Street messages and aesthetics reflect us back to ourselves – a continuous look in the funhouse mirror.

Sometimes the physical manifestations are straightforward and obvious, other times they stir more murky subconscious impulses and swirling feelings.  While the country is being newly torn by the scene unfolding by the day in the waters of the Gulf of Mexico, conversations that could have been easily ignored are now quickly blipping up the neuronic priority list.

It feels natural that this simple and strong DISS was bubbling to the top any minute. Who knows how deep and wide the plume below is.
