Unknown said...: Nope, I think it is amusing. They look like real people to me...I don't know if there is a murderer among them. Maybe I need to watch more television. ;-); October 25, 2009 at 9:48 PM
Kathy Meeh said...: The art tradition for murals and tapestries is to add an aberrant image to an otherwise consistent visual display. Jeff's hippie post follows that tradition.

Amusing labeling can be seen as locally as this blog with the skinny pig. Isolated graffiti, and gestures occur in many current forms.

Some of you will remember the classic example of Alfred Hitchcock interjecting himself by appearance (usually a walk by) into each of the movies he directed.

Lois, you'll find Richard Ramirez in the orange jump suit, below the hippie with the nose ring. Why was Ramirez popped-in with the hippies? Whether conscious or not, try the Pacifica financial analogy: he's a serial dollar killer.

More wisdom by Dan Unerhill on RIP: Don't like poverty, don't fix it, move out-of-town. Similar sentiments were expressed by Mayor Lancelle following City Council's proposed Measure D tax defeat. That's the regressive culture you moved into Dee-Rob.; October 25, 2009 at 11:24 PM

Unknown said...: OK. I like the hippie pictures, though. Ramirez I can do without looking at.; October 26, 2009 at 8:59 AM
Lance said...: Looks like a PSD picnic!; October 26, 2009 at 9:38 AM
Johnny Drama said...: Wow, I didn't think it would ever be possible, but by posting a list of the Night Stalker's victims, Jeff has acually caused me to agree with Todd Bray -- at least in his choice of nicknames for you, if not on anything else at all.; October 27, 2009 at 7:40 AM
Unknown said...: Todd has had a long-running feud with anything that Jeff does ever since Jeff helped Todd resign from the Planning Commission...giving him nicknames is always helpful...for Todd, I guess.; October 27, 2009 at 8:56 AM
Jeffrey W Simons said...: actually now that I think about it, Todd Bray threatened to sue me for libel on the Pacifica-L email group and didn't seem to like that I challenged him to do so. That was a few months before his resignation from the Planning Commission.; October 28, 2009 at 7:39 AM
