Field Trip

This is badly written, but the gist of it is that no one is visiting Man Ray's grave. What do you think, shall we have a field trip to Montparnasse? Man Ray deserves some props.

    Those unappreciative French bastards! At least his grave doesn't look like Jim Morrison's.

    Now, if he was buried out here in Hollywood, one of his old stomping grounds, his grave would receive proper visitation.

      Where is everybody?? I waited at the Montparnasse cemetery for hours and not one of you showed up! I had made cupcakes and martinis for each one of you, each cupcake lovingly adorned with a personalized replication of each of you at your most flattering sculpted in frosting.

      After three hours I got hungry and began eating the cupcakes. Just nibbles at first, then as more time passed I began swallowing entire cupcakes. Of course this made me thirsty so I washed them down with martinis. After a couple more blurry hours passed I attempted to make readymades out of the remaining cupcakes and toothpicks from the empty martini glasses. I decorated Man Ray's gravesite with the inspired masterpieces while singing Edith Piaf songs to Man Ray in his grave, my only companion. Right in the middle of "La Vie en Rose" the gendarmes surrounded me and shuffled me off to the local l'établissement pénitentiaire.

      I need bail now. Please send euros.

        Do cupcakes and martinis really mix Gnomey?
