Boggs Which Bill is the Copy? (or How Much Does An Idea Weigh? One Pound?)J.S.G. Boggs is considered a fine artist by some and a counterfeiter by others. Through his work he tries to call into question what we consider "real" and what we consider a "copy". He makes life size drawings of money using high grade currency paper and India ink. He then makes purchases with his "money", always informing the vender that his bills are not legal tender, but exchanging them based on their "face value". He typically waits 24 hours to allow the person who accepted the bill to "contemplate what had just transpired and the dual nature of money". Then Boggs sells the information regarding the whereabouts of the bill to the highest bidder who then gets to purchase the phony from the original recipient. His work usually ends up hanging in a museum or gallery, framed, along with all the accompanying "residue" from the transactions: articles such as receipts, ticket stubs, packaging, etc. <br /><br />Although he is always certain never to pass his bills of as legal tender, Boggs' artwork has gotten him into trouble in a number of countries. The Bank of England prosecuted him for counterfeiting British currency. At his trial he held up an "authentic" British one pound note and called it a copy (because it is really a print made from an original plate), then referred to his "counterfeit" as an original (because it was hand made by him). <br /><br />Kevin Kelly, founding executive editor of Wired magazine, "When copies are superabundant, they become worthless, while things which can’t be copied become scarce and valuable. What counts in the end are “uncopyable values,” qualities which are “better than free.”<br />While it isn't practical for artists to go to the lengths Boggs does in order to be paid for their work, Bogg's sets an example of how in our digital reality creators must seek reward for their "uncopyable values" rather than their easily copyable work. It's not as straightforward as the pre-digital concept of protecting work from unauthorized copying, but in the digital reality it's necessary to move beyond that mode of thinking into an unexplored world of copyright 2.0.Fogelsville4http://www.blogger.com/profile/10161914832520698104noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833186335427964598.post-69423161992722797112008-05-03T02:27:00.002-05:002008-05-03T02:37:30.720-05:00Prep or pre-op?In preparation for the launch of karmiclandfill.com I did a bit of research.

The build up to the Derby is FUN FUN FUN! Poker is all the rage now but I think the biggest fun is betting on the ponies. We pour over stats and reviews of the horses and pretend to comprehend and then throw some money down on a cleverly named horse, or a jockey or trainer whose name we vaguely remember from last year. <br /><br />SOOO . . . Who do we like this year? My dad is hooked on the favorite, "Big Brown", who drew the far outside post. He's named after UPS (what can brown do for you?) I think he'll be remembered for being full of "big brown", if you'll pardon the euphimism. Hillary likes the only filly, "Eight Belles", so does my mom. Aunt Carol likes "Colonel John" probably because of his military background. Miki's for "Adriano", to be ridden by Edgar Prado. The longshot, "Big Truck" gets Greg(g)'s bet. Jimmy's playing a 1,10 with a 20 exacta. The #14 horse is Monba. Whose got heart? I like #8 Visionaire. I'll take him to win it and I'll play an exacta with Visionaire, Cool Coal Man, and Monba.<br /><br /><br /><br />I'll take one bulldog over a stable and a half of top thoroughbreds any day.Fogelsville4http://www.blogger.com/profile/10161914832520698104noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833186335427964598.post-48644362193323669362008-05-01T23:16:00.003-05:002008-05-02T06:39:23.274-05:00Yes he can?. . .if they let him<br /><br />Right now the most vicious attacks being levied against Obama are not coming from the right or from the Clinton campaign but from the African American preacher Jerimia Wright. White, middle class voters in PA and Ohio were key to Hillary's victories. Seems like Ohio, PA and Wright see only the things they hate and fear personified in Barack Obama. For the 2 rust belt states he's Obama the powerful black man and for Wright he's Obama the powerful white man. Obama is both. Obama is both black and white and he is becoming confounded by the fact that he appeals to the best in all of us yet is bringing out the worst in a very few of us.Fogelsville4http://www.blogger.com/profile/10161914832520698104noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833186335427964598.post-82121036807091460712008-03-08T03:07:00.002-05:002008-03-08T03:15:55.449-05:00St. Pat'sSo creeping in on St. Pat's.

