Three works of art:
Cinematic art:I just got back from Sin City, which is great entertainment. Be warned, it’s incredibly violent, has casual nudity, and does not take place in our universe … but a comic book universe. Therefore, do not gripe to me about anything being “unrealistic.” Instead, watch it for the gorgeous piece of art that it is. They really captured the comic book style. If you didn’t like Kill Bill because of the blood, you will walk out of this one, probably nauseous. You have been warned.
Spam art: My spam filter caught this today. It really captures the whole spirit of the Nigerian scammer art form. It’s got it all. Mention of spam, for the postmodern flavor, typos and outright misspellings, an offer of large amounts of case, specifics on the death of the poor king. In case anyone is wondering, this is what spam looks like:

Life as Art: And then, the news from my home state. R.I. Police Say Man Offered Steak for Sex. Yes, indeedy, that’s the Woonsocket that I drive past on the way to the train station. Please feel free to make comments involving the colloquial sexual meaning of one’s “meat.”
