* I played football in high school and the coach forbade us from having long bangs that he said could interfere with our vision. Hey, it was the 70s and our coach wasn’t exactly a hippie. But I still wanted long hair, so I had to get what is now called a mullet. From 1977…
Man, I loved that shirt.

Unfortunately this was the last time Rich wore his favorite shirt . Because it was made of 100% polyester , it burst into flames when the heat from the photographer’s 1970’s flashbulbs went off for this shot.

Polyester tends to be very resilient, quick drying, resistant to biological damage such as mold and mildew, easy to wash and able to hold forms well. Although polyester is often maligned as a textile, it has many useful applications. It is, however, highly flammable, so care should be taken when wearing it - unless you are Rich Miller, who despite his lifestyle can wear highly flammable clothing AND have long bangs at he same time

Thousands of young campaign volunteers just like Richard Miller, Iroquois County, were devastated by Gov. Walker’s primary loss.

We had an old Buick wagon. On Fridays, after the old man made bank, my family of seven would load up and head into town for groceries, errands and just about all the craziness you can imagine from five kids off the farm encountering sidewalks.
The Buick had a fold-out jumpseat in the back. My older brothers would put me in that, then fold me down in it, and I’d suck on the exhaust pipe all the way to town.
Probably explains a lot.

“AT SEVENTEEN”
By Janis Ian, enhanced by VanillaMan
I learned the truth at seventeen
That votes were meant for beauty queens
And handsome guys with clear skinned smiles
Who got elected and then lied by miles
The candidates that I knew
Their campaign charades full in view
Monies spent in districts more plentful
At seventeen I learned the truth…
And those of us with honest faces
Lacking in the social graces
Hanging on our folk’s phone
Hanging with some friends thats stoned
Who called to say that “she likes me”
And murmured vague obscenities
It isn’t all it seems at seventeen…
As a brown eyed guy in floral duds
Who watched candidates roll in muds
Said: “Please the voters who you serve
They replied: “They got they they deserve”
The rich relationed hometown swell
Who married into a family of Mells
With a guarantee of political company
And jail until he’s elderly…
So remember those who win electios
Usually end up facing rejection
In debitures of quality and dubious integrity
Their corrupted eyes will gape at you
And claim surprise when payment due
Exceeds campaign accounts received
at seventeen…
To those of them who knew the pain
Of election losses and the shame
And those whose names were never called
As winners elected in the Fall
One day it will all go away
new candidates will arrive today
they’ll be taken down and harrassed for free
by snarky Capitolfax bloggers, like me…
It seventeen, I learned the truth…
