Invasion of the Gems

The Mobile Gem Sweater Museum is here. They're now parked in front of JDK at 47 Maple Street. Leslie's mother — who has so far sewn her 8 pairs of gold pants — just stopped by the 7D office to say that they had to buy over 200 gallons of gas to get here (that's a shitload of money post-hurricane), and they broke down twice and had to be towed. They arrived yesterday, just a few minutes before midnight.

Just so everybody knows, the Art Hop is not paying these folks to be here. So buy some of Leslie's stuff. She's got t-shirts and CDs, which I highly recommend. She even wrote a song about that 1985 Sarah Jessica Parker/Helen Hunt classic, Girls Just Want to Have Fun. It's called Tune in Tokyo. If you've seen the movie, you may remember the joke...
