interlude

For now i will give you my thoughts on the following:

-Waiting to transfer your CC$ till after a low intro APR offer lapses is a bad idea. It's just going to cost you more money all around.
-Make sure your tank is full and your tires are properly inflated before a roadtrip. It helps to save gas. and keeps you from almost running out 5 miles before the starbucks you're trying to get to so you don't have to call your friend who is ahead of you and ask how many miles before the next gas station.
- Wd-40 can solve almost anything. like that squeak in the back right corner of my car that was driving me crazy. totally gone!
-When trying to fly a kite at the beach make sure there is actually a breeze and that whoever you bring with you isn't allergic to the sun or paranoid about her purse getting stolen.
-Taking magazines from the reception areas IS fun.
- Make friends with the tech guys. They can install wonderful things. Like the "watchnow" feature on netflix. Which by the way, so awesome- recently watched: Who the (#*$@( is Jackson Pollock. Lovely documentary, good commentary on the game of art and why what is worth so $$much.

Well, good job for at least trying to fly the kite. And hooray for fixing the mystery squeak.

So did the Jackson Pollock movie tell the non-crazy how to make money with their art? Just wondering.

NCFA: no of course not! it basically said the art establishment might very well be a bunch of conmen. It was a good time movie. This woman, at the time 60 something. Bought a painting to cheer up her friend for $5. An art teacher said it might be real... and so the 15+ year saga began to get it authenticated. And she thought it was a piece of shit to begin with, but when you're standing on principle... that's priceless.

K: credit card balance. yes indeed.
