Occupy Pointillism
Occupy ought to give this cop an award for providing the movement's first original iconic image. In addition to Seurat's A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, so far he's been photo-shopped pepper spraying our Founding Fathers, Disney characters, Jesus in Da Vinci's The Last Supper, small aliens from Star Wars, & the Cowardly Lion at the door of the Emerald City. This man is becoming very famous/infamous & his just punishment is that he won't receive one cent in royalties. It helps that he's overweight & homely & resembles the racist southern cops of the Civil Rights era.

Saw three homes lit up with Christmas decorations, on the same short block. Christmas decorations are like fireflies; some years are better than others & nobody seems to know why.
