Dave is in the Smithsonian???
gwbu...@aol.com
the Smithsonian Institute yesterday. It stated that Hillary's pic will
be "placed in the "American Now" exhibit, along with peers such as
David Letterman and Toni Morrison". Dave has a portrait in the
Smithsonian??? First I heard of it. Any more info on this???

I have of late, but wherefore I know not, lost all my mirth.
Maybe it's behind the sofa.

Looks like two paintings of Dave in the National Portrait Gallery.
Here's the linkage...
Additionally, the Museum of American History has an exact replica of
Dave's kitchen, including all of his knives, cookwear, and utensils.
Oh, wait--- that's Julia Childs. Never mind.

Did the second painting of Dave need to be created after NBC lawyers
claimed the first was their intellectual property?

Are the portraits themselves visible on this site? I couldn't see any.
Can't comment on the second (without first seeing it), but the
description of the first offers a big clue:
>> Credit Line: National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institution; gift of Time magazine <<
This must be what was originally the cover of the August 30, 1993,
issue of "Time."

I guess not. At first I thought I was having browser issues, but it
looks like none of their collections can be viewed on the interweb.

So is the name "video".
Kath - I live in Australia, and the only thing I fear is twisting my
ankle.

Some of the portraits in the collection have been digitized and are
available online. But not Dave's.

Child. Julia Child.

Is it true that in the southern hemisphere that your ankle twists
counter-clockwise?

Or, Child's: "Julia Child's."

Wouldn't that be "Childs'?" Pat?

<ACK! A question for little ol' me?>
You should know this one, Dake. The correct name for the French Chef is
without an "s" - Julia Child.
So anything that belongs to her would be Julia Child's.
If jazz pianist Billy Childs were cooking, you could be in Childs' kitchen
or in his recording studio.
Helen Read
Actually, wouldn't you be in Childs's kitchen? I thought that was the
proper (or at least a proper) way to form a possessive for a single
person whose name ends in s. OTOH, if you were in the kitchen belonging
to Julia Child's family, you'd be in the Childs' kitchen.

With some exceptions for names ending in S that go *way* back:
Socrates' iPod
Moses' golf handicap
Jesus' cordless drill

I may not know much about art, but I know
what they tell me I'm supposed to like.

Why yes Keith, yes and unfortunately the counter motion is more severe
than the northern hemisphere twist. The twisting is bad here, bad, bad
I tells ya. Jerry Lee Lewis has been banned as well as Chuck Berry to
prevent this scourge.
