ParticipantI met art siegelman in 1981 when I applied to art school, he was teaching in nyc pre maus. I wanted to be an artiste.
Participant[quote=FlyerInHi]I didn’t know the proverb but I translated it perfectly.
I’m the shit!Si jeunesse savait, si vieillesse pouvait.
Origine : Proverbe d’Henri II Estienne (1528-1598), Les Prémices (1594).http://thierryaymes.blogg.org/henri-estienne-1528-1598-c26580218%5B/quote%5D
Picasso pour ne pas répondre précipitamment à ces questions: « On devient jeune à soixante ans ».
ParticipantHuh.
I recall.
Maybe this is all brought on by the upcoming release of RUSTY BROWN by Chris ware. I preordered it months ago and it’s actually in my calendar. Rusty browns character is a pathetic manchild collector. All of Chris ware’s work is moving, but old rusty brown stuff was painful yet funny for me.
ParticipantMy 7th grade French teacher mrs haber had a sign on the class back wall in french which read
if youth but knew
If age but couldI thought it was the dumbest fucking thing. We all did. We thought Mrs haber was a weirdo. Old! 50? 55? Oh mrs haber, mrs haber I am sorry we mocked you in the bicentennial year
There was a girl in french named rhena i thought was so beautiful. Achingly belle just thinking of her name names e recalls how impossible it is that I could’ve not been a fool for love
In 1976 I loved comic books. But by 77 it was all over.
If I could do it all again id mess it up worse.
Ahhhhhh, if youth but knew
If age but could
ParticipantIf Greenland gets statehood how many electoral votes does it get
ParticipantOk, but why about the rest of Europe. I looks like rates are in the 2 perc. Range.
I’d like that.
ParticipantI’m more of a wabi sabi man myself. My wife got 25 points for an extremely crooked front tooth, like almost a 45 degree angle crowded mouth. I found it very attractive, kind of working class poor?
Later when we had money she got braces. I objected. Now its straight. I preferred it crooked.
Participant[quote=FlyerInHi]This is America and children are supervised.
I have lived abroad as a kid and I can tell you there is a good reason 60% of tech economy employees are foreign born — the percentage is even higher in California.[/quote]
But only recently. And it sucks
ParticipantUnless mortgage rates get to zero. Which they might.
ParticipantIf you can be wiped out by assisted living, you’re not wealthy. So yeah, a million is not rich.
ParticipantI told my wife if I had no mortgage I’d relax.
She did not believe this to be true.
She said I would find other reasons to be nervous
ParticipantTell that joke to peter strzok
ParticipantLtci is terrifying, depressing and maybe a RIP off now. Put it all together and who wouldnt want to live in denial. If you’re collecting, your life realllly sucks. You’re in need of way more than some help, you’re helpless, which is frightening, like being paralyzed.
The thought of going broke spending money that yields so little pleasure. Yuck.
Maybe it’s best to be divorced and partition out assets, take a life estate in your home and feed to kids, all well in advance of your decline?
Must be planners who deal with this.
Man I hope I die. My tiny empire, crumbling to pay for help with my poop.
Participant[quote=temeculaguy]I notice a lot of the comments mention “I” as far as one’s wishes go. I pay the premiums because I am not going to tell my wife’s adult children that her alzheimers was too much so I decided to have her put down. I lost sleep for a month because I put a 14 year old terminally ill dog down, don’t ask me to do that to a person. We can all be brae about ourselves, but if you have a spouse, it changes the decisions making process.[/quote]
Ok, you sold me.
