The colors work very well for me.<BR/><BR/>One thing nobody's mentioned, maybe because it's obvious, is that it evokes the time period well with very minimal elements. It's almost as if there is an afro from the '70s in the poster, even though there is not an afro from any time period in it.Spencer Owenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10630838257809579839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189412619687815131.post-80875097059633093122007-02-15T00:37:00.000-05:002007-02-15T00:37:00.000-05:00blech.blech.mlucashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03105822851312475176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189412619687815131.post-62050433475342366642007-02-14T17:06:00.000-05:002007-02-14T17:06:00.000-05:00When I was taking lifeguard training, they showed ...When I was taking lifeguard training, they showed us this video called "Myths, Lies, and other untruths about the swimming pool," where an african-american youth was on a diving board and the supervisor came up to the lifeguard and said, "watch out for Reggie, black people have much denser bones than white people. So he's not a very good swimmer."

I believe his denouement is really a cry for help from a hopelessly lost and deconstructed post-post-industrialist. It is so sad to see a lexicon so filled with syntactic hatred and dismissal of the discursivity of the symbolic diaspora.
