Hmmmm!
What a nice idea that was...I like that...the 'Boxes'...
More of an 'installation' than planned maybe...I admire the
Artist's experiment...
Many 'police' may be observed, especially federal ones, to
exceed even their former 'standards' of ability, insight,
effectiveness and discernment.
Really, they should have just called in the boys as did so
nice a job at 'Waco', (er...'revenuers' as they used to call
'em) and let them deal with them 'boxes'...
They'd a-know'd what to do...
They had more experience...they had the 'knack'...such
verve!

The New York Times reported on Wednesday that a 25 year old
freshman
foundation student was arrested for "reckless endangerment"
for putting 37
black boxes in Union Station and painting the word "FEAR" on
them. The
police assumed it was a potential terrorist threat and
arrested him. I
believe that the District Attorney may actually press
charges. He had planned
to photograph people's reaction to the boxes as a
"performance piece."
(LOL) maybe this will induce the DA and the university to
close down the
sculpture department and open a ceramics department where
they can teach the
perpetrator and his fellow students to do something "useful"
(functional)
with their lives.
