Joan and Jane and Joan

Derek sends me these links, thus demonstrating that there is some kind of creepy resonance thing happening with sisters named Joan and Jane - of course you remember Thing a Week 8. Gotta love Google (unless you are Chinese).

    Interesting that these are all east coasters — many of which ae even from New York. And what’s up with that painting? That definitely seems like a male wolf. Where Joan? Or Jane?
