Lenora Claire: I've always said art much like breasts should be in your face. Since this is a show about art and breasts I started thinking of taking something as classic as a typical nativity scene and giving it a pop twist. I really feel that is the Virgin Mary found herself knocked up today that she would have to go work at Hooters to support the baby Jesus. Like everything I do there are high brow and low brow elements. It's all about subversion.

Murst!

Of the Hitchcock movies I've seen, The Birds is the only one that really creeped me out.

You thought The Birds was creepier than Psycho? (Aside: after The Birds came out people would come up to my Dad thinking he was Rod Taylor and ask for his autograph.)
I thought Edgar might appreciate the crow photos.

BTW, what's the Walk Score of your neighborhood? Mine is 78.

I like the black dress & the raven. Mmm hmm, yes I do!

The birds trying to peck into the house creeped me out on a more visceral level than anything in Psycho.

My walk score is 32, but if I use the center of town a mile and a half away as my address it raises to 92.

@Ogg,
For most people, I don't think 1.5 miles is a reasonable distance to walk with an arm full of groceries.

@Edgar,
Hmm, your Walk Score is almost as low as Rob Dawg's.

It'll probably go up when I move. I don't use many of those things they count anyway. I ride my bike instead of walk to the store. I guarantee you my fuel consumption is lower than Dawg's is. Heck, my carbon footprint is probably smaller than Ed Begley's.

@Edgar,
I'm not questioning your carbon footprint, but you must work a hell of a lot harder than most to keep it low.

@Wagga,
It may have had something to do with living in L.A., but my Dad was *regularly* assumed to be Rod Taylor. When he was in a good mood he'd play it up and have fun with the assumption.

That's a funny statement in a way, since I don't work at all. But I know that wasn't what you meant. I conserve mostly to save money, but some stuff I do for the good of the planet too.

How do you get by without working?

I pick up cans on the side of the road, that and the trust fund. ;-)
