If the owner can sell this place, they could move to NW Florida & get a nice beachfront condo & have cash to spare.

I like the late 50's - early 60's VW bug.

 

Yeah, it's insane.  I just did a search for my town you could get a 4600 sqft house and still have money left to fix up the bug.

Judging by the rear window and bumper it is either a 1966 or a 1967 VW.  Maybe it is included!

Salvatore is following Frank Zappa'a suggestion. “It’s not getting any smarter out there. You have to come to terms with stupidity and make it work for you,” Frank Zappa.

Just don't eat the yellow snow.


Zappa was a fascinating guy. I was never a huge fan of his avant garde style but the musicianship was top notch and he was definitely a master composer.

 

I also have a great deal of admiration for his determination to do what he liked with total disregard for commercial success. The “no commercial potential” project did pretty well with ‘We’re Only in it for the Money” and “Lumpy Gravy”, etc.

 

I’d love to be intelligent enough to successfully satirize the left & right like he did.

UPDATE:

 

A Florida Man Is Threatening to Sue an Artist Whose Invisible Sculpture Sold for $18,000, Saying He Came Up With the Idea First

 

“All I can say personally is that Nothing is very important to me,” Miller told Artnet News in an email. “I should be credited with Nothing (specifically the idea of Nothing fashioned into sculpture form), and Gainesville, Florida—not Italy—is where Nothing happened first.”
