I clicked through the channels and found Bob Ross. He had just started a painting. I got so into it I forgot where I was. I saw some people coming but had no time to change it. When they say what i was watching they got so excited and ended up turning him on in their offices. Word spread and I soon had a crowd in the lunch room watching good 'ole Bobby. May he rest in Peace! and in his paintings. So yesterday at work i found myself alone in the lunchroom with control over the TV controller. I clicked through the channels and found Bob Ross.

Being the resident Alaskan on your comment board I must state some facts. <br/>1) Alaska is very intense. I don't meet too many normal, calm people, they are all crazy about what they do. INTENSE Jesus Worshippers, INTENSE spandex pants on men, INTENSE Subaru fans, and INTENSE potheads if that is possible. <br/>2)"God was having a good day when He made Alaska." God obviously overlooked putting decent men in Alaska. He was too busy making mountains and moose and such. Although, I was born here, so I will give God credit for a good score there. :o)<br/>3) I can only guess what Saskia and your debate is about, but being that Saskia has ties to Texas I will state the truth about the size debate that Texans can't accept. Alaska IS far larger than Texas, and I think we have the northern most point in North America as well. <br/><br/>PS - I'm concerned that your family might have had your sister locked up in the basement for the duration of the 80's & 90's. Who doesn't know these pop culture facts?!?!?! Hmmm, all this talk of Alaska has me thinking you are trying to hypnotize me into coming to your party.

Was it just the fatigue? Hardly. As a painter myself, I can appreciate the vitality Bob brought to each painting. No, I don’t do a whole lot of nature landscapes…okay, I have never done a nature landscape, but Bob did. And Bob taught others how to do what he did, day after happy day.

Now.

His paintings were intense in the natural beauty and emotion they portrayed. Amazing how something like that can come out of someone's mind and cover a blank canvas. I never knew his name, though. Thanks for the enlightenment. I used to watch Bob Ross paint on PBS (or was it TVO?) when I was a kid. His paintings were intense in the natural beauty and emotion they portrayed.

Oh Marty McFly would be so disapointed.
