Nobody steals, they borrow without permission.

I wouldn't agree with stealing, and I know you don't either, but perhaps the old saying "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery" is more what you meant. I in no way condone stealing or forgery, but taking inspiration from another artist is acceptable.lisab said:In art, stealing is equivalent to paying homage.

I have thrown away old paint drop cloths that could have been $25 million dollar Pollock's. Actually, I believe that was his first 'discovered' piece of art, the millionairess that became his patron mistook the old drop cloth in his studio for an intentional work and he was too embarrassed to correct her.
Don't start telling me how great he is, I'm kidding, but then again, maybe not. :tongue:

Borg said:I usually drive 5 to 10 over the speed limit. But, when I get tailgated like today, I go exactly the speed limit.
I don't remember where it was but I remember a thread once where someone was whining about the car in front of them spraying their freshly washed car with windshield washer overspray. I wrote that the only time that I'm ever that inconsiderate is when the person behind me is tailgating. While that post got a lot of comments and laughter, the OP never responded.leroyjenkens said:I just take my foot off the gas and see how slow the tailgater wants to go. That's a huge pet peeve of mine. Tailgating me is very counter-productive.
I do the same to people who are behind me with their brights on.
There's a lot of traffic related things that are my pet peeves. So many people just have no sense of manners on the road. They may be nice people in person, but in a car, somehow they don't realize what they're doing is completely rude and/or dangerous.

I was just looking at an old cookbook from the 1970's, curry was "fashionable" and a recipe for chicken curry was just chicken mixed with creamed onions and "add 1/2 teaspoon" of curry powder. That's it, nothing else, not even a hint at what was in the "curry powder". Did I mentioned the chicken was from a jar? I've never seen a jar of chicken, I've seen canned.HomogenousCow said:This better be the best curry ever made by man.

Any subsequent post on the subject in this thread will end with an infraction.
It has been discussed to death on the forum in the past. Sadly, it attracts crackpots that don't understand math at atll.

Ripley said:I tried a new cheap curry recipe recently that was made from bananas and used English tea instead of stock. The mix of spices was ok but on a whole it was vile.
I don't watch much tv but I'm feeling rather sad that I've finished all my (current) favorite series. Guess I'll have to clean the house whilst i procrastinate.
