Costs & Benefits

No, I am not going to back to irregular blogging, and I was not watching classic films or NFR members.  The last two nights I simply went to bed early, for better or worse.  OK, better; there are times one just needs rest.  Also, I was getting the OC budget together, which takes time...

One of my college roommates sent me this... his dad asked what I thought of it, and... well, I agree!  I mean, I don't think that courts shitting on intent will go away, and I think that yes, museums should spend more on art.  Of course, now... can they?  I mean, in this day and age, how many people will rush -- en masse -- to see latest collection of Van Hoots?  I highly doubt the Re-Open protesters are the CMA crowd, if you get my drift...
