I stopped by 1988 Gallery Saturday to check out their Please Post Bills - An Art Tribute to a Comedic Legend exhibit, featuring the eclectic Bill Murray.  Bill has a massive cult following, and quite a few rumored tales of showing up at random places and acting like a lunatic, albeit an awesome one.

The main reason I went is to view the artwork done by Slate's pal Aaron Sechrist.

This featured a quote where David Letterman introduced Bill as "Bill Murphy, ladies and gentlemen." Woops.
