Because there's no such thing as too much cheese. Unrolling the braciole of consciousness; shaping the meatball of life. Because everything is funny; you just need to view it from the proper angle. Good for cats. Made in Poland. Because everything is like a hat. You know how those gorillas can be... Very unforgiving.

My beloved New York Post has let me down -- adding a "free registration" requirement before you can read articles online. So I won't link to it, but I'll relate here an article in today's paper that is particularly relevant to my recent blog posts. A Queens art museum (!) is having some trouble with its latest installation "Celebrity Hot Tub for Kofi Annan" -- an exhibit "which features a rotting sausage stewing in a tub of noxious water."

Yup, we've been outdone again:
The sculpture is a full-sized jacuzzi fashioned from cardboard, loaded with capocollo, and left to ferment.
I pointed this out to Vito and he immediately decided that he too needs to be an artist too. He envisioned a series of photographs -- people doing everyday things wearing watermelons as hats. Business meetings. Movie lines. Church services. Everone wearing watermelon hats.

But is it stinky enough to be art?