Usually I like Wooster brushes, Allpro's are ok and everything else is prety much garbage. This Z¡bra however has REALLY smooth bristles and loads like crazy. I can't seem to get a decent grip on the thing though and I just found out why. http://www.enjoyzibra.com/ Apparently this company was founded by women, to design products for women. Maybe I'm overthinking things but whenever I think about voting for Hillary I get the same feeling as when I pick up a Z¡bra brush. It works well and performs like I want it too but just feels funny.

I went out for a wedding last week and stayed at the Monte Carlo. I still have no idea what to think of Vegas. I was extremely let down in some ways and equally overwhelmed in others. Two things are for sure, 1. I'll go back, 2. I'll bring my stuffed Tigger with me (and more money).<br /><br />So Elvis was a hero to most, but that's beside the point. Elvis is not impersonated by Elvis impersonators. Elvis impersonators impersonate other Elvis impersonators. It's like when you make a copy of a copy of a copy. Eventually the subtle degradation adds up and corrupts the image. Elvis was probably the greatest Elvis impersonator of all time. He kept up the facade for quite a while before the stress finally got to him.<br /><br />If Elvis impersonators impersonate Elvis impersonators and Elvis really only ever impersonated himself, then did "Elvis" ever really exist? Maybe "Elvis" only really ever existed in the mind of a 10 year old Elvis. Maybe the best way to impersonate Elvis is to impersonate a 10 year old Elvis imagining he's really Elvis. Bill Clinton is the greatest living Elvis impersonator. Elvis is the all time greatest Elvis impersonator.<br /><br />Chips impersonate money. Dealers impersonate your friends. The pit bosses do a great job of impersonating your 4th grade English teacher during an exam and look very silly doing it. Casino waitresses impersonate real waitresses. Casinos impersonate Disney World (badly) and Disney World does a great job of impersonating a casino. (the following are hotel/casinos in vegas) "The Venetian" impersonates a Target store in Venice. "Paris" impersonates Disney's "Lady and the Tramp" movie-on acid. "New York, New York" impersonates a big headache, and does so quite well I might add. The lobby of the "Bellagio" impersonates Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory. I met a little person there and almost asked him to sing the Umpa Lumpa song. Sidewalks in Vegas impersonate real sidewalks, however they're neither on the "side" nor are they suitable for walking. The ceilings in most of the new buildings impersonate the sky quite well. <br /><br />The only real thing in all of Vegas is McDonalds. The McDonalds in Vegas is impersonated by every other McDonalds in the world.Fogelsville4http://www.blogger.com/profile/10161914832520698104noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833186335427964598.post-71874339296868692922007-10-08T01:21:00.000-05:002007-10-08T10:17:23.440-05:00what did you say?Here's to busting eardrums.

He was just doing a little research I guess.<br /><br /><br />Last June, Larry Craig, the Senator from Idaho, was arrested for “lewd conduct” in a men’s room at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. He pleaded guilty on August 8, paid $500, got out of the 10-day jail sentence, and was given a year of probation. The lewd conduct he was accused of consisted of a series of hand and foot jestures made under the partition of a bathroom stall in an airport. To call this type of encounter "gay" is insulting to homosexuals. Normal men and women, gay or straight, don't meet partners through a game of toilet seat footsie. <br /><br />Craig, when addressing the issue at a press conference repeatedly denied being gay.Like most fellow Republicans, Craig has opposed gay rights, voting in favor of a federal ban on same-sex marriage several times in recent years<br /><br />Asked this morning at the White House whether the senator, Larry Craig, should resign, President George W.

