    I wonder how much money his estate (i.e., his greedy relatives) is getting for the Mountain Dew parody ad?

    I remember passing it by, but I never watched it. I guess I prefer my trees less happy.

    I’ve done a couple of the painting from his show. They aren’t good but I think that’s more of a me problem

    I watch The Joy of Painting a lot with my little ones. They like it for about half the episode and then lose their focus. Great way for them to get a little screen time and then be done with it.

    I have always liked your avatar, Baumeister. It reminds me of Camus. :)

    Bob Ross was great for what he was: a performance artist for stoned teenagers.
