Munch Google

The front page of the Google Search engine today commemorates Edvard Munch's Birthday, a Norwegian painter who died in 1944, and who painted pictures that are best forgotten.If you want to see a bunch of Munch's ugly paintings just type "Munch" into the the Google search engine for "Images" and you will see what I mean. Google can commemorate Munch's birthday on their home page but do nothing for Memorial Day or Veterans Day. In order to come up with an "antidote" for having looked at Munch's paintings I typed "Norman Rockwell" into Google Images. By the way Google, Rockwell's birthday is February 3 and I will be watching for a commemoration.
