The joy of painting
Non-Beer Discussion by FLASHPRO
Who remembers Bob Ross? I remember as a kid I'd be flipping channels on TV, and whenever I landed on PBS with this guy it was like you were trapped by his nutty calm techniques. "Let's put a happy little tree here." LOL. Maybe Osama would have turned out differently if he tried painting! [img]http://www.beerpal.com/pics/fun/paint.jpg[/img]

I still see his show pop up every once in a while on PBS and I still say to myself at the end, "That's fucking amazing! How did he make it look like that?"

I despise the Three Stooges, so that probably explains why Bob Ross does NOTHING for me. I'm convinced this is a MAJOR difference between men & women. I don't know very many chicks that get into the whole Three Stooges thing, so there's probably not many gals digging on Bob Ross, either.

That's okay. We have the Three Stooges and Bob Ross. You have Oprah Winfrey and Dr. Phil. We win.
