Genius indeed!

I think that many of the greats were certifiably insane, or at least gave that impression. Van Gogh sure was, Dali sure acted it. Michelangelo, well, it’s safe to say that he sure didn’t care a lot about a great many things.

This move mirrors those. If I were curator, I’d be torn on whether or not to remove the pieces. His actual paintings aren’t the art though like the ones next to them. But that painting in that spot is.

Very nifty. Very nifty indeed.

Holy crap. I have graphical smilies? I had no idea. WP is just full o’ surprises, isn’t it?

Halbie, it’s funny that you mention Kevin Smith. “Oh, that Bansky” is an homage to JaSBSB. If you’ve seen it a few times, you might recall the line to which I refer

Tobobo taking care of the fifth city? I guess that would cover our fourth time zone.

Well, we can at least do 4 cities - who can we get to pull the 5th? Tobobo?

I kept reading that as “Banky” and was wondering if this was some sort of Kevin Smith production.

If it ever gets down to it, I’ll help you hang your art. I propose a multi-city simultaneous attack. One dude in one museum is now officially played out. You got hit at least 5 museums in 5 cities at the same time. If you’re gonna do it, do it right!

I’m not sure what would be worthwhile enough to be “fit for a pro,” but he seems to always have good stuff to read. I’m not familiar enough with his site to know if it has always been lacking webdev material, but it is definitely a “lots of interesting stuff” blog and not a “webdev” one.

I am really curious how well his fund raising drive went. If he can blog full-time in NYC without spousal support, he must be doing something right. Yipes.

I like the credit: from Professional blogger…
Has he produced anything worthwhile since going pro?

Either way, funny story.
