two years ago , there was laurie at the brand new and moneen show , not wearing some type of eccentric printed punk tee , just a simple striped shirt in splotched jeans in some type of sensible shoes , me wearing an old 1994 orioles shirt with ripkens name on the back , vintage yes , original yes found on ebay , standing near one another in a wait for the portable toilet -- me saying casually -- whats the worst hot topic item youve seen so far ?
