| Oh - I'm skeptical too. Esp. about the frogs. Plus I love it when "the Louvre in Paris" as if it shouldn't be confused with the one in Ames, Iowa - e.g. (LOL)
I hope I stressed the IF's strongly enough. I brought it over (a) because news is SO slow, (b) maybe someone will find something out, and (c) if he were to have a gallery showing - how cool would that be?!!
The only things we know: he plays and writes music - and he has a library of ~3,000 volumes. Some undoubtedly are rare.
It's possible that he paints - why not? Lots of people do, for fun. It's very relaxing!!!
p.s. I once visited Hyde Park in NY (FDR's residence) with my Mom ... they had an exhibit of paintings by Winston Churchill! He painted most of his adult life - even during WWII!!! The paintings were beautiful. So with all due respect to Mr. Occam or Ockham, anything is possible, esp. w/gifted, multi-faceted people.
BTW - I'd never heard of that "law" before - apparently from mathematics - the simplest answer is most often the correct one. Makes sense! Learned at least 1 new correct thing today ... thanks!!!  __________________ Avi by a former Albanian c. 1980s.  I wrote the pain down, got off and looked up. Looked into your eyes.
