Although, this is not the first time I have posted to this group.  This is
my version of the reflective balls on a checkered plain.  It is inspired by
an old classic.  Any oments would be appreciated.

ps. Does anyone know the name of the original classic and the artist, pr
perhaps has a link to the image?

Thanks,

m&ms meet American Gothic by Grant Wood
(http://www.artic.edu/artaccess/AA_Modern/pages/MOD_5.shtml) would be my 
guess. It was also stolen for the cover of the 1997 movie "For Richer or 
Poorer" starring Tim (the toolman) Allen and Kirstey Alley 
(http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119142/)

Gee,

Not wanting to 'bring anybody down' but this whole "Required"
first post checkered plane thing is starting to 'harsh my mellow'.

What? Is this a club?

Nothing against Kevork's wonderful posting which had me
totally LOL, but...
(I always think about this great pic I saw of a checkered
plane (read: Boeing/Airbus) with some other wonderfully inventive
stuff which I can't remember.)

Again, great pic Kevork. I'm sure Mr. Woods is laughing in his grave.
