"If trashpo has taught me anything its that every windblown street corner and cyclone fence is a veritable Dick Blick of free art materials."

Ha! Dean "the shy one"?

(This is midnight in Paris...across from Notre Dame, on-the-quay...

without the arrows?)

Comment by prettylily on February 28, 2012 at 11:20am

Those arrows would fetch a bundle on Ebay.  It does kind of look like you, Dean.  Is it really???  And those bells on the shoes.  I remember.

Comment by Dean aka Artist in Seine on February 28, 2012 at 10:59am

Remember Vizma, it's not kind of website!  I like your Zombie Kat blog. 

Yes, that is me, and the only thing that it tells me is that my parents must have been as bananas as I am.  Actually, I was always the shy one.

Aw, what a cutie!! I just feel like squeeeeeeezing those little cheeks!!! Oh, I mean the baby photo, not Dean's profile photo...

Comment by Nancy Bell Scott on February 28, 2012 at 5:01am

If that's really you in the photo, Dean, you're cute as the dickens. Hell, he's cute no matter who he is.

Erni, you are on the wrong boat to China.  One time we were lost in "the" big city, and my Dad drove into a White Castle because there was the big sign outside that said; 6 bugers for 19 cents.  He thought that was a bargain so we stopped.  They served square bugers the size of your thumb, and they were not good tasting.  We then went to an A&W where a girl comes to your car on roller skates.  That was cool, and the girl on the skates was my first love, but I never spoke to her.  I was very young at the time, but I did have my own LOVE arrows.

Oh, Erni...I would have loved to have gone to a "white castle" in Bavaria or the like...

but in Chicago, it looked more like this:

Comment by DKeys on February 27, 2012 at 1:38pm

32 items?? can't wait to see.  And yes Dean, you really can make reservations to take your beloved to White Castle for V-day. They do a formal sit down dinner but no heart shaped burgers that I know of. I hope the only people who really do it are teenagers with their first love after Mom and Dad drop them off.

Comment by Dean aka Artist in Seine on February 27, 2012 at 12:41pm

No, no, let's be clear.  Yes, I bet that White Castle puts a sign out, but it's to be funny right?  People don't actually go / make reservations for White Castle for Valenetine's day?  Unless they have heart shaped burgers ... great idea, contact their marketing department quick!

Big NEWS in Paris today: I received my own D-Kit, and I must say, it is brilliant.  However, it's going to take me awhile to scan & comment on the 32 items enclosed, of which one of them made me smile all day.  But you'll never guess which one. (N° 230)  So thank you to the person who sent it to me (you know who you are), and you will be duely rewarded in due time.

They really do this Dean. It would also make a good Mr. Bean skit. Rowan Atkinson is pure genius
