I'm not usually literal. But I am today. I'm feeling very literal. Like, I'm going on a car trip to Illinois, so I went to rent a car. I asked Adrian to write a word on me. He wrote "carro" - car in Spanish. I took the photo in a car.

That's literal. Am I embodying the car today as I drive up I-35? Am I a car simply by association? Is my arm the vehicle? Does the photograph then become the car itself merely because it includes both the word and the image? Magritte might have something to say. Or not.

Enough. Folks, the word. The photo. The car.