(or Neon Deion, Freon Peyon)All excerpts are taken from an espn.com editorial written by Deion Sanders.<br /><br />Sanders, "What a dog means to Vick might be a lot different than what he means to you or I. Hold on, don’t start shaking your head just yet. Listen to me."<br /><br />I can't listen to you, I'm reading words you wrote. You mean to say, "read on". You moron.<br /><br />Sanders, "You can still choose to condemn him, but I’m trying to take you inside his mind so you can understand where he might be coming from."<br /><br />Been inside his mind, have you? Placed any bets on the sick blood sport while you were in there? <br /><br />Sanders "I have three highly-trained protection German shepherds, just in case someone wants to rob my family. Believe me, you don’t want to deal with them. With one German command, our dog Yascho turns into Cujo. And for the record, I live around the corner from the police station, so it won’t take them long to show up and save you from the dogs."<br /><br />What's your "German command" Sieg Heil!, perhaps? You piece of shit. With your nazi command your dog is a gun too huh? You fuck.<br /><br />Sanders "The allure is the intensity and the challenge of a dog fighting to the death. It’s like ultimate fighting, but the dog doesn’t tap out when he knows he can’t win. It reminds me of when I wore a lot of jewelry back in the day because I always wanted to have the biggest chain or the biggest, baddest car. It gives you status."<br /><br />I'm not speechless often, but I have no response to that one.<br /><br />Sanders, "Can I pause for a moment to ask you a question?"<br /><br />You can do whatever you want, it's your article. You idiot. After you wrote that idiotic line, did you sit in front of your computer waiting for an answer? <br /><br />Sanders ":We’re attacking this dogfighting ring the same way a teenager attacks his MySpace page after school (by the way parents, make sure you monitor your kids)."<br /><br />Teenagers have pit bulls attacking their computers!!!???!!! WTF? "by the way parents, make sure you monitor your kids" Was that some half assed public service announcement? Was that pseudo wisdom, or are you really dumber than you look?<br /><br />Sanders "The reason this is turning into a three-ring circus is that baseball is boring, basketball is months away, football is around the corner and we in the media don’t have a thing interesting to write about."<br /><br />Right. The attention given has nothing to do with the sadistic nature of his actions. It's all baseball's fault. Blame the NBA while you're at it for not scheduling the games around Vick's dog fights.<br /><br />Sanders, "How will this end up? I have no idea. All I know is Falcons fans better pray because Vick’s backup is Joey Harrington. Enough said."<br /><br />So I guess in his eyes justice is irrelevant. What's paramount is the football team's success. I'll remember that.Fogelsville4http://www.blogger.com/profile/10161914832520698104noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833186335427964598.post-5848560262794647332007-08-23T22:49:00.000-05:002007-08-23T23:35:40.418-05:00Input from the peanut gallery. (or, how to think like an idiot without even thinking.)Atlanta NAACP Chapter President R.L. White, "I don't support dog fighting and I consider it as bad as hunting." <br /><br />Really White? They're pretty much the same thing then? So would you rather we hunt you down, or have you climb in a pit and fight a dog? We can bet on either one so it doesn't matter to us.<br /><br />Says Mr. White . . . "We further ask the NFL, Falcons, and the sponsors not to permanently ban Mr. Vick from his ability to bring hours of enjoyment to fans all over this country." <br /><br />White, by "fans" do you mean fans of his dog fights? Do they really last hours? If you find him so bloody entertaining, why don't you set up a fighting pit in your living room, invite the monster and his "athletes" over to entertain your empty little head off? <br /><br />White said. "Michael Vick has received more negative press than if he had killed a human being."<br /><br />Hey! he didn't kill anyone! Hooray!!! R.L White disregards animal pain and suffering and how Vick's despicable acts degrade us all and it sickens me. R.L. White should be reincarnated as a marinated mailman who must deliver to a junkyard. I'm sure the dogs there will all be Michael Vick fans.Fogelsville4http://www.blogger.com/profile/10161914832520698104noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833186335427964598.post-59921950173731813802007-08-08T23:32:00.000-05:002007-08-08T23:38:00.130-05:00bettin' on the . . .Fogelsville4http://www.blogger.com/profile/10161914832520698104noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833186335427964598.post-62169868815099405142007-08-08T23:22:00.000-05:002007-08-08T23:32:25.940-05:0014 hours then 18 years.Once I got in line and waited 14 hours to get tickets to see the Rolling Stones in Phiidelphia.

