Tickets will go on sale closer to the launch of the exhibition and can be purchased through the following URL: http://2f7.me/tw3s0. China Millennium Monument. RMB 66+.

Pink Contemporary Art Exhibition at JEN Beijing

If you’re headed for a pint at Beersmith, you might want to pop into the hotel lobby at JEN to check out their exhibition that is... well, pink!

Odd. I tell my wife the porn on my computer is art, and she won't stand for it. Nope, not at all. I do sumpin' wrong?

One is not viewing art if one's peniis is in one's hand. That, likely, is the point of your wife's remonstrance.

Let me tell ya all, whenever you puts an 'S ' and and a 'Z' together ya got yerself a Hungarian. Not that that bothers me; growin up me and Geza and Miklosz had many a grand time skinny dipping in the pond, so please don't missinterpret this as anti-Hungarian.

Didn't you hear? A couple of years back a mob of gate-crashing undocumented migrants were chanting "France belongs to everyone!" Besides, if a guy can identify as a woman, can't either of them identify as French?

Lately, I have been identifyining as a transmogrified toadstool. I fonking feel really disposseded , dissrespected and nullified, yes NULLIFIED. Someone recenctly referred to me as a `mushroom' I am `NOT A MUSHROOM, YOU GORDANG RACIST!! I am a gordang TOADSTOOL ! So I will continue my strugle for toadstool equivalency.

"My first day in Rome, I thought it a pity Michaelangelo had ever to die. By my third day, I thought it the greater pity I wasn't around to have seen him do it."---Mark Twain

The `it' is this sentence is known in logic as a `fuzzy word', in that the referent is unclear. Dig? Groovy!
