I read something by John Ringo (on Pokemon Go!, don't ask) and he talked about how he was prescribed meds for bi-polar (I think.) He evidently does not take them. He said that if he did, it 'interfered with the muse.'
I look at Van Gogh and it always makes me think of Mel Gibson, another artist who seems to have more than a few demons.

Posted by: TN Volunteer at December 09, 2016 09:51 AM (SmCFT)
I had been thinking of suggesting The Pieta, David, or Moses to CBD for some of the art threads, but they are pretty universally known.
There was a statue I saw at an art museum that was really strange one time. It was a statue of Hercules, but it was the most extreme version of hypertrophy I have ever seen in art, almost like the sculptor was trying to make a critique on renaissance realism. Interesting piece, if slightly disturbing.

Yeah. Even a doodle by Van Gogh would be more interesting and show more technical skill than most contemporary artwork.
I've been to the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam. His works have a visual impact in person that just isn't the same when you see a reproduction. That's true of any great artist's work, I guess.
That's one reason I'm very nervous about the Muzzie invasion of European. All that priceless artwork and all those barbarians. Would anybody be surprised if a bomb went off in the Louvre?
The Euro elite who seem completely uninterested in safeguarding not only their people but their own cultural treasures should be put in the stocks and pelted with eggs and rotten veggies for being so feckless.

Lerner has been sued personally by True the Vote. Reading the
comments, there is the usual Liberal Troll argument that such a suit
can't proceed because of immunity for official actions - but that gets
nuked by another post that points out that there is a law which does
allow it for actions exactly like those taken by Lerner.
Each of
us needs to personally sue the henchmen to Obama. People ask "What can I
do - I'm just a little guy." This is something that we can do.
Lets
start with filing our own suits against Lerner. Do not allow these
suits to be rolled into a class action - make her defend all of them
individually. Everyone who either joined a TEA party organization - or
who wanted to - but was stopped or intimidated because of Lerner's
action has standing
to sue. Sue both for actual damages and punitive damages. Remember - if
she doesn't defend herself against your suit - you win by default.
These
are civil suits - not a criminal actions - you don't have to prove
beyond a reasonable doubt - you only need a preponderance of the
evidence to prevail. The fact that Lerner pleaded the fifth before
Congress is admissible in a civil suit. The Inspector General's report is
admissible in a civil suit. Obama's initial statements
against the IRS are admissible. This gives you the overwhelming
preponderance of the evidence - and there is no denying any of it. This
kind of suit is as close to a slam dunk as it gets.
I'm going to sue for one dollar in actual damages, and one billion dollars in punitive damages.

One little problem, they announced the march and got other feminists excited about it before it occurred to them they might need a permit. And of course, by the time they applied for a permit (about a week after announcing the march) they learned that they would not be able to get a permit for any space anywhere near the Lincoln Memorial or the White House because of post-inauguration take-down and other events. But instead of telling people, "Oops, looks like we won't be able to hold this march," they told anyone who asked, "We've applied for a permit and we have no reason to think we won't get it."
So now it's become very clear that they won't have a permit and they're trying to blame the eeeeevil Trump inaugural committee and the National Parks Service, which everybody knows is the one government agency that is peopled with the alt-right. And shrieking feminist harpies are calling the NPS permit office and screaming at anyone who answers the phone.
Come one, feminists. Think about it for one minute. Obviously the inaugural committee would have applied for permits blocking off most areas long before the election. It takes a long time to set up for the inauguration and a long time to take it down. But feminists were never much on thinking.

Say, Hello, my name is (State Your Name) and so and so, an acquaintance of mine from church, gave me your number because she thought we might enjoy each others company.

They want control for everyone else. They want the government to shut us up and tell us what to do.
But they expect to waltz in and do whatever they want to do. The rules are for the little people, the deplorables.

Have you ever seen the painted corridors at The Summer Palace in Beijing? They long corridor view of this painting reminds me of them, not the artwork in anyway but the long corridor view. That artwork is the typical Chinese mural type painting but it is carried throughout the many corridors of the Palace.
It really is some spectacular stuff and has been recently been undergoing a lot of restoration. You might find it interesting if you haven't seen any of it.

If your three year old can produce a Van Gough copy you have a gold mine.
A Van Gough is instantly recognized by a unique style as are most masters. But you are right in that during his life , no one thought is stuff was good enough to purchase.
Admittedly, IMO this is probably his worst piece. Otherwise I'm a big fan of his work.

Posted by: What's a Seawolf? at December 09, 2016 09:49 AM (WuRdh)
Maybe I missed it, but do you have any indication that she knows that a co-worker is giving out her phone number? "Oh gosh, sure, if you know a nice guy, go ahead and give them my number" vs. "Who is this creep calling me like a bolt out of the blue" are rather different situations. It could be a nice lady who trusts her friend to help her find someone, or it could be a yenta who has made it her personal mission to hook up all of her single friends.
Posted by: hogmartin at December 09, 2016 10:17 AM (8nWyX)
Was along the lines of what I was thinking. For clarification, the woman who gave me the other's number/wants us to meet is a very sweet elderly lady who is super energetic for her age. This woman whose number I received works at the elderly woman's business and was apparently complaining how there aren't any nice guys to date.
Hence how the situation came about. I think I'm gonna go for the matchmaker brings us together to meet at a church function/similar event approach. More information is good.

