please, if you are going to buy art at auction, visit your local library and research. ten minutes looking at art sales index can save you hundreds of dollars, or more. especially when you will be bidding and hoping to outbid someone else, it is easy to get carried away. as an art librarian, I often have to tell people what they should have paid after the fact. be smart.

I prefer the scrabble board I found at the thrift. It is the kind with the plastic grid and oxblood tiles. sadly, most boardgames are cheaply made, despite coming in pretty packages.

whatever as in, what a gigantic load of theoretical crap. this little shed is no more an antidote for the consumer cultural miasma than it is a dwelling. the last photo with the earnest fins sitting around the tiny table, all bunched up sums it perfectly. unrealistic.

Begrudgingly, yes, this is chili. Like all great American culinary inventions, it is a mutt. An amalgamation of Texas meat chili with Greek spices. Chili changes by region of the country. For me, if you want great bean chili, go to Ben's Chili Bowl on U street in DC. They have vegetarian, and they serve it on fries. With yellow cheese. There are pictures of Bill Cosby eating a hot dog on the wall.

nsfw link. last thing I need is my office mates seeing me looking at a picture of a man shower that shows his butt.

seizure inducing.

if you can manage to read the signature I can look this up, I am an art librarian. though, the above responses are true, it might be something, it might not be. signatures being what they are, it is often difficult to find out the name of the artist. but obviously, that would be the place to start. of course, in the end, it only matters if it holds decorative value. if you like it, it is good.
