The Warped Woodturner (TWW) is a local artist traveling his artist's journey in a suburb of Springbrook, WI (pop. 536). TWW's creative calling is to use a wood lathe to make useless objects from locally-sequestered organic carbon for tourists to bring back to the city to give to people they had to buy something for but do not like that much. His target market is the senior citizens since their vision is not as good as it used to be so cannot see the defects as well. His marketing jingle is: “Bowls as simple as their creator”.

Was Clarence Thomas a black sheep?







Or how about  Juan Williams or Sarah Palin? Williams is a member of the liberal ingroup  who dared to cavort with Fox News. Thomas was a Republican affirmative action pick who is part of the black person ingroup and Palin is a member of the women's ingroup who went bad. 


"Black-sheep effect refers to the the tendency for members to evaluate a disliked an ingroup member who performs an offensive behavior  more harshly than an outgroup member who performs the same offense".
