Ernie Barnes is dead, and aren't you glad it isn't you?

a little soderbergh humor. anywho, i'm John. New to blogger but a seasoned blogger. and now:
CNN reports that Ernie Banks, "Good Times" artist, died today. but when I read it, I thought '"Good Times" artist' meant this


or at least this


but not this.

it's the thing from the end of Good Times. Ah. but of course, if they'd had said "Sugar Shack" artist', i'd think this


or quite possibly this


but still probably not this


EDIT: I've had a hard time keeping those images of Sugar Shack live on here. Something about copyright. Ah well. You can check it out at http://www.erniebarnesart.com/sugarshack.html
