I would like to meet anyone who won't tell me what they superficially like or dislike. Let's go DEEP. I like to know people, but it is not enough to know that you switched to a new moisturizer. It is not enough to know whether you prefer coke or pepsi. I will smell your armpit if that is what it takes to get the funk out of you. Don't make me do it. Was that one line?
We are totally in the wrong business. But then again, for art to sell for that much you gotta be dead and what's the point of making that much money when you are dead.

I was just trying to figure out the answer to that very question.
See, tonight there's a show on PBS about the artist, Mark Rothko. Since I've never heard of him, I did some digging to see if I'll even be interested in this show. And here we find this melted crayon which set a record for highest price for a post-war painting.
I'll be the first to admit I don't have an appreciation for certain things, and after having them explained to me then I totally change my opinion.
Man, you gotta hit me in the head with a shovel to convince me this thing is art.
I'm watchin' that show tonight, I wanna hear someone explain this from a professional standpoint.
