The challenges facing local news organizations are very real. That's why reader support matters more than ever. If you believe independent journalism matters, make a contribution today and help us reach our summer fundraising goal of $10,000 by August 9.
A minute ago, still buzzing from the twin highs of payday and a certain psychotropic substance, I had the sudden realization: Green is a very good color. For a second, it seemed like a weird kind of intellectual smoke that meant precisely nothing, just floating past. Then, the rest came: Green is the color of money and green is the color of ganja. And all seemed right with the world until James Brown popped out of a fifty-dollar bill, screaming: “Go unto Mary Jane Mondays, son!!!”
I almost pooped my pants. But turns out, old J.B. was right. Yes,
Mary Jane Mondays is a night for those who know the green in all its
shades. And yes, it’s also a night for those who enjoy free chicken
wings till midnight. But moreover — with DJs Kenny Dynamite and Fiyah
Vibez dropping hot wax of the funk, classic hip-hop, reggae, and other
grooveable varieties — it’s a night that is, as the Godfather himself
would scream: “A taste of the real Soul … Ya dig!!!!”
