Dana Ellyn "31 Days in July Project" for July 19, 2010

From: www.danaellyn.com
For July 19, 2010:

Seat Hogs, Worker Bees and Sheeple

The Washington Post runs a front page story about 'seat hogs' - people who sit in the aisle seat and refuse to move over or spread out their belongings (or themselves) so nobody can sit next to them... even during the height of the rush hour commute. One of the stories inside the paper was about the suicide bombing in Kabul that killed three. The story described a man who ran to the site of the blast and saw the head of what he thought to be the bomber. He said "I wanted to kick the suicide bomber's head, but the security guards wouldn't let me". I depicted an image of that on the front page of the newspaper in the painting.
