CAYA's future is alway uncertain, but inevitably filled with beauty, wonder ... and some occasional dark matter. Come see what it is on the temporal horizon and help us debate the absurdity of it all.

Yes, my Polemic Proletariate, Cocktail Hour in on for this Friday evening. Cocktails will be served beginning at 7:30pm. As always, please feel free to stop by for a quickie en route to your evening's primary congress . . . or to filibuster indefinitely.

Yours,

Los Cabañeros

CAYA; Hoverboards and Healthcare Reform

Dear Lost Souls,

This Wednesday was June 27th, 2012; the day that Marty McFly fortuitously arrived in the future. Of course, this was just one day before the Supreme Court upheld the Affordable Care Act healthcare reform, and the Individual Mandate, so Marty could not have known. If Marty had arrived on June 28th, It would have been a VERY different movie! But, alas, while we continue to wait for our Hoverboards, and our self-tying sneakers, we can sleep well knowing that our fair nation has finally catapulted itself into the 20th Century . . . albeit behind almost every other industrialized nation in the world.

Yes my Surly Socialists, Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening! And as we find ourselves stranded in our current timeline, without the benefit of the Flux Capacitor, we invite you to gather together under the comforting shade of low expectations and gaze forward, resolute, to toast the promise of a better future for us all. Fulfilling their solemn covenant, the Haberdashery's High Priests will be on hand to fulfill your mixological destinies. Be not afraid of their strange instruments of alchemy; steel shakers, long agitators, strange fruits and elixirs both bitter and sweet, vessels of glass and stone, filled with the whims of the fates . . . 'tis a dark science that yields light and clarity in a world often devoid of either. We will celebrate your arrival, cherish your tenure and warmly await your return.

Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to stop by for a quickie en route to your final temporal destiny . . . or to linger indefinitely.

Yours,
Los Cabañero

P.S. This week's Haberdashery Flashback takes us back to June 11th, 2003; Come or be Scorned!
