ART, COMMERCE, AND THE LAST WORD


The great and revered Jamie Hewlett, who drew Tank Girl, in its prime, is now designing the packaging for an apparently very successful line of vibrators and adult toys.

MEANWHILE HCB may well have given us our last word on The Sopranos.
"Read this on a blog. I think it's my favorite…
Everything went black for the VIEWERS, not for Tony, AJ, Carmela or anyone else in the diner. WE, the audience were the ones who were whacked."

I have to take this to mean that Big Tony’s world abides but we are all in some television afterlife, but the we don’t know. I find this as plausible as the universe being balanced of the back of a giant turtle, or created by some bad-tempered, bearded, goat-herders' god six thousand years ago.

You do not whack a guy especially a boss in a crowded diner in front of his whole family. (Although the hit on Phil Leotardo did kinda bend the rules.)
