Banksy: Not All Art Is Framed

15 Mar

March 15, 2018

I spotted this on a wall of an abandoned gas station in Midwood, Brooklyn a few days ago. I was lucky enough to be there before anyone messed it up with tags and other graffiti. The slash is merely a shadow.


I’m sure there’s a statement behind the artwork but I’m simply impressed. 

UPDATE: According to the NY Post, this is by famed artist Banksy! And I was one of the first to see it. Check out their picture, which is, as I predicted, marred by tags and random spray. https://nypost.com/2018/03/17/more-banksy-art-spotted-in-nyc/ 

Once again, I scooped the mainstream media!

American Chopper – All New! – Senior’s Legal Issues 3/2/2018

1 Mar

March 2, 2018

Remember back when I used to blog about American Chopper? Every week, every episode, every mention in the news. So I can say with some small amount of knowledge that Paul Teutul Sr. is neither a great businessman nor a good father. Yes, he built his steel company into a motorcycle brand, and yes, he’s attained some celebrity, but I’d argue that his business success had a lot to do with the people around him (and the cable networks that propped him up) and no so much for his business sense, and his celebrity is really just notoriety. But I’ll just let these two article speak for themselves.

Enjoy!

 

There’s no reason for me to run this other than it’s funny.
