from the press\/info release:<\/em><\/p>\n

” . . when Wegman met Thurber he was crestfallen. That is, he dropped a tube of toothpaste into the toilet. I don’t know why they decided to meet in the bathroom. maybe it seemed like gender-neutral territory. Foolish Thurber left some Wegmans too close to a scented candle and … whoops.<\/p>\n

“It seems they’ve started to copy each other’s drawings. To become the other’s ‘evil twin’<\/strong>…but let’s not be naive here!…a ‘good’ drawing? an ‘evil’ drawing’?
\nNo such thing exists…we all know that.
\nWe…did you close the chimney flue? You fool, don’t you know bad drawings can crawl down the chimney like bats, like leopards, like Wegmans and Thurbers????
\nThere is however, possibly at this moment in your unattended studio washroom a witch <\/strong>, laughing at you in the mirror.
\nCome on now…enough is enough.
\nAre you being serious?
\nOr are you just halving (sic) Fun?”<\/p>\n

yeah, so there – rain.
\nrain, rain go away – come again another day.
\nha, yeah. it’s raining cats & dogs<\/strong> here in NYC.<\/p>\n

so, yeah. of course everybody knows WILLIAM WEGMAN.
\nbut people have asked me – do you<\/strong> know the other guy ?<\/p>\n

mais oui \/ but, of course.<\/p>\n
