art thief

The gallery was broken into last night. It doesn't look like anything
was taken - because nobody understands our art.
Altho, all of Aaron's pieces in the backspace are not there. I don't
know if they have been taken down or stolen.
This all reminds me of the time I had a show at WSU while in school.
Before the show was over I sneaked into the gallery with my brother
(we
had to scale a wall and dress in black while drinking beers) and
stole
all my art back. I thought it would get great attention. But nobody
noticed, but I didn't really complain.
I'm a dumb-ass.
I normally would just write this in the book - but, I figure its
kinda
"special". Maybe we can spread the word..."Do you hear
Gallery 114 was
broken into last night!"
"Holy fucking shit!"
"That's right, Holy fucking shit"

All the mailboxes were broken into as well. I talked to Tom Walsh
(our
building manager?) and he said that there is a "rash" of
check thieves
blanketing the city. Apparently they steal checks and use the
electronic check numbers to buy stuff on ebay or other internet
related
money laundering endeavors.

The door will be fixed today.

So, I do believe Paul was sitting yesterday. Paul doesn't have a
computer or email so I will call him to see if he left any checks in
the out going gallery 114 mailbox. Highly unlikely.

Its pretty cool - I can pick up a wireless internet signal on my
laptop
down here in the gallery basement. I think its coming from Starbucks.
Actually, I figured out a way to "tap" into Starbuck's
corporate
network and "steal" a internet signal for us.
Just one more thing that the Odanrot selflessly and tirelessly
contributes to the community of 114.

In return for my efforts I DEMAND someone bring my a rum and tonic.

with a lime.
maybe you should bring 13 of them.
and a plan ticket to mexico.

peace,
rot
