Designer drugs, hookers, political campaigns, and assassinations immaculately guised as suicides for a start. That's what I would do if I was ever too rich.

I would be the coolest rich *******.

I also didn't say I'd get an island. You don't have to be that rich to buy art you uncultured swine.

I hear prices on moon bases are starting to go down. You might want to buy one up quick before... you know who start to move in, and drive the property value down even further.

Also, it's the images in the randomness that he didn't plan that make them great to look at. I see new stuff all the time.
Love this.

"When I am in a painting, I'm not aware of what I'm doing. It is only after a sort of 'get acquainted' period that I see what I have been about. I have no fears about making changes, destroying the image, etc, because the painting has a life of its own. I try to let it come through. It is only when I lose contact with the painting that the result is a mess. Otherwise there is pure harmony, an easy give and take, and the painting comes out well." - Jackson Pollock

I'm gonna start calling Batlord horizon. That's my day.

Well, that and being too freaking tired from staying up to watch the Blackhawks longest game in their team history.

Games like that are so freaking draining.

Day III of trying to help keep a company breathing from a home office. Very weird transition.

Well, I can walk to my old office in about 15 minutes so it's not like it was a hassle. I just miss being around other bodies. The dogs are cool but no matter how hard I've tried, they refuse to talk back.
