SLICE OF LIFE

I'm going to save up all my money and go to Tuscany, and find a beautiful hillside and set up an easel and paint cute kittens with big eyes. And every night I would eat only Kraft Mac 'n Cheese that I had brought with me. That would teach those Europeans a thing or two about art.

Great drawing, Bob (or should I just call you crackskull?) Can I ask, did you produce this standing on the spot beside these guys or take a photo first and work it up later on your computer? Its very effective either way.

I browsed through a bunch of my old photos, looking for something that was seemingly mundane, but could be made interesting by drawing it.

I saw a Tuscany special on TV yesterday and decided I had to go there. Will you share your Kraft? I'm not really sure what is it, but sounds good.

You should do sad looking clowns, which we europeans would then put on the door of our bathrooms, now that would be art, I can hardly wait ! You know how eager we always are to learn from you guys in every field of endeavour. Might I suggest that with your meal you drink wine out of a gallon carton with a little tap-thingy on the side, and you could consider bringing and brewing your own coffee too, that would really show us !

Wow, barytonneuse, I already do all those things, so I would probably fit right in!

And Deb, it's a deal if you bring canned spinach. I love canned spinach. Those poor Tuscaninis probably have to rely on fresh stuff, not having access to the canned.

What a deal! Let's talk.

Spam Lite, that is just wrong. But not as wrong as Pork Brains in Milk Gravy.
