FILE THIS:
Dave Barry of Santa Rosa, CA sends us this:
Art collector Rene di Rosa has just bought a rather ``smashing'' new work
of art for the di Rosa Preserve in Napa, California's Carneros Valley. It's
a 60-foot-tall file cabinet (over five stories high!) filled with file
folders by San Francisco artist Samuel Yates.
Yates took a 1974 MG Midget car apart, then steamrolled every single piece
of the car as flat as Wile E. Coyote. Then he weighed each flattened piece
(in milligrams) and put each one in a labeled Ziploc bag. All the bags were
then put into the file folders, which fill the 60-foot tall cabinet.
Yates had to give di Rosa the car's DMV registration when he purchased the
work for an undisclosed amount.
Oh yes, the title of the work, which curator Richard Reisman hopes to
install by the end of June: ``Minuet in MG.'' Di Rosa Preserve, on the
Sonoma Highway 121, is open by appointment weekdays and Saturday mornings.

So this is what's happening to all of those missing British Cars in California!
