A woman walked into a bank in New York City, and she told the banker that she wanted a loan for $5,000

so she could go to Europe.

And a banker said, well, we're going to have to have some

sort of collateral. And she said, that's no problem. So she handed him the keys and the title

to a Rolls-Royce. And he thought that was a little bit suspicious, so he went ahead and did a background

check and a credit check. And it turned out everything was on the up and up and it was her car. So he goes ahead and gives her to $5,000 and she leaves.

And a week later she comes back and she says, I'm ready to pay off my debt and get my car back.

He said, well, that'd be $5,000 plus $5 interest.

She says that's no problem.

So she gave him all of the money. And before she left, the banker said,

ma'am, I don't want to be forward,

but it's obviously that you're a very wealthy woman.

I don't understand why you had to borrow $5,000 to take a trip to Europe.

She said that's a pretty good question.

Where else in New York City can I pay $5 to park a Rolls-Royce for a week and expect it to be there when I get back?

This is a personal journal.

This is a bit of an experiment.

I like to say right up front that I haven't the slightest idea what I'm doing, but I decided to do it anyway.

This show was founded with the idea that there are only two people in art that matter.

There's the creative individual and the person experiencing it.
