I'm constantly amazed at what some folks consider art. Yeah, I know, I don't get out much.

But, someone actually paid for this....................... I've been told that you can't hide money, it pretty obvious to me, you can't hide bad taste either.

This is Brussels' landmark since 1618:



He's much smaller than the dog, though.

I think about archeologist who search for past civilizations art, tools, artifacts and evidence of life styles. I know a thousand years from now there will still be archeologists, when I think about what they will say and write about us, I have to wonder what they'll say.

I guess it really doesn't matter, I won't be around to be embarrassed or have to explain what the hell some of it was all about.

I always wanted to get one of those and put it at the end of the driveway and put some sort of timer on the pump so it goes on and off real quickly like he has prostrate problems.

What can I say I am a twisted individual !

I thought that was a shadow.
It looks just like my dog, except he's smaller, and brown.

Personally, I don't see the point of it but it doesn't bother me. I think it's kind of funny (in a disturbing sort of way).

Considering the other sh!t they call art out there, this at least took some effort to make. Compared to being high on something and splashing paint on a wall or something stupid can calling it art. Dumbfrackers, get a real job.

I'm thinking a motion sensor and having it up high enough to wash incoming windshields would work for me.

I have no idea what you were looking for when you found that but............................... Oh, never mind, I got a D in art in college anyway. I guess I'll never understand and to be honest, I don't really want to after observing that.
