Topic: I wish I were rich.

I'd get a big canvas and slop and splatter paint all over it, then hang it over my fireplace and tell people it was an original Jackson Pollack that I bought for $60 million at Sotheby's and watch them ooh and aah over it.

I wish I am rich
that is to say, rich in the present tense instead of the past tense

Back in my married days so long ago. My wife got her BA at UCLA and both of us attended a little known Uni on east coast selected courses only cause Hughes Malibu Research labs paid all costs in total including housing food and incidentals. I admit to taking a light load with Physics and Irwin Jacobs communications courses and auditing a few others. School is most famous for Engineering n Physics but it also had or may still have a huge Art program that kept my wife most happy. I wish I could do more than stick figures on a presentation board but my Dyslexia makes more not possible other then for Wife's projects I did help with motor driving contraptions for conception art.

Frankly Jackson Pollack drips and drabs has always left me COLD

Give me Picasso and Miro any day
