Bye Polke



Sigmar Polke was a great artist and one of art's greatest smart-asses. This picture seems to encapsulate what he was all about. I will miss him.

James Dean Driving Safety



The only thing they forgot to mention here too is don't become an alcoholic and kill your wife, then yourself, as Gig Young, seen here with Jimmy Dean, did.

Factoid: Gig Young played one of the gay henchmen in Peckinpah's "Bring Me The Head of Alfredo Garcia"

truthiness

"In battling evil, excess is good; for he who is moderate in announcing the truth is presenting half-truth. He conceals the other half out of fear of the people's wrath."

--Kahlil Gibran, 'Narcotics and Dissecting Knives,' Thoughts and Meditations, 1960
Lebanese artist & poet in US (1883 - 1931)
