You will notice that it lacks definiteness; that it lacks purpose; that it lacks coherence; that it lacks a subject to talk about; that it is loose and wabbly; that it wanders around; that it loses itself early and does not find itself any more. --Mark Twain

Via Edge of the West, we are reminded that today is the anniversary of Lee Harvey Oswald's last dance, memorialized in this famous photograph:
At least, that's what I learned in school. Kathy tells it differently, but she doesn't explain why people claim Oswald and Ruby were acting in concert. This photograph does.
H/T PBS, and George Mahlberg, creator of Oswald/Ruby as a Rock Band, 1996. Adapted from original photograph by Bob Jackson, 1963.

Let's not overlook the Dead Kennedys logo on the wall behind them. I believe this was created for the liner notes of one of their albums.

I maintain that this photo is a FAKE! Ruby is shown playing a Telecaster, but everyone knows he was a Strat man...
