We’ll start light then end angry. Here we go:
Flight of the Dan
I’ve started a series that inserts me into the posters of movies I watched from ages five to fifteen. I call the series Flight of the Dan. The above cropped image is from the title piece. You can follow the series on my facebook page. Eventually the series will end up in the Art Institute of Chicago.
Do Dogs Understand Language or Tone/Gesture?
This is a legitimate question. I was walking to the L when I saw someone yelling at their dog in Spanish. I thought “Hmm, so does the dog only respond to Spanish words? Would it respond to “Sit” or just “Siéntese.” Do you have to match the language or just the tone? Seriously, I want an answer. I’ve decided this will be my child’s first science fair experiment.
Mugged and Kidnapped
Last night one of Trish’s co-workers was held up at gunpoint, forced into a car, and taken to an ATM where she withdrew $200. I guess the story ends well because the muggers left her on a street corner instead of raping and killing her. How pathetic is it that THAT is the happy ending?!
