Hey Tom, welcome back. Really. There are some new people here; you're right. We are interested in what happens to you. My memory is very bad, so the first I saw your name I wasn't sure you were you; and I admit I then immediately thought Genesis, and especially when I saw a quote begin....... :o)
I never played football. But when MJ watches Monday Night Football and all, I always hear about this world-famous "groin injury". It's sposed to hurt. Well, I had to wait 45 years, but I got one.
It hurts.
But MJ is taking me to Portland to see a big herd of Monet's paintings what flew into the museum. "If you can't stand up, we'll get you a wheelchair" she says. I love this woman.
The last exhibit. well, we missed it, so we're being careful this time. She got a Monday off; and we headed north. It was Gauguin and Bonnard, from their early years together in France. A seminal(?) period of time and art that really fascinates me. It explains much of everything else.
"Can't we get in?"
Every museum, I'm pretty sure, closes Mondays. My favorite film is Will Vinton's first, about what the paintings in a museum do on the day off. It's "Closed Mondays."
"WHERE are the paintings???"
"On the plane. Over your head." |
