On the subject of missings, DOUG. noted in the comments section of Goodbye, Brave Little Painting that this was not the first painting nailed to a telephone pole to disappear from Wallingford recently. His own painting, of the Telephone Pole Lorax, was disappeared back in June, and responses appeared in the Stranger’s Slog: You Had to Steal Their Chuckle.
Note: As is typical in the Slog, the comments section contains strong language and needless vitriol.
