You might remember the poster containing a rooster on fire dressed in a Priest outfit, hanging over my bed, I told you about before. On another wall in my little room I have a poster where an old picture of George Washington is half covered by an image of a transvestite(?). You can see it in this post. I bought it at the very nice De Jong Museum in Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. I’m not sure why I enjoy it so much, maybe it’s the black underwear, or the great ideas one gets if imagining George Washington as a transvestite. Here you can see all of Deborah Oropallo’s pictures in this series, mine is the one titled ’George’. There is also a great one of Napoleon, he had good calf muscles. This blog is a certified Oropallo fan.

It's the de Young...which you should know because it is where I work and we went there together one fine day in June 2007:)

hm, that is unfortunate. But my spelling has always been below par. I still find it a bit surreal, in an admiring way, that you actually work there. A place with great modern art in a beautiful park with squirrels. You could do a lot worse.