I see cellophane stretched out to the moon.)This sandwich will be built upside down.<br /><br /> Grab the top half of a split roll. Tear out a small handfull. In the hole you just created place cole slaw. Take a handfull of half cooked french fries and place them on top of the cole slaw/roll top. Don't be shy.<br />On that goes a moderate amount of mayo and French's mustard. (any other mustard is for pretentious fools). Then add lettuce and tomato. One hard shake of paprika. Then cylinder roll spiced ham, capicola and prosciutto and place onto sandwich. In leu of these ingredients use your best ham, salami and bologna (or your imagination). If you need to resort to these alternate ingredients, hum "This Land is Your Land" by Woody Guthrie. Trust me on that one . . .and this one. Finish by cupping your hands over some heat source, any will do. Once you've captured the heat, (avoid burning yourself of course) quickly dump the heat on top of the sandwich and immediately place the bottom of the bun on top of that. Set things up before hand so this can be done as quickly as possible. Place foil over sandwich and FLIP! Flick a small amount of water onto the sides of the sandwich and wrap with the foil. Allow to sit for 1-2 minutes and serve with a dill pickle and potato chips.<br /><br />-- <br />www.fogelsville4.com<br />Heavy like Mount Kailash.Fogelsville4http://www.blogger.com/profile/10161914832520698104noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833186335427964598.post-53645147348083450252007-07-31T22:46:00.000-05:002007-07-31T23:56:32.544-05:00The Sandwich we can only Hope for. (or What can You create on such short notice?)So here it is. A pure stroke of genius.<br /><br />Toasted multigrain bread<br />- pesto<br />- relish<br />- horseradish<br />- sweet peppers<br />- banana peppers<br />- chip sliced pickles<br />- bacon<br />- 1 slice of pepperjack cheese<br />- 5 slices of corned beef<br /><br />Assemble any way you feel like, because you really can't go wrong with this one. The proper construction, however, is to place the cheese in the center, surround it with corned beef, place the bacon on top of that and place the other ingredients around that. I have no idea where to sneak in the pesto. It's a trade secret.<br /><br />Brilliant.<br /><br />-- <br />www.fogelsville4.com<br />Heavy like Mount Kailash.Fogelsville4http://www.blogger.com/profile/10161914832520698104noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833186335427964598.post-55085899088825608112007-07-24T01:20:00.000-05:002007-07-24T01:44:48.613-05:00How should I say?<a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_JAF4ntgKiGU/RqWbo8_3ewI/AAAAAAAAAAM/YYxizykCL4U/s1600-h/angus-sinking.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_JAF4ntgKiGU/RqWbo8_3ewI/AAAAAAAAAAM/YYxizykCL4U/s320/angus-sinking.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5090646081683290882" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />He's lucky we weren't living in New Orleans.<br /><br />Let's Impeach the president for . . . .Fogelsville4http://www.blogger.com/profile/10161914832520698104noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833186335427964598.post-91574629191401953162007-07-24T00:15:00.000-05:002007-07-31T23:03:08.875-05:00A smile . . .& a recipe . . . (or The Existential Sandwich)relives a heart that grieves. remember what I've said. (mick jagger)<br /><br />BRILLIANT! Best sandwich ever! PBL&T! Peanutbutter, bacon, lettuce and tomato on white tOAST! (sorry caps lock left on) Masterfully put together by a friend/coworker of mine appropriately named Hope. BRILLIANT! <br /><br />These clowns at subway talk in their ads about sandwich artists. Like art makes sense, or is useful. Fuckers.<br /><br />(not the PBL&T) Recipe:<br />Take four slices of white bread, toss them in the trash. Now find a bakery that sells "army bread" , , ,good luck, I've yet to find one that still does in Scranton. Fish the four slices of white bread out of the trash and substitute them for the army bread. If you haven't already, turn on the Sabbath. or the Ramones. or the Durans. Melt a stick of butter and drizzled over the other 2 slices of bread. Dice lettuce, tomato, cilantro, and rosemary and spread over the melted butter. Before you take a much needed break, fill in the blanks with what you'd like to see in the sandwich. You'll be eating it, right?<br /><br />Now change bread.<br /><br />TOSS IT ALL OUT.