Post-birthday post
A great half-day of work, followed by spending time with my lovely wife, and then an evening of games and fondue with friends. Awesome way to spend a b-day.
Light post for Saturday, as I am off to play with spears and then will try to escape the muggy day by camping out with fans and an AC unit. Some writing might be done, should sweat not obscure my vision of the keyboard.
I will leave you with these questions. Ponder them carefully.
Why?
Why?
and...Why?!
I see that smile.

I know! Why use a platinum cast when he could have used a real skull? The teeth are real, so why not the rest? I don't get it? Why?!
Some things are just not right in the world.
I love the irony of how he financed the whole thing for millions of dollars, but he's so wallowing in cash that he doesn't even remember the total. I'm not so sure this is high art as much as it is just a show of how much this artist can get away with and still get acclaimed for.
stolen gold bathtub: because
diamond encrusted skull: because
dance dance immolation WITHOUT the flame retardant suit: why not?

#3--A Whole New Take on Stupidity
Hmmm. I wonder if the flame-thrower thing could be considered art. Maybe an interpretive dance for Dante?
And, yeah, there might be some artist-just-trying-to-get-away-with-it stuff going on with the skull. Maybe if he sculpted a whole skeleton instead? That would be interesting--and force him to have an intimate knowledge of skeletal anatomy. That might be kinda cool. Might be.
