Well, good for you! After all, it's the art that counts. If you like it, that's what matters.

A month ago I visited the Gardner Museum in Boston to revisit the magnificence therein, but also to remind myself of one of the most selfish of acts ever, the theft from there. Such mortal arrogance to think that one should have those paintings over the rest of us as bequeathed by Mrs. Gardner.

Bastards.

If the thieves don't pay adequately in this life, rest assured, they'll pay in the next.

Do you ladies realize there is a new movie about the Gardner theft? It is called "Stolen."

It was in our area two weekends ago, but I just didn't have a chance to get there.

Let me know if you see it.
