09.27.92 week in revue


Ross Perot is back in the news this week as was Tom Foley, former Speaker of the House. Then there was Cosmo Kramer who had the ability to make his point with very little thought. One wondered whether he was a genius or an idiot. Rush Limbaugh’s television venture was short lived. A somewhat unique element to this week’s posting is the consistent color theme from randomly selected clippings. There is a clockwise progression of visuals starting with Capt. Perot.

09.20.92 week in revue


Boris is back in the news as he does some saber rattling. Is the pen mightier than the sword? A return to my original May 17 post as Brown vs. Quayle continues to ignite the media.

09.13.92 week in revue


Rather than comment on the content, here are a few notes on how this page evolved during this week of 1992. I clipped the heading, “Looking for Trouble” which lead me to the unrest in Africa clipping. Which lead me to the old west comedic character. The checkerboard and spheres were added for visual interest. The Hollywood obit of everyone’s favorite neighbor, “Norman Bates,” was added to balance out the right half of the page. The clipped blue text blanket statement was included to give graphic balance and tie in the blues.

09.06.92 week in revue


Highlights the week in 1992 was Jerry Lewis Telethon. It broke a new giving record and a record number of anti-lewites. Spike suggested students skip school to go see his movie, “Malcolm X” when it releases in November. You just cannot beat good PR. Red tape for storm victims did not start with Katrina.
