Perhaps one can do both? One can eat the arts in the sense that marginal people deal in art - antique and otherwise, by becoming middle men for the vast pool of stuff that comes floating out of American homes. At flea markets all across the country I have met people who could never exist in 9-5 jobs laboring away at redistributing beautiful and not so beautiful stuff. Then there are the street artists who make and sell their own stuff. They "eat" art. I don't think they live in expensive real estate but most of them don't want to- which is why they do what they do.

As for the rest of us, even the busiest person can keep a book by the toilet to read casually. OR for those who watch television (perhaps you do not, I don't know) rent some great art movie or critically acclaimed film- fast art that won't cost an arm and a leg and won't take much time. I HIGHLY recommend Henry Fool. I found that movie to be fantastic on many levels. I am going to add it to my video library. The last video I added (aside from the ones for my children, ugh The Rugrats Movie) was Zero Effect which is marvelous. I see almost every movie that comes out that sounds good- and even some that don't sound good because I get them free as Blockbuster has that guarantee if it isn't in. you get it free (for their featured movies). That is how I saw What Dreams May come, uck, what swill.
