DUMB ART JOKE
This was an entry, not a commentary.
I'm sorry George. I realized that was an entry, but in assembling the list it got cut out accidentally. I've readded it.
Thanks,

My vote: V I'd rather be famous.
That on the back bumper of my car would be a powerful statement.
EW, I'm going to vote later when I've had a chance to think more about the entries. But it occurs to me that you should just print them ALL up and sell them. Does your gallery have a giftshop?
Q , OO.
B, U
V, W
NN, hands down.
yes Bill's is my top choice (NN), and my second- im proud of my feeble attempt (N) . I mean, Pollock KILLED someone riding in his car that fateful day!
But what do i know? I come from a town where a local theatre had to change its marquee from "Viagina Monologues" to "HooHaa Monologues " after an old lady complained.. i kid u not!
Mark, you should check out this funny and thorough post on the "HooHaa Monologues" on Obsidian Wings.

All were fun.
I know it's too late, but I just thought of another one:
my other car is a Chamberlain
NN PP
NN, definitely.
...and can someone explain the ghost of David Smith joke to me?
First vote:
00#
2nd explain:
UM, the first reads two words/phrases: red art and retard as in slow down and taillights. Has to do with light, conceptual, and minimal, but I guess it failed.
.
1. NN
2. PP
OO all the way.
Wish I would have done one other day.
I'd have done...

Guess that NN is winning. It's a funny one !
I like the Ceci n est pas une Voiture, too.
I don't like OO though I think it's a very good pun: I just don't agree with the sentance.
Cheers,
