Unconnected.

Recently I noticed this sticker by the after hours book return slot at the Francis Morrision Library, aka the main branch, on 23rd Street.

I really don't see the connection between tattoos and libraries, other than there being tattoo books in the library.


And as a bonus here's a shot of the lovely colours of the leaves across the street on the City Hall grounds.

Social Commentary, Perhaps.

comment

This was one of two or three painted on the parking lot in front of the Colonial Cold Beer and Wine Store on 8th Street.  I'm guessing this grafitti was done late at night given that there's no sign of it being smudged by being run over.  But even then it must take a bit of courage to do that on one of the busiest streets in town, and in front of a business that might have been open at the time.

Unacceptable Canvas.


Like most cities of any size Saskatoon has a problem with grafitti. This recent example is located on a private residence, so I will refrain from giving its location. There is no justification for this kind of vandalism. If you want to fool around with spraypaint do it on your own property. If anyone knows any significance to any of the symbols show feel free to leave a comment on what they mean.

Evil on 8th Street.

modok

I spotted this sticker a while ago on 8th Street on a traffic light pole. It's MODOK, who has been troubling the world of Marvel Comics since the 1960s. The Mental Organism Designed Only for Killing was originally a scientist of the scientific criminal organisation AIM before he was chosen to be mutated into his current form. Unfortunately for those involved they succeeded far beyond their own expectations, and MODOK soon took over AIM with the dangerous psychic powers he gained. It should be noted that MODOK normally travels about in a hoverchair, so he would have little use for a button to activate pedestrian walk lights
