$17 million crap

[essentialsaltes]

= $17,368,000.

Becca? Ice? Toren? Joyce? Anyone? Bueller? They look pretty easy to fake. I bet we could sell them out of the back of a van. "Psssst? Buddy... you wanna Rothko or a Mondrian, cheap? $5 million for one, or get two for $8 million."

Damn art.

I swear, I just do not get or enjoy modern art. This theory of paying so much money for things even I can do in my garage seems beyond silly. I was in the sculpture garden today, and I was looking at this three holed ellipsoid thing, and it was named Potolemy III, and I'm just thinking "huh?" Of course that was leaps and bounds more interesting than 17 million for a thing using two colors and a mixture in between. :(
