Is she going to go out in style?

Just like Tubbs, the woman he's involved with is just as white as he's black.

Like Miss Jamaica from 1976.

He's on his yacht now.

Like a white suited, stubbly faced Dennis Wilson.

Staring out across the Caribbean sea...

Another cover. Wonder if the original had the incredibly 'period' state of the art production?

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Tue Oct 12, 2021 7:40 pm

It is over.
