    Terrible, you’re so cruel… T_T
    But you know? I went to the MOMA three years ago… And I think is not the best! This weekend I found a little place near my house where you can eat ice cream and listen blues, at the same time you watch some work. Amazing uh?

    Remember the “Fear, Dread & Anxiety” scene on “30 Something?” The dwarves? This brought it all back with icing.
    Thx

    … Crap.
    Eventually it ALL boils down to advertising, doesn’t it?

    Mean, mean man! And this on a day when working in marketing is gnawing on my soul.

    Thanks Hugh, while it may sound a little Nialistic (not spelled right?), I feel like the cartoon boils it down to one thing: will you still do it if they don’t care? Now, of course art isn’t art if it doesn’t resonate with someone else, but it’s a good reality check: Am I working on this peice because I am driven by my sole to do it, or because I think it will make them up at the top like me? (this never works)
    Thanks for the reminder.

    I’m pretty sure that what hangs in MOMA is advertising, too, just with no tangible product.

    I shut down the indie-rock record label and I’m just on the verge of shutting down the I Could Still Be A Rock Star Dream.
    But it’s not all bad, I have a lot more paid and free time now that my money-losing obsession has ended!

    Best way to ease the conscience is to collapse distinctions.

    Delicious. Awful. Accurate.

    Ouch. 29 years for me working for the advertising man. (sigh)
