Chris Burden's Bad Hair Cut

Am I the only one that has noticed Chris Burden's very bad haircut? How come no one has said anything? How come my columnist hasn't ragged on it? Finally, today, was the last straw (no pun intended). There it was, in the LA Times. Those short little bangs, straight across (sort of) his forehead. Doesn't Nancy notice? Why doesn't she say something? I often wonder, when something as noxious as halitosis for instance, how does their partner tolerate it?

I realize he's a genius, but that's no excuse. Actually it sounds like a great punk band name: Chris Burden's Bad Haircut. Also, while we're on the subject of the LA Times, early in the story, Burden is 70 years old (that did raise my eyebrows). Then later, he is 63. I then looked at his picture, to determine which it might be. Was he 63 or 70? It was hard to tell. The bowl haircut threw me off. I kept thinking of Jethro Clampett. Even a slight part to a side would be an enormous improvement.

Other than Chris Burden's Bad Haircut Day, the new (old) show for MOCA's 30th anniversary might be something to look forward to. And the prices at Sotheby's were astonishing, which needs a bit more attention, but I'll leave that to someone better with numbers. Right now, I'm deeply concerned about Chris.
