Slog - Comments on Submitted for Jen's Approval http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/07/submitted_for_jens_approval_5 This week we're in Provincetown, Massachusetts. There's not much medium-sized-sculpture-garden sculpture here, but there are tons of galleries selling acres of oil paintings. Are any of them any good? I have no idea. But Jen should. This piece is currently in the window of the Alden Gallery on Commercial Street. Jen?...

Or more.

Cornball If Edward Hopper woke up one morning with an eye for a bad view and a substantial diminution of talent, he might have pooped out this excrescence.

I mean, I can imagine *someone* like this. But, then again, I'm listening to Barbra Streisand singing "Where Am I Going" and drinking a Manhattan. Sing it, Babs. Sing it.

Have some Portuguese sweetbread for me, yeah? I've been craving that shit for a month and have no idea how to find it out here.

She gets to let us look inside her brain as she looks at art.

It has helped me understand her critiques better, and at least it is more interesting to me than many other art posts.

Worst slog post series ever.

And such terrible self referential conversational writing - DAN, STOP!

Are any of them any good? I have no idea. But Jen should. Jen?

2)Grab the boyfriend.
3)Go hump in the dunes, but don't get caught; they've been busting people for that this year.
4)leave poor Jen alone; she has enough shitty Seattle art to deal with...

Mind you, the drilled oil paint would be sold to China and Japan - Americans wouldn't get any of it anyway, except the ultra rich top 0.1 percent of us.

P-Town is wonderful, although I still have PTSD from my experience 20-some years ago of attempting to drive my car down Commercial St in the summer.

At least this one reminds me of my granny.

That is why you bring a big towel, and plenty of baby wipes...
