I wrote:
"Instead of diplomas, I suggest the UI start passing out prints of "Dogs
Playing Poker." They can buy them for five bucks, framed, from the "Art"
bin at Tidyman's; right there, sandwiched between the Walter Keenes and t=
he
Thomas Kinkeades (TM). Without the opportunity to take art history,
graduates won't know the difference, and we'll have preserved in amber Go=
lf
Management for the Ages."
And Rob corrected:
Just on a side note, the name of the painting to which you refer is "A
Friend in Need," by Cassius Marcellus Coolidge. If you look closely, you'=
ll
see the dog in the left foreground reaching out to accept a card under th=
e
table from the dog on the right foreground ... oh, no! They're cheating!
As we can see from Rob's superior knowledge of Art History, he is a stude=
nt at WSU and not the UI.
Now, when is someone going to weigh in with a comment on my ingenious use=
of quotations from the movie Caddyshack? Or is Film History the next co=
urse to go?
"Do you want to tie me up with your ties, Ty?"
