Earl’s reply: Everyone, from artist to athlete to author, gets in a slump once in awhile. What you need to do is go away for a couple of weeks, say to your sister’s house, and find your muse. Sure I will miss you terribly, but we have no right to deprive the world of your talent.
Actually, I think Earl was correct (even without his addendum). Art is subjective. I, for one, have never managed to appreciate the work of Jackson Pollock. So if asked, I would say Mr. Pollock lacks talent in my opinion. But my opinion doesn’t make it so. So well done, Earl, in either sense.

It is nice when Earl does something smart for a change. I guess even a blind squirrel can find a nut sometimes.

The sleep on the couch answer would be, “Can’t lose what you never had.”

I wonder how long that pause was, to wait for her to leave the room so he could “finish his sentence”?

What he’s really thinking is: “How could you possibly loose what you never had to begin with?”

At least Earl didn’t say “Your art makes your butt look big”. I’ll give him credit for that.

As the song writers would tell us, “It’s hard to lose what was never really yours…”
