Finally



Carey wins the contest for providing the first snapshot of the icon for which this blog is named. Garden variety Calvin peeing on a Ford, the one that started it all, I daresay. Nice composition to boot.

Bos indicus


I had been wondering what would be an appropriate response to Sara's jihad sticker. Anyone I showed it to said that even in Berkeley, yes that car would get keyed. What do we have here besides the ubiquitous Coexist stickers (puke)? I really wanted to get the Cowboy Up: Iranian edition I followed en route to work, with complementary pink family stickers with 5 women and no men. Not my day.

But then, picking up propane out back of a filling station in Mountain View, I found: yes an old Cheyenne with Bos indicus on the door. It says, Yes I am new to your country, yes Krishna was raised by cows and bathed in milk, yes that's a bull's cock on my driver's side door. He says, no sorry we are not selling it.
