Prop, Not Art (Revolutionary Edition)

By on 8.4.06 @ 2:47PM

I just arrived in Chicago for the reformation of Students for a Democratic Society. One of the questions they asked on the registration form was whether or not I was willing to be arrested. I’m not (see here and here), but I left it blank anyhow to keep from getting flagged “SISSY.” Should be an interesting weekend.

Meanwhile, Philadelphia’s “Art Commission” has determined the Rocky Balboa statue Stallone donated to them is a prop, not art. Tell that to Clubber Lang, suckers!
