dream.20070320: a fair trial

by Rob Friesel

A college law class in a high school classroom. The teacher has Lawerence Lessig’s face but Warren Ellis’ beard; and Angela Lansbury’s body. I come in late and set up on top of a desk as far back in the classroom as I can. I need to change my shirt and spend the better part […]
