Birds in Barbwire

I thought this bit of graffiti was very powerful... from the flickr "Graffiti at an Industrial Building in Asheville NC - 05/02/08" picture set.

Human Nature?

My new favorite police show is "Without a Trace". The show has its quirks, but is more "realistic" than others I've seen. While I do enjoy the show, it is sad to see how often people lie or "forget" to offer information until the FBI officers corner them. I acknowledge that people don't want to admit they've screwed up or are just bad people, but the parade of human flaws is marginally depressing. Are there any honest villains in the world or are we just here to lie our way out of misdeeds until we're caught? Sigh...
