I was really grateful that I am not the only one who thought it looked like a Christmas tree. Is it possible I am just not dirty enough?

That was a great video, I am curious as to how many times the word “butt plug” was said. I think the art is awesome, I’m really glad they ate it.

I like Paul McCarthy’s work, but what I like more is that much of his work really proves, “Art is anything you can get away with.” – Warhol

And how awesome are those giant turd balloons!?
“A giant inflatable dog turd created by the American artist Paul McCarthy was blown from its moorings at a Swiss museum, bringing down a power line and breaking a window before landing in the grounds of a children’s home.” – guardian.co.uk, Tuesday August 12 2008

I laugh every time I read that. Can you imagine the joy and delight and then possibly fear in the orphans eyes as the giant turd came hurling toward them. I Love Art!
