Kristen Gehring, in the Chicago Journal, wrote a events reminder  of the Intuit book party on April 27th.  We know that this is a couple weeks late, but we still wanted to share:

Tonight, Thursday, April 27, at 6 p.m., we’re going to Intuit: The Center for Intuitive and Outsider Art, 756 Milwaukee Ave. (312/243-9088), to hear Found Magazine creator Jason Bitner talk about his new book, LaPorte, Indiana, which "presents a selection from 18,000 studio portraits [he] stumbled upon in the backroom of a diner in northwestern Indiana." We’re from northwest Indiana. It is not outside the realm of possibility that a portrait of us in our Sunday best, with our parents and our two stupid little brothers, may be among the 18,000 photos discovered by Mr. Bitner. This would not be good for our image. We plan to take a blowtorch along tonight, so we can discreetly excise the offending portrait should it show up in the presentation. If Mr. Bitner is upset, we shall quietly tuck the blowtorch into our handbag and goddess demurely.

Luckily, the blowtorches weren't needed.
