It didn't make “Most Amusing
Present,” but it's still darned amusing—my dad got me “The
Scream.”
Okay, he didn't give me the actual painting, nor a reprint, but an
inflatable Scream:
Fifty inches of impressionistic inflatable ink. And given where the
valve was, his expression makes quite a bit of sense (same for Otto
the autopilot now that I think about it).
So now he lives at The Ft. Lauderdale Office of The Corporation where we
could definitely use some non-corporate propaganda art to liven
up the space.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
It is assumed that every brand name, slogan, corporate name,
