Apparently, according to the BBC, billonaire Vegas tycoon Steve Wynn was about to sell the painting above for $139 million when he accidentally put his elbow right through the middle of it creating a hole the "size of a silver dollar" (whatever the hell that is- I'm no billionarie tycoon but my dollars come in paper these days). [BBC] Obviously it's off the market but that's not why I'm putting up this story. The more interesting bit is what Wynn said right after the snafoo occured:"Look what I've done. Thank goodness it was me."
Right so let's recap- he had $139 million and now he has something to hang over a urinal in the Bellagio that will double as a splash protector and a scribble board for advertising
To(a)mmy's Transvestite Peep show and all he has to say is "look what I've done?" You can bet the day I lose $139 million over my own idotic over-gesticulating I will not calmly laugh at the charming little surprises life brings me. But I guess that's why Steve Wynn is a billionaire and I have $8 in my bank account.
