Friday Afternoon Video: Wheat-pasting in the news

On Monday Houstonist posted about Stick Em Up a blog and documentary about the art of wheat-pasting in Houston. Just a few days later, MyFoxHouston ran this hilariously un-ironic story about the "new" form of graffiti plaguing the town, complete with hip music and cheesy color-saturated montages of what must be the sloppiest spray-painting in Houston.

The story include quotes from the owners of Aerosol Warfare, and an interview with an extremely humorless city council woman.

I think perhaps the best part of the piece is at the end when Ned uses the dramatic pause 3 times:
"If they are caught the will need to Give Up....their driver's license...for up to a year..."
Drama + Smarm = Smama?
Good Grief!
