    the way I hope yesterday didn't start for you

    DateSaturday, April 3, 2010 at 10:46PM

    A short post to tide you (and me) over on this long weekend... the traffic jam from Godard's Weekend. The fights, the smashed cars, the couple playing the board game in the road, the monkey and llama, the children playing, and everyone ignoring the bodies of the victims of the crash that has caused all this; the vision and distance of this remind me of Brueghel or Bosch.

    Happy happy! See you Monday. (Or Tuesday, you government and bank drones.)
