Landmine's worst nightmare :)
In researching some things for this chapter I read a lot bout the late 50's and early 60's when all over the USA there were black and white only water fountains, restaurants etc... people kind of think automatically that this was such a long time ago but... suppose, for example, a guy was working at a restaurant in Louisville back in, say, 1960 and he was in charge there, he was 24 years old, working days running the restaurant and he regularly stopped blacks from eating there, told them to get out, most likely in cruel fashion... he grew up in a day when a black kid could get lynched for whistling at a white woman (Emmit Till, for example)... it's crazy to think that the guy today is still here most likely... and he is only 70 years old. He's still walking around every day... I wonder what guys like that, guys that told blacks to eat out in the alley, think of the country today... with Oprah being a megastar... Barack Obama a presidential candidate... Terrel Owens... Farrakhan... Dave Chapelle... Ice T and CoCo...rap music, hip hop (NWA, Public Enemy) videos... ... or better yet, Eminem... man, he must think he's in the twilight zone!! I picture him at a supermarket checkout line and a young black girl, sixteen years old with grandparents he might have kicked out of the restaurant back in the day, who is chewing gum and talking on her cell phone is the clerk... he's in a hurry and wants to get out there to go somewhere but she's on the phone, rolling her eyes, laughing and/or sucking her teeth, telling him to "hold up a minute." If there is a such thing as "karma" (what goes around comes around) it is awesome sometimes, no?

Think how us homophobes feel. I'm only 32 and I can remember when it was considered obscene and perverted to bum a man. Now our fag ass government is allowing these deviants to adopt children, even forcing the Catholic Church to hand over their orphaned children to fags.
Sickens me, absolutely fucking sickens me >:mad

You know how the Mona Lisa has that enigmatic look on her face? And the missing eye brows and and all those other wonderful qualities? Well, I get those same artistic sensations from this wonderful piece of photography. It hints at the mysteries of our lives without ever giving away the true meaning and so we continue to look at the picture looking for a clue or glimpse as to what it all means...
Quite a charming piece of work!

Do I really have to climb off of my pedestal and tell it like the lackadaisical man does?? :(
Well, its probably just a silly bird and it looks as though the O means "Oh" minus the consonent and RLY means "Really" minus the vowels and with some really terrible spelling....
As with any artistic piece my interpretation may be somewhat off...
Re: Landmine's worst nightmare :)
Hey, I’m impressed. Nice image.
It touches, briefly, on the more subtle sides of mans expression in the 21st century.
The phrases O and RLY have such a powerful impact on modern society that we find ourselves compelled to wonder at the complexities of life.
Great find!
