To be clear - I like some of Maria's art and I consider myself a bit of a pretentious art snob, but go yourself and walk around any city of any size worthy of its two Wal-marts

"To be clear" - I've got to hand it to you, themilum, that's a good opening - but in spite of the fact that there is nothing awfully clear about anything you say, at least to a terrestrial observer, I almost get it.

That's what really shakes me up, themilum, I almost get it.

Are you a man or a woman?

If you're a woman, I think you're kinda cute. [You are definitely 'way out there' -- and that can be cute in a woman.]

If you're a man, I would like to introduce you to tsuwm, or maybe etaoin. I think you guys would hit it off -juxtapositionally, that is.

We don't "wack" people any more, we "finish" them.

It's a matter of professional courtesy.

In our line of work, we could get finished ourselves before we finish the job.

Sunday Chicago Tribune, 17 October: "Iz eet stil art iph its speld incorectlee?" City manager has convinced Maria to correct it. Maria, "I really want people to see the work's meaning so they stop making issues of things that are unimportant." Corrections will be made when "the issue cool(s) down. I'm not racing out there right away ..."
