The Courage of Courrèges

André Courrèges (March 9, 1923 — January 7, 2016)

Fashion architect, futurist, iconoclast, Courrèges was the astronaut of the 60s mod.

Courrèges is gone now, and—sadly—his view of futuristic positivism has long been dispatched. His legacy will be treasured...and maybe someday we will be ready to go back to his future.

Give me a hand?

Sorry about my absence recently, but I have been without the use of my right hand after surgery to correct a tendon issue.

The hand is healing nicely and I’ll be back to typing like a pro soon. (I tried the dictation feature, and found out I have some pretty squirrelly pronunciation. I say: prepare items to ship, computer types provide him just to s***, etc.)

Can’t wait to make good use of my hands again!

We made it For the Manatees!

That is, we more than made it! Thank you so much...denisebrain has the BEST customers!

Save the Manatee Club, I know you’ll do great work with this.
