I understood 'necking' from a pretty early age, but I have never understood the morbid curiosity seekers who suddenly appear after a tragedy, auto wreck, etc. I have observed the phenomena in passing several times and also, personally, after the auto accident. I could sense people squeezed all around my poor Fiat. Some had their phones out, some were asking me, "Are you alright?" Now I ask you, if you saw a person bent over and gushing blood from multiple wounds---would you ask him that? This is an 8 by 5.5 inches gel pen with charcoal pencil drawing on medium bond acid-free paper. Original Jones Art wonders if he'll ever understand the weird ways of the so-called dominant species in northwest Austin, Texas. When we eventually cover every square inch of planet earth, do you think we'll actually turn to one another and say hello?

Totally agree, Charles. 9 out of I0 would bring home a video of photos of an accident they witness. I hate standing and gazing! Be well!

Artist Reply: I think it reveals that most of us are not active participants in this human race but are on the sidelines taking the requisite number of snaps for the scrapbook. Thanks, Nikolay. It is always good to know and feel that you ARE an active member. :)

No Charles if saw you or anyone in that kind condition I'll be calling 911

Artist Reply: At least one person did, thankfully, Ray. Though it was quite the expensive trip. Hope you are adjusting to your relatively new surroundings okay. :)

Looky Lu's is another name for it. Sorry about your accident and how you have to deal with things now : ( Thankfully you're alive and hopefully for a long time to come : )

Artist Reply: As they say, Dave, only time will tell. Of course, I think he keeps his mouth shut until the very last second. :)
