I’ve thought that it would be a very cool thing to have a little ultra-modern glass and steel cottage out in the woods, someplace to go to get away from it all, but architecturally odd to make it a special place.
Apparently it’s not a good idea:

This message came across the campus listserve yesterday. It’s marginally entertaining to read.
Subject: Steve Miller’s Missing Art from Mem
Hello Wonderful Whitman Community,It has come to my attention this afternoon that one of Steve Miller’s art pieces has been taken from it’s perch on the 3rd floor of Memorial Hall. The piece is a Starbucks paper coffee cup with the lid attached. Miller applied paint directly to the surface. He created it to resemble his prints and to complement the ceramics in his current show up in Mem. If any of you have seen anything like this around campus, would you let me know?
Thank You So Much,
Anybody want to put a bet down that someone saw a Starbucks cup with paint on it, said “Why didn’t someone throw this away?”, and then tossed it in the trash? I’ve made up my mind now that the art must have been bad. If it were good art, someone would have given it a second look. Bad art isn’t worth looking at once.
Actually, it kind of makes me want to go to Starbucks, get an extra cup, sign my name on the bottom of the cup, and then put it on a ledge in Mem near where this other art was. When that gets thrown out, I can at least claim that I captured the true essence of our throwaway culture when even art becomes throwaway. (Haha, or just make up some shit like that.)
I’m sitting in the airport, waiting to catch my weekly flight to Walla Walla and the airport is completely overrun with high school (?) age girls wearing US Ice Skating jackets.
Just so you know, blue eyeshadow is apparently really in among high school age girls.
Best body building suppliment ever!
Ooh, trackbacks.
Anyway, since I’m raising a girl myself, I thought this was exceptionally funny.
