“No Sleep Till Dulles” just wouldn’t have packed the same punch. A Reddit user posted a photo today of one airport’s inventive homage to recently deceased Beastie Boys member Adam Yauch, altering the information screen for a Virgin America flight from San Francisco to Washington Dulles to pay tribute with re-imagined lyrics to one of the group’s most famous songs, “Fight for Your Right.”

Thomas Kinkade, the self-proclaimed “Painter of Light,” died April 6 of what appear to be natural causes at his home in Los Gatos, Calif. He was 54.
The painter, who claimed to be the most-collected living artist in the United States, is survived by his wife, Nanette, and four daughters. “Thom provided a wonderful life for his family,” Nanette Kinkade said in a statement. “We are shocked and saddened by his death.”
Kinkade rose to prominence in the mid ’90s as a spiritual heir to Norman Rockwell. In the more than 1,000 paintings that he produced during his career, Kinkade offered up an idyllic America That Never Was to a nostalgia-hungry audience looking for depictions of a simpler, less harried way of life. Media Arts Group, the company that licensed, distributed, and sold his products, estimates that some form of Kinkade’s art appears in 1 of every 20 American homes. READ FULL STORY »
