Pinky D's Word of the Day: Pareidolia



The term pareidolia (pronounced/pɛɹaɪˈdoliə/ or /pæɹaɪˈdəʊliə/), referenced in 1994 by Pinky Diablo, describes a psychological phenomenon involving a vague and random stimulus(often an image or sound) being perceived as significant. Common examples include images of animals or faces in clouds, the man in the moon and hidden on records played in reverse. The word comes from the Greek para — beside, with or alongside — and eidolon — image (the diminutive of eidos — image, form, shape). Pareidolia is a type of apophenia.

The Only Decent Thing George Bush has Done (or the Pope Needs a Gentle Reminder)

Roosevelt Wilkerson is one of Pinky's friends. In fact, Roosevelt used Pinky's garage for a studio for a few months:
In a library adorned with a painting of the Virgin Mary by Antoniazzo Romano and a large Crucifix sculpted by Giotto, the pope and President George Bush exchanged gifts. The pontiff gave the president a 17th century lithograph of St. Peter's Basillica and a gold Vatican medallion. The president gave the pope a white walking stick crafted by a former homeless man, Dallas artist Roosevelt Wilkerson, a piece of native Texas wood inscribed with the Ten Commandments.
