"Hey, what are you doing with that sign?"
"Don't know. Elevation has been cancelled."
"Oh not now, I've been up since 4:00 a.m."
"What are you doing back there?"
"Well, I built a dark room."
"You know, this whole cancel elevation business gave me an idea for a new show."
"Hey, that's great."

"Hmm"
"I know it's-- it's not the same, but--"
"Even when the bathroom line
isn't long, people still go in there to piss and vomit."
"- Well, I have to show my work--"
"Even in a bar that stinks
of piss and vomit?"
"Because that's what artists do."
