Western Love, Continued.

* The West Is Still Back *

* This week started out quite fun with a show de-installation in williamsburg with my zing cohorts followed by a delicious luncharoo
*After, I had many trips to the post office in which i built bicep stamina and got even friendlier with our postal service employees, although I believe we may have worn out our welcome at this particular location as they threw tude at my fellow cohort
*Last week I had the joy of manning the gallery for the end of my editor's show, met an artist in the building, but truthfully that was the only soul i encountered. the world doesnt know what theyre missin yalls. i got some exercise by running around the gallery to keep my boot toasty! the gallery is a great space though, maybe one day....maybe one day.

*Last nite i watched 'Badlands' with Martin Sheen and Sissy Spacek, a 70's classic. This is kind of post Bonnie & Clyde but pre Natural Born Killers lovers on the run movie, but as opposed to the glorification in the former and latter, this is more quiet. You definetly get the eerie sense that these people dont care who they are killing, let alone that theyre killing at all. The real star however is the American landscape. It was like landscape porn. In the movie they just drive endlessly across the Great Plains, not even on a road. I imagine its kind of romantic and liberating not driving on roads.....just blazin across the landscape is a dream only our original explorers were able to indulge, sigh...

*Side Bar: Did anyone else play Oregon Trail on Apple II E's? I always died of dysentery. Boo.
