Then write the most absurdist artist's statement you can, making sure to include phrases like "paradoxical disordered order," "decadence," parody of petit bourgeouis sensibility" and "self-absorbed pseudo-humanism of end-stage capitalist America." Take photograph and statement, and send them to New York or San Francisco galleries. They will pay you $120,000 for an original Tom Manley, muralist successor to Jackson Pollack. Make sure they agree to cut out the drywall, replace it, and repaint it, good as new. Keep Tom away from the room when this happens. All problems solved, and a neat nest egg in the bargain! :-) --Peter On Mon, Dec 7, 2015 at 9:31 PM, Ted Grant <tedgrant at shaw.ca> wrote: > Well my dear Tina, > > May I suggest to your wonderful hubby Tom, as Irene did to me one day as I > near fell off our back deck doing somewhat similar activities as Tom. > "IDIOT > YOUR NOT 21 ANYMORE!" > > > > Oh some things we can still be involved in, "Sweeping up the cuttings!"
