That he would be quite old himself for a 35-year-old be damned.And never mind that modern medical advances now make it possible for women who are 40-plus (even 60-plus) to easily bear children (if they want to).

That painting is grotesque, but I think its still beautiful.

- John Mellencamp produced an oil painting inspired by street art that pointedly declares, Martin Luther King had a dream, and this aint it.

King deliberately looks nothing like the civil rights leader.

In Mellencamps most potent verse, he sings, So, Black lives matter / Who we trying to kid / Heres an easy target / Dont matter, never did.

Crosses burning / Such a long time ago / 400 years and we still dont, let it go.
