  • Something at LP

    There have been quite a few discussions, around here, about this exhibition; mainly revolving about the show’s art historical lineage. I beleive that will be the structure of the discussion at Locust Projects.  There are some pictures here and blurb here.
    Something features the works of Leyden Rodriguez-Casanova, Nortberto Rodriguez, Tom Scicluna and Frances Trombly.

  • Miami Heat – Champions

    DALLAS – JUNE 20: The Miami Heat celebrate winning the NBA Championship after their 95-92 win against the Dallas Mavericks in Game Six of the 2006 NBA Finals June 20, 2006 at American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas.

    I don’t know where this guy was, but his crazy car-horn-blowing schenanigans kept me from going to sleeping comfortably.

  • Something worth celebrating

    Juneteenth. A portmanteau of the words June and nineteenth.

    it was on June 19th (1965) that the Union soldiers, led by Major General Gordon Granger, landed at Galveston, Texas with news that the war had ended and that the enslaved were now free. Note that this was two and a half years after President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation – which had become official January 1, 1863. The Emancipation Proclamation had little impact on the Texans due to the minimal number of Union troops to enforce the new Executive order. However, with the surrender of General Lee in April of 1865, and the arrival of General Granger’s regiment, the forces were finally strong enough to influence and overcome the resistance. Quoted from.
