Vandals Savagely Attack Deep Ellum Residence
Gregg Fussell and Gianna Madrini have themselves a cool compound in Deep Ellum. Very secret garden. The picture you see here is of their curved wall that faces Main Street, site of the just-concluded Deep Ellum Arts Festival. At various points along the street, the festival organizers had left small buckets of chalk for kiddos (and adults) to leave their mark underfoot. My own personal kiddos did some good work at the corner of Main and Pryor, thank you very much. As we were leaving, I spotted the Fussell-Madrini wall, which I assume was fair game for chalk — right? Will rain wash all that chalk off the rusty surface of the steel?

sunday nite, DE officials deployed a team of specially-trained new york-based thailand ridgeback hounds to lick the fence clean. being that the chalk was edible and burger scented made it a real treat for the hounds. they are looking forward to next year!
You found me. I am “the” chalker. I promise to do it again; and, next time it will take me less than a weekend.
“chalker”, the only chalk you use is the stuff you drink for your ulcer. we have your information on file and have forwarded it to the proper authorities and various covert organizations. next time, think before you chalk. have a nice day.
Dog vomit.