<br /><br />This sandwich will at all costs be crunchy. The inner part of each slice will be lined with rippled potato chips. Toss the lettuce tomato etc. concoction in the trash. Take the remaining bread and whatever else is left and put it in your pocket. Pour milk in your pocket. Put a spoon in your back pocket. Cup your left hand and pour orange juice in it and head for the front door. Crumple newspaper and put it in your pocket. Walk away from your house with no money and don't come back until you've eaten and drunk everything in your possession, including the newspaper. Now wait 28 hours and drink only hose water you steal from your neighbors. Once you're home lay down in the front yard with your eyes closed until the neighbors call the cops. <br /><br />you know i'm right.<br /><br /><br /><br />(legal footnote, it's your front yard, you can do what ever you damn well please. notify your lawyer before making the sandwich though. pigs will be pigs, right?)<br /><br />-- <br />www.fogelsville4.com<br />Heavy like Mount Kailash.Fogelsville4http://www.blogger.com/profile/10161914832520698104noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833186335427964598.post-10885963037903401922007-06-27T07:58:00.000-05:002007-06-27T08:05:30.276-05:00Worst Haircut Ever pt. 2I'm not so upset now about the fat girl shouting at me yesterday while I was getting my hair cut. It was still rude and unprofessional but not something to get too worked up about. Still, it was the worst haircut ever. It doesn't look very good either. I don't blame Katelyn though. How can you be expected to do good work when someone's shouting at you about spitting in people's food?Fogelsville4http://www.blogger.com/profile/10161914832520698104noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833186335427964598.post-39824709298047778212007-06-26T13:31:00.000-05:002007-06-26T14:14:39.253-05:00Worst Haircut EverToday I had the worst haircut experience ever. Maybe the title is a misnomer, it remains to be seen whether it is the worst looking haircuts ever. I'm tyring to be more positive about things but this was just too much.<br /><br />The story actually begins last night while eating dinner in a restaurant. The family behind us had a baby who continuously screamed like she was having nails pounded into her skull. The parents completely ignored it. They ignored it, that is until the mother took the kid outside (twice) at which time the older kid would scream equally loud that she wanted to go outside like her mom and sister. These little bastards screamed and shrieked for 40 minutes. The couple next to us got up and left glaring at the family with the kids. Why we sat through it I have no idea but we did.<br /><br />Back to the haircut. After the shampoo I sat in the chair and started with the cut. 2 minutes in, this other stylist sat down in the chair adjacent to mine. She was really fat and sat slouched to one side of the chair with the fat folding over the arm of the chair. She had just ordered Chinese and found out shortly before someone else ordered from the same place. She started in about whether they'd send 2 delivery drivers or not and if they would get pissed if they had to do so. "I ordered mine after so and so's, I hope they don't get pissed and spit in my food. They do that you know. My sister worked an Mc Donalds and would do that all the time. We went to Friendy's and there was a couple complaining about something to the waitress. I saw the look on her face and she was definitely going to spit in their food." BLAH BLAH BLAH! On and on.<br /><br />She was so loud when she stressed a certain word for emphasis I would actually cringe a little bit. This went on the entire time I was getting my hair cut. I'm sitting there thinking I was going to snap and just walk out. I should've asked her to shut up but it was one of those things where you think at any moment she would stop and I wouldn't have to. It wouldn't have been rude if I had but I just felt weird about the whole thing so I just sat there and stewed. I kept thinking if I said something it would make things weird and would mess things up even more.<br /><br />What a drag, oh well. I'll let her know next time I go in. My stylist, not the fat ass. If this haircut is bad I'm really going to be pissed. Again, oh well. I guess I'd have more of a leg to stand on about this looking good issue if I'd made more progress on the self improvement. Notice the lack of updates on fitness etc.<br /><br />Anyway, I just had to vent, so there it is.Fogelsville4http://www.blogger.com/profile/10161914832520698104noreply@blogger.com0
