About me: Googie signage is in every All American City. Look for us while you're driving down the blue highways of the USA. We're usually found in front of motels, restaurants, bowling alleys, lounges, and older shopping centers. We are an endangered species, so keep a camera in the car. Next time you drive by, we might be history!
Who I'd like to meet: ~*~*~*~*~*~YOU!~*~*~*~*~*~

The Roadhead Journal Online Magazine of Art, Anarchy, Literature, and Pop Culture Dumpster Diving
This compendium of illiterations, art, literature and journalism is a compost pile of fermenting illiterati to toss onto the garden of your imagination to further fertilize it to yield a bounty of ideas and free thought. It breaks rules as it does not recognize good grammer in some instances as the final authority over random thought. The words and art herein hopefully fall from an imaginary pinata as delightful and delicious candy
