Montains out of molehills.

Another fun night at Price Addition Planetary Souk.

It was by far the busiest Saturday we've had in weeks, and of course we were shorthanded. I was first cashier and had a line for most of the day. Despite this, people were mostly understanding and in a good mood. The beautiful weather we've been having might have something to do with this.

But onward.

I'm dealing with a mini-rush. Most of the crew is dealing with a furniture load-out in the back, so I'm pretty much on my on. That's when two guy walk up behind me.
East side! )

But I know what I like.

You Call That Art?

People got very excited about Christo's latest public art work, "The Gates," in New York's Central Park. For two week's 7,500 metal gates draped with orange fabric were staked along 23 miles of the park's footpaths. Some people called "The Gates" a masterpiece. Others called it an ugly nuisance.

The best part of the article is where they took reproductions of masterpieces, and placed them alongside "non-art".. framed bits of fabric they got from a discount store, paintings by elephants and four year olds, and had people, both art critics and the general public judge them. The results? The art world is full of crap.

Go read that. Notice where the job is located.

Now notice what section of craigslist.org this is on. The section reserved for the South Bay. As in, southern end of San Francisco Bay.
