I can't see! Oh, I see -- ICEEEY windshield! The Wild Turkey family were making their rounds on South Woodland. I've seen plenty of Deer tracks, but no Deer.

In The Community: The Hockaday Museum of Art's Autumn Salon is finally UP -- with 116 pieces on display. We also have Crown of the Continent and Ace of Diamonds. The Climate Change Series is done at the college, but there are other public events on the schedule.

Media Watch: Trash A Go Go -- The cast is banged up or otherwise medically-impaired. Julianne Hough went to the hospital, and Edyta will take a turn with her partner. Front-running Brooke is injured, Lucci is injured, and Cloris is still 82 -- her comedy wasn't enough to keep her on the show. I liked the Pussycat Dolls and Missy Elliot, but the funnier they are, the better they are -- this one could have been funnier.
Barack Obama's half-hour prime-time infomercial Wednesday night basically stated that it is time to take action on the problems we all know our country has. He was his usual calm self, but I projected some anger in his voice when he spoke of his mother's final days, and how she had to deal with insurance companies who tried to avoid paying for her treatments as she suffered from cancer. I know I'm angry about that kind of thing.

A digital painting made from an online video of The Pussycat Dolls' latest appearance on Trash A Go Go. Their current lineup is: Excellent lead singer Nicole Scherzinger, Jessica Sutta, Kimberly Wyatt, Melody Thornton, and Ashley Roberts. Their offstage choreographer/leader is Robin Antin, and the whole gang has talent. This act is definitely Pop Art, with High Art in service to Low Art.
