    "For many years, the French writer Guy de Maupassant insisted on eating lunch every day at the restaurant in the Eiffel Tower. The reason, he explained, was simple: the restaurant offered the only spot in Paris where he could look out and not have to see the Eiffel Tower."

    From an article in the New Statesman on the Whitney Museum.

    Towering example of Maupassantian irony.

    Looks like its just you and me today, Mat. Feels like we're a couple of rummies at some run down bar in the industrial part of town. Say something offensive so I can be offended. Give me something to do.

    If it helps any, the Taste Gendarmerie is keeping a close eye on these doings. We are, in effect, performing artists.

    Offensive? Shit fuck piss, man, I'm allergic to it.
