Got to go out and do a little junking on Sunday, and for once be
quite leisurely about it, which was delightful. The weather, all though
it started out pretty cold and breezy (and I was under dressed) warmed
up as the sun started peeking out, and it was a pleasant day to be out
there. I came around the corner and was face to face with yet another
episode being filmed of "Market Wars," a reality TV show (and I am using
the term 'reality' in the loosest way possible) that airs on the same
channel as Antiques Roadshow, that venerable dispenser of stories and completely accurate information about the old stuff we love.
Market Wars, in contrast, is completely ludicrous.
Since you asked:
to throw a perfume on the violet, to smooth the ice, or add another hue unto the rainbow, or with taper-light
to seek the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish, is wasteful and ridiculous excess."
~William Shakespeare, ca. 1595
Yup, that's us.
