Sorry it’s been so long since I updated. Busy you know. Sometimes life happens. I had to fix the brakes on my truck this week (had a hole in a brake line), that was just soooooo much fun. Actually it went quite well, especially after I figured out where the bleeder valve was, so that I could bleed them out, so that they’d actually stop the truck. Of course, it was rusted closed, but some WD40 took care of that. Now I can go places, and stop when I get there.

That is from the sidebar of the dead tree version of this article on John Marin.
The sidebar contains a lot of good stuff, and I wish they’d put that up on the site, also.
This time Charlie Rose interviews art critic/historian Robert Hughes.
