With my CultureGrrl Donor total standing at a robust 98 last Friday, I blithely expressed optimism about achieving my goal of 100 contributions by the end of 2009. To clinch it, I threw in the resistible offer of an autographed copy of my Knopf-published book on art collecting, as a bonus for Number 100.
Who wants that out-of-date, out-of-print book, anyway?
Not you. After an immediate benefaction by CultureGrrl Donor 99 from Hampstead, Quebec (my warm thanks go out to her!), everyone hit the stores and the eggnog.
Wait a minute! I just checked my utility closet. Look what I found:
For a sizable corporate donation, this blog will be pleased to follow the bold footsteps of the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis, designating Swiffer as CultureGrrl‘s “Official Cleaner.” (That said, I don’t own a Chihuly and I won’t swiff the art that I do own.)
I hope you know that I’m just kidding about the cleaner (although enlightened sponsorship would be nice).
One thing that I’m not kidding about: Have a great holiday, Art-lings!