The Summer Palace is actually more like a mini Kingdom built as a summer retreat for the last empress of China. It is an enormous place that even includes a man made lake patterned after a favorite lake in another region of China.
The whole place is covered with fantastic Chinese art including sculptures in many mediums, paintings, shrines, etc.. It really is breathtaking and would take at least a week to begin to see it all. Sadly, I only had a day but I'll never forget it.

Use a people search service to see if you can get her address off her phone number. Set up surveillance. Watch her routines, her habits, where she goes and when, who she associates with. Using the information you've gathered, stage a "chance" meeting at one of the places she visits routinely.

The bathrooms were labelled " formerly mens" and formerly women's" with a lot of fanfare and self- congratulatory signwork on the doors.
I would like to say that I went into the "firmerly women's" and left the lid up, but no.
Let's just say there was no urinal in the " formerly women's" shitter.
Over time, there will be complaints.

I've never seen or talked to this person.
Normally I'd just call, but that seems weird in this situation. So I text her...and say what?
I feel like it's a blind date without the date actually set up.

Heh. Some people are terrified of flying, and they overcome this with booze. A good friend of mine is like this. He absolutely HATES to fly. So he'd always get a drink at the airport bar before boarding, when he had to travel by plane. Note that he doesn't drink at all normally, so one drink is enough to calm him down a bit. Funny thing is, he recently got a job where he has to fly constantly. When he told me about it I was kinda stunned, knowing how much he abhorred airplanes. I said they must have offered him a TON of money for him to do that. "Yup." he said, with a big wide grin.

==================
Memory flooding back of my dating days (I'm 31, so not THAT long ago).
Similar situation. I was working at a place and a guy I worked with also worked at the University Bookstore. While working one day, this girl came in that he knew from the Bookstore. She was cute. I talked to the guy after she left, and he was very encouraging in me trying to pursue her, so I decided to drop by the bookstore on day.
Both were there. I went to the guy to talk and he introduced me. She was polite, but completely uninterested. I managed to get a Facebook friend out of it, but I haven't spoken to her since that first meeting.
Cute girls get hit on all the time, and it's going to take more than just that random guy walking up to her. You need to be framed in a relationship context by someone else, and you have that opportunity. However, it's going to take that nice old lady to do that for you.

As a female, I would 1. not believe your story that her friend gave out her phone number 2. Be immediately on alert that my phone number had been hacked, stolen, whatever by some major creep up to no good, 3. possibly call the police.
I'm not joking. There are dipshit women out there who would not think anything of this, and there are those of us with some sense of danger and self defense training that would be on high alert right now.
You don't want to get involved with the first. If she is the second, you want to politely tell Ms. Busybody Matchmaker that you appreciate her help, but you would rather she introduce the two of you at some kind of function. One in which you can meet and see if there is anything of interest to either of you.
Just calling this women based on some women giving you her phone number makes you sound desperate for a lay and possibly a dangerous person.
This is a female perspective on this. I'm not 17 anymore and I suspect this lady isn't either. It's not HS.

When mom died the funeral director walked me up the church aisle to my seat in the front. He was attractive, had a nice body that looked good in his fine suit and may have been a possibility for me.

My guess is the extreme disappointment that Donald Trump won is only being matched by the fact that Trump's nominations thus far do not permit him to scream out "I told you he would betray you! I told you!"

I was innocently watching a woman undress in her house when she saw me. I smiled innocently enough but she screamed bloody murder.
Do you think my chances are good with her?

I like to encourage writing, so I'm going to take you a little more seriously than you probably intended.
Start with an outline. Just bang out a 1 page overview of a main character or two, and the basic plot mechanics.
You could probably do that in half an hour. Maybe you can find some time this weekend to do it.
Come to the book thread on Sunday and share.

Meanwhile, Stein has filed a lawsuit with the Michigan Supreme Court asking for a ruling in her favor to start the recount back up. However, since two of the Michigan Supreme Court judges were on Trump's list of candidates released this summer as potential US Supreme Court justice nominees, she wants both of them to recuse themselves.
Because liberals always recuse themselves from hearing cases they' ve been involved in. Right?

It's a Leave to Appeal, and the Michigan Supreme Court is pretty sparing about granting those.

They had to cook that one up to counter the support from Sir Charles and Shaq. (who both said they didn't vote for Trump, but we all should give him a chance.)
That mild nod of acceptance triggered the #fakenews event that occurred at an individual's house who just happens to be a high profile athlete.

She was an out of work hairdresser. But her father was a funeral home make-up artist. Her brothers were funeral home make-up artists. Her mother's father was a funeral home make-up artists. And she worked in her father's funeral home, doing tune-ups, lube jobs and even worked on a few trannies.

We're having a craptastic Christmas this year. Don't ask. But you are always welcome to come. Always. The Lake Geneva cruise line is running Santa cruises thru New Year's Day. We have season passes. It would be wonderful if you would join us. Of course you'd have to pay room and board.

Still, the shot of Spider-man swinging toward the screen next to Iron Man just got my inner geek doing back flips.

I hope this is far enough down the conversation chain that I am not assasinated, but: I hate Spiderman because he is a whiney little bitch. Hard for my kids to understand, but the whole Alda-type whining just sets me off.
Sorry for the rant, carry on (but I am a coward; so don't flame me bros).
