I suppose having a museum care for your rare and valuable artwork would probably alleviate a lot of fears of something happening to it
It's often on a plaque somewhere, "lovingly loaned by such and such".
Some are inter-generational, meaning grandma loaned it and it's still sitting in the museum.
I have seen those plaques before. Never known any of the folks named on them though
I need to find a better way to spend my time...
Lately, it ends up with me shopping for watches.
I don't need a watch. In fact, I gave my son a HUGE part of my watch collection - worth a ton of money. I don't even know how much, but it's easily five figures worth of watches that I gave him. It might even be in the six figure range.
In the past year, I've purchased at least 8 watches.
It ends up with me fucking around online and, before you know it, I'm browsing watches.
I also browse used DSLR options on auction sites. I have no idea why, but I'm bidding on a pretty sweet camera right now - over on eBay. I'm winning, of course.
LOL Yeah, you don't strike me as the kinda guy that hangs out with people who stuff things into museums.
I don't think Verle, Opie, or Chris have much that a museum wants.
Well, not that kinda museum...
Now, if it was a museum of bad decisions, Verle's motorized wheelchair and Opie's car might belong in it...
I'd go to a museum of bad decisions. Hell, I'd donate to that museum. I'm a 'friend of' several museums. One more won't hurt!
