Clumsy Billionaire Ruins A Picasso!
-
Las Vegas gambling kingpin Steve Wynn was showing off a Picasso in his
possession, which he was planning on selling for $139 million -- that is, until he poked
his elbow through the canvas.
The
other day I scratched my car. The parking structure in my apartment
has a narrow driveway, and I scratched the paint turning a sharp
corner. That sucked. It'll probably cost a pretty penny to fix.
However, there are a few things I'm grateful for:
1) My car is not worth $139 million dollars.
2) My car is not a work by Picasso, arguably the most important artist of the modern era.
3)
Did I mention that some Las Vegas tycoon idiot put his elbow through a
Picasso? That's really funny. I'm glad it wasn't me!
If I ever
got a Picasso, the first thing I'd do is put it on the top shelf of my
closet. That's the problem with the rich: they think they're too good
for closets.
