When I was a kid, car trips where the worst. Now, with DVD players and video games, I want to be in the back seat and make my wife drive. I just say that because she's in the back watching a movie. :(

DIA's Demon Horse Explained

A true-ish story, I have a sister-in-law with a couple of great kids. One of them is a horse lover to the extreme. They flew into Denver, and as we are leaving DIA, my sister-in-law sees this horse from a distance and points it out to her daughter. She gets all excited to see the horse as we drive by. As we approach her eyes get wider with anticipation. We get to the point where we can see the eyes. Her expression of joyful happiness turns into pure fear. You see, these are not your normal eyes that you would expect to see, they are glowing red and pierce your soul. From that day on, my niece no longer has a love for horses. (OK not true, but it sounds kind of true.)
Anyway...
I can't believe all of the controversy this horse has made. I also read that during the production of the piece, the artist was killed by the head falling and crushing him. It makes me sad.
