Me and Ross are tattoo friends. Phil took our picture; we were just hanging around in my studio [UPDATE: PHOTOS DELETED OUT OF CONCERN FOR ROSS'S PROFESSIONAL REPUTATION. --SM, 2011].

Is anything going on tonight? I don't want to do anything. This weather is making me literally ill. I wish I could be in Boston tonight. My baby, a museum studies grad student at Brandeis, is organizing the opposition demonstration/exhibition to protest the extremely shortsighted, ill-advised and unethical decision by Brandeis University to close their prized little modernist gem of a museum, the Rose, and sell off the permanent collection. The world is turning upside down. If your liberal arts university has an internationally recognized and coveted modern art collection, you don't jump at the chance to liquidate at discount auction prices when the going gets a little rough. You just don't --even when Bernie Madoff jews you out of a multi-million dollar endowment.
