The CMA

So on Sunday i dragged a handful of friends to the Cleveland Museum of Art to get some culture.
This is a new regularly scheduled event i think I'd like to do; go get some of that elusive culture.

So the Cleveland Museum of Art is one of the top art museums, and is my favorite based on the sole factor that it is free. It has recently been under MASSIVE renovations, and only has a portion of it's great galleries currently open (with several more scheduled to open every couple off months starting in June and leading until 2012). A nice factor is that their special exhibits (which usually have a nominal fee) have been increasingly cheaper or free during this construction phase.

So, a few things of note occurred during this trip.

(1) Nathan was quite impressed with armor being referred to as Maximilian in style based entirely on the fact that Maximilian was the ruler at the time... Thus, he opted to call everything he encountered that was created in his lifetime Finkbonian.

I assure you this did not get old. (Seriously ... this is a Finkbonian blog)

(2) I learned Jane likes modern art. Win.

(3) I also learned that Steve is an uncultured philistine. (Not Really)

(4) And lastly, Nathan, Steve, and I are apparently unable to get too much culture at any given time because the entire ride home we made multiple jackass statements, all in the RAGE-MINOTAUR voice.

But, you should all (you being Nick, and any unfortunate soul who stumbles upon this blog) go to the art museum and get your own culture.

  1. A) I hope Jane kicks you in the penis
    2) You post infrequently. Almost as infrequently as I do
    D) My father has a 5HP horizontal shaft motor for a go-cart. So instead of buying one, I suggest we make one. You can weld, right?
