I would acknowledge by debt to both Stefan Kirkeby and Palo Alto Art Center if I wrote a post comparing the work of the still photographer O. Winston Link to the current Hollywood blockbuster motion picture juggernaut “Unstoppable” starring Denzel Washington.

Here is a rather snarky review of the movie by Jen Yamato for Film dot com. (Not sure if I will see the film; the movie about Aron Ralston — starring local-bred cuddly like a Teddy rising star what’s his face, makes his mother proud, first, but am reading the very well-written memoir first — it will likely take me about 127 hours over a matter of weeks to get through it, the way I read):

Congrats to Train for Grammy nomination for “Hey, Soul Sister.”
i used a search injun to find this image i think it is from a museum in carolina.
I was impressed by Pat Monahan’s humility in winning his Grammy. He made a joke about being fortunate that Justin Bieber was not in the same category — oddly foreshadowing the upset win for Esperanza Spalding (over Bieber) in the Best New Artist category, which itself foreshadowed the more significant upset of Merge Records artist Arcade Fire winning the big megillah (but not McGill) best album. I recall checking out Train as an opener at the Fillmore back when they were managed by BGP and Pat had long hair and a long beard — they were Led Zep wannabees.
Terry and I visited Stefan Kirkeby at SAN in SAN anselmo Saturday:
