Interesting observations about the current slew of Superhero flicks. The title artwork I think is from "Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?" (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superman:_Whatever_Happened_to_the_Man_of_Tomorrow%3F).

Ken's painting "Blackland Prairie"  just won the Grand Prize in the Fairview City Hall Art contest!  The prize was $500, a medal, and it will hang in their lobby for a year.  The judge said she pulled it out and thought it was a photograph, then she thought,  "Here's the winner".

Very pleased to see this done by Zen pencils, and that it's the correct and attributed version.

Very pleased to see this done by Zen pencils, and that it's the correct and attributed version.

Some years ago (last century) I came across the "other version", the incorrect one. You can always tell that one because instead of the line "Be Cheerful" it says ""Be Careful" and has other errors as well. Anyway, the incorrect version was printed as a poster in a new age magazine, and I knew it was wrong as I had just read the original in a collection of poetry . What upset me the most was that the incorrect version never attributes Ehrmann as the author.

I sent the poster and details of the magazine to the publisher of that collection. They eventually passed it on to Ehrmann's estate and later, unexpectedly, I received in the mail a printed book of the poem with a thanks from his widow!

Not all of Prince's songs were upbeat. This one seems inspired by Bob Dylan and makes good use of words as symbols.

I went to Graphic Action to pick up my copy of Hicksville, which is a graphic novel about graphic novels. I had previously read a library copy but after requesting it again it had apparently "gone missing". That is, under the new rules (where comics and graphic novels returned get put on the shelf at the branch returned to) they didn't know where it was.

So, I decided to buy a copy to keep. I picked it up, had a long discussion with the guy there about comics made into TV shows, and went to the City library to check out non-fiction books on railways. And then when I checked out the graphic novels section, there was the library copy of Hicksville, on the shelf! Oh well, it's not as if I just bought a new washing machine and saw the same model for $100 less. And I will read my copy again, every so often.
