Why one would watch Oprah in the first place confounds me :confused:

it is a lady thing.

Ah. The first time I ever saw a talk show, it was Ricki Lake. I've avoided them since (except for the occasional Springer :evil: )

[QUOTE=Lewd]Just throwing my opinion out here about art, but seriously...most modern art nowadays could be done by a mentally challenged 4 year old who has some kind of hand disease.

Observe: [url=http://students.washington.edu/erikmax/images/Abstract%20from%20Brussels%20modern%20art%202.jpg]Abstract Art[/url]

EDIT: But, I have respect for the older artists such as Dali. However, he may have been a bit...insane? But alas, genius and insanity are so intertwined.[/QUOTE]

Abstract art and surreal art are not the same thing. Dali and Picasso actually had the technical skill necessary to make beautiful, realistic works of art. They just chose to invoke emotions instead. Sort of like many Mike Patton projects.

Interpol rocked Orlando tonight although Q and not U left me unimpressed.

Well, in the context of my degree it seemed pretty darned useless to me. I still fail to understand why it was compulsory for me to do a statistics subject in my engineering degree.

denboy 03-21-2005 01:01 AM

It's pretty irrelevant for my degree too.. But it's compulsory for us to take it too :upset:

Going back to surrealists, has anyone seen much by Yves Tanguy? He's amazing, my father got me into him.

I absolutely cannot believe you just made that comparison.

Everyone's being such an art elitist in this here recently.

As a person with a degree in statistics and an engineer, I know that the use of statistical modeling is critical to a job as an engineer, and that is why a course in statistics is required for the major.

The Ashtray Girl 03-21-2005 12:50 PM

what does that mean? You'll have to explain; I don't listen to many Mike Patton projects actually.

[QUOTE=YDload]what does that mean? You'll have to explain; I don't listen to many Mike Patton projects actually.[/QUOTE]I actually didn't see anything wrong with that comparison, but obviously my opinion is wrong as I'm not one of the select elite.

On a lighter note:

Roxy Music is reuniting with Eno. :D

Well_Respected_Man 03-21-2005 05:35 PM

What's that Mircophones song with the crazy lady singer, I need it now!

el doctor 03-21-2005 06:10 PM

There's female vocals in "Map". Not sure if that's the song you're talking about though.

She's talking about eatting PB & J with Stalin and St. Peter.
