The bronze statue they have of HW bush in that airport looks like what the statute of lenin in fremont would look like if soviet russia had mail-order catalogues.

both have a windswept image of an iconic man, only if I recall correctly unlike lenin bush isn't wearing his jacket, its slung over his shoulder.

I love how that it had to be "Intercontinental" just to emphasize this isn't any dinky airport. No jaunts to Mexico and Canada, we're Europe and Asia bound here!

When I try to conjure an image of purgatory, the DFW airport comes to mind. Houston is hell.

Yeah, and the jacket's shooting straight back from his shoulder to suggest a strong wind, which comes off pretty hilarious indoors (and bronze). How I wish it were Fremont-Lenin-sized!

You know what I'm always noticing in Grey's Anatomy? There's a Low - The Great Destroyer poster that's always popping up in different locations. Sometimes it's behind the nurses' desk, sometimes it's in the MRI room . . . I've seen a Postal Service poster a couple times, too.

Another Seattle artist has been featured since the first season. My friend and Seatle artist, Joey Robinson. Two of his black maids are in one frame above Dr. Burke's buffet.
You should interview him. It is a great story on how he was "discovered."
