Are you a doctor...or did you mean patience?

Isn't it sad to see western influence seeping into indiginous art, just another example of our corrupting

Oh, that's nothing. Now if they dipped one of those melons in a bucket of urine and stuck a cross in it, then it would be ART.

One of them appears to depict a mosque, but at least none of them says, "Death to America."
