Detail, New Orleans is Sinking, painting by Tammy Vitale of Tam’s Originals.

I painted this picture about 4 years ago after a marvelous trip to New Orleans,  It’s title is based on a Tragically Hip songline:  New Oreans is sinking, and I don’t want to swim.  Unfortunately predictie of times to come.

The reason for this quick post is to tell you that I posted "Rules for Being Human" over at my  myspace blog yesterday (May 17).  I’ve quoted them here a few times, piecemeal.  If you’d like to read them then check out that post.
