301   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:09pm  

But maybe I am insulting all your favorite artists? If so, I apologize.

My taste is more along the lines of Franz Marc, Marc Chagall...

any artist named "Marc" (kidding).

302   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:12pm  

"“Portrait of artist as a young boy masturbating” Lots of white. "

Yes, that's it.

"GREAT paintings of big carcases of beef in meat lockers hanging on hooks. "

Hmm, I think I might have seen a few of these in a college art class.

303   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:17pm  

We used to live near a church that was in Metz, France in which Chagall had done some of the stained glass in the windows. It was really beautiful and got me hooked on his style.

Wow, we just had a sort of polite conversation. How did this happen?

304   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:25pm  

"Wow, sounds better than saying “I used to live in Novato” or I used to live in Thrill Valley."

I'm sure Novato and Mill Valley are way better than the town we actually lived in. I have never met a French town I didn't like, but we lived across the border in dreary little German armpit of a town. Fog hung over it constantly, it was freezing cold, and it had very little of the typical quaint architecture of that region. It was beautiful countryside at least.

305   SJ_jim   2005 Oct 20, 3:26pm  

Wow "huh" is certainly becoming all-encomposing.

306   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:26pm  

"Mark Rothko, Ad Rienhardt (”Black paintings”) JMW Turner, Robert Irwin, James Turrell for me I guess. Wanna see my prints? Just kidding, never made one!"

I googled all the names. I looooove Turner's work. Also Rothko's. Am probably not highbrow enough to appreciate the black plastic-covered canvases. :-)

307   Peter P   2005 Oct 20, 3:28pm  

Wow “huh” is certainly becoming all-encomposing.

That is the idea. No thread bubble.

308   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:28pm  

"was implying that you might be getting bored listing to me go on and on about art!"

Nah, I missed out on taking more art classes in college. I might have majored in it except that I lived really far from the school and couldn't swing the extra hours on campus required for the labs.

309   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:29pm  

"Its not plastic!"

Oops, sorry, I read too fast.

310   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:31pm  

"Wow “huh” is certainly becoming all-encomposing."

Let's see, how can I get SJ Jim to make more jokes about lap-dancers... Must go consult my evil-mastermind manual.

311   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:37pm  

"The black paintings are actually hard edge geometric crosses of nine squares each. Not black really. Just close to it."

Okay now I have to go look at them again...

312   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:37pm  

So SQT is a work of art. Well, we all knew that anyway.

313   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:39pm  

Okay, my confusion came from reading one of the titles too quickly: "Black print on plastic." The nuances do not show up on my computer monitor. I can only see black.

314   Peter P   2005 Oct 20, 3:39pm  

So SQT is a work of art. Well, we all knew that anyway.

Huh?

315   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:39pm  

Oh, LOL, your warnings came too late.

316   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:40pm  

"Just get the can out and shut up!"

You're starting to scare me Jack. If you pull out a can opener I'm outta here.

Heh.

317   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:41pm  

"So SQT is a work of art. Well, we all knew that anyway.

Huh?"

Huh!

318   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:44pm  

Her kids are long gone to bed by now. Maybe she's trying on her nurse costume.

319   SQT15   2005 Oct 20, 3:46pm  

Oooooooooooh, seems like I came in at a good time. I like being called a piece of art. It's better than being called a real piece of work.

Children and husband in bed, safe to play now. :twisted:

320   SQT15   2005 Oct 20, 3:48pm  

Yes. For hubby?

And you're saying I'm bad?
Besides, I'm saving the costume for later.

321   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:49pm  

"Oooooooooooh, seems like I came in at a good time."

Ah-ha! Be sure to read previous comments carefully. You have been the subject of much conversation.

322   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:51pm  

"Yes Jamie, but you know that is not the WHOLE truth… Jamie the writer just HAD to embellish…"

Are you talking about the can opener? Because I clearly remember your so-elegantly-described scene with the can-opener-as-foreplay.

323   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:52pm  

"You mean later…tonight."

Let him have his fantasies, SQT.

324   SQT15   2005 Oct 20, 3:53pm  

You mean later…tonight.

I'm thinking when the kids are at grandma's.....

I did catch the Nurse Bendover comments. But I'm thinking I'd rather be Nurse BadAss.

325   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:56pm  

"Explain your process! Its what we do here on the “Huh” thread!"

You can't seriously want to know how my pea brain works. Describe YOUR process.

326   SQT15   2005 Oct 20, 3:57pm  

It must be the server, my computer is refreshing slowly too.
See, no BAD comments.

327   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:57pm  

"torrid pace"

He said torrid pace.

328   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 3:58pm  

"Which JAMIE introduced!"

Shall I go back in time and produce the actual evidence?

329   SQT15   2005 Oct 20, 4:01pm  

The only can I'm interested in is a can of "whup ass." Did I mention I'm a black belt? (true)

330   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 4:02pm  

In Jack's own words: "Surfer-x would come as a can of lubricant."

See, you are the origin of the can.

331   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 4:03pm  

"BTW, why me?"

Because you're here.

332   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 4:03pm  

And you can take a joke.

333   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 4:04pm  

And you can also make great jokes.

And you don't get offended by my awful sense of humor.

334   SQT15   2005 Oct 20, 4:05pm  

Oh gee Im scared SQT.

It's the Farrah hair isn't it? Not very intimidating. _Sigh_ I'll have to work on that.

335   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 4:06pm  

"Did I mention I’m a black belt? (true)"

Very cool.

Did I mention I LOVE Kung Fu flicks? That's about as close as I can get to a martial arts conversation. Well, "Kung Fu Flick" brings to mind the wrong thing, really. My favorite films are along the lines of movies like The House of Flying Daggers?

Anyone?

Jack, now there's an art discussion. Chinese cinimatography is sublime.

336   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 4:07pm  

"cinimatography"

Maybe I would appear smarter if I could ever learn to spell...

337   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 4:08pm  

"Maybe we are causing thread inflation!"

Oh dear...I hope we don't kill the website.

338   Jamie   2005 Oct 20, 4:10pm  

"It’s the Farrah hair isn’t it? Not very intimidating. _Sigh_ I’ll have to work on that."

Wear one of those ninja hood thingies. One of my favorite kung fu movie gimmicks is when the kick-ass ninja dressed all in black with the head-covering and everything takes off the hood and, hey, surprise, it's really a chick.

339   SQT15   2005 Oct 20, 4:10pm

I'm all about anything with a good fight scene. I loved "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon", but I'll also get into movies like "The Transporter."

What's sad is the kids who are studying martial arts today don't know anything about Bruce Lee. I had a kid ask me if Bruce Lee could actually do all "that stuff" of was he just acting. Sacrilege.

340   Peter P   2005 Oct 20, 4:11pm

Ok, policy accommodation can be removed at a pace that is likely to be measured.
