Dear New York painter friends,
There is a job for a painter with an MFA. UCRiverside, Art dept, tenure-track yadda yadda, the whole deal. I think it's for next fall, can't remember. Sounds cush. And you wouldn't have to live out there, you could commute from Smell-A. Our other friend, who is a great lady and who would be your cool commrade, has done it for yearz.
Imagine if you will in your mind's eye living in the same neighborhood as Team Shredder, possibly in the same apartment building. This alone would make it worth it to give up all the glory and oppurtunity for an artist in NY. You could have a MAD succulent jardin. This is no small potatoes, just ask gree c. The emotional rewards of a succulent collection are too many to list here. Speaking of emotional rewards, I can personally testify about the greatness that once was the Casa Grande, our current apartment building where Sea Monkey once lived down the hall, and where our other friend Harrison once lived down the other hall. Those were the glory days like none other. Speaking of glory days like none other, you could also surf with Team Shredder. Like at Malibu and stuff.
Let that marinate in your little haid for a while, I know it's a lot to handle, it's like the truth to you.
