bp- wow people have a lot to say about spelling
you know what? forget what i said. i was talking about people who in earnest
sneer on the shorthand and misspellings that occur naturally in these kind of
environments
if you truly find them charming then i will take your word for it... it's been
so long that charming has been used as a euphemism for naive or something worse
that i bristle at the sight of it... perhaps unfairly

Behavior, Aura
If Joseph Beuys successfully displaced the "aura" from artwork to artist, does
this mean the behavior and characteristics of the artist are more important
than the thoughts or production?

When I sing, I sing of pretty horses. When I dance, I dance to tunes from far
away houses. Dog shit.
