On Monday, I treated my flist to a bizarre 1924 New York Times article about the anarchistic qualities of cats and sincerity-deficient dogs.

Today, I bring you The Cuddly, Fluffy, Surreal World of Angora Show Bunnies, from today's edition of the New York Times.

The Times sent the often controversial avant-garde artist, Andres Serrano to a National Angora Show, (the Westminster for Angoras), held in a pole barn in Palmyra, N.Y. to take pictures of fluffy bunnies.

Apparently, Mr. Serrano, who was infamous in culture-war circles for submerging a crucifix into jar of his own urine and calling is "Immersion (Piss Christ)" also really likes taking pictures of "nice portraits of cats and dogs and children".

According to the artist/photographer, the Angoras were excellent subjects, basically "living pillows".

There is a charming slideshow of those living pillows, and if you are so inclined, you can then take a quiz to see which Andres Serrano fluffy bunny you are. Frequent readers of the NYT will get a laugh out of the questions.


I am, apparently Silvertone Sophia

I'm Terri's Prince Charming. A pragmatic rabbit that looks like a grumpy goat with a bad blow out.

I much prefer the new panel of ethicists too the old single opinion (Randy ??) And if I were Andres Serrano and had weathered the sheer idiocy of the reaction to Immersion (Piss Christ), I'd stick to fluffy bunnies and other harmless animals too.
