This is the best page I’ve seen in weeks. I adore this kind of stuff. ADORE IT. They Thought You’d Say This
And remember, “Hand me over those moccasins. — They will not help you much, they are like a singed cat.”

Found this lovely USA Today article about Thomas Kinkade, the “artist” and I have to tell you…I haven’t seen anyone this high on himself since L. Ron Hubbard founded a religion based on his own science fiction novels. Kinkade even refers to his fan base as “the cult of Kinkade.”
The article is just so jaw-droppingly amazing that I should just let you read it for yourself. I think the two items I will remember forever is that he thinks God became his art agent, and if you buy an upper end painting with a signature, the ink the machines use to “sign” it are mixed with his HAIR AND BLOOD. Free DNA for the price of admission!
Gah.
He dismisses all criticism and feels that one day in the future his works will be considered important. I’m sure the artists who made all those pictures of big-eyed children in the 60’s/70’s felt the same way. Kinkade might want to take another gander at some of the things his art agent said in the Bible, and maybe spend a little less time being prideful and attempting to amass wealth. I’m pretty sure God isn’t pro-consumerism.
Just checking to see if things are working again. The gas was up to 1.19 today and I was forced to buy some. I think if I had gone to the gas station just half an hour earlier, it would have still been 1.17, because one of the four islands still had the old price in the little sign on top of the pump. When I pointed that out, the guy said, ya, I was just doing that and didn’t get to finish. The big price by the road was 1.19, as was the price inside the machine.
Oh, and for those who might be wondering, the web cam picture of the day is of my new teapot, which I got for the bargain of $15! The little bee is actually sitting on a sunflower, which is the removeable top. Today’s Tea: Lady Grey (which I guess is related to Earl Grey.)
