Should that have been "The Judge's Horse"?

Either way, it's atrocious.

What's working?

The comments made here are ignored, for all practical purposes. His shots
continue without even token respect for the time some of us have taken to
comment.
Miguel is an intelligent professional who should be able to understand. I
strongly suspect that his training and background in consistency, which is
sometimes a good quality for an accountant, is antithetical to creative art
and acceptance of change.

The following anecdote will illustrate my point. I was in a car with an
accountant. There was several inches of snow on the roof of his car and he
had the heat turned way up. When I asked him why it was so hot he stated
that he liked to drive with the sun roof open in cold weather and wanted to
stay warm. We came to a red light, I opened his sunroof and we both were
covered with the results of my expected mini blizzard. He never understood
my point.

If I start to see at least consideration of the expressed comments, I will
also comment. Otherwise, why bother. YMMV

A valid assumption. See my comment below.

It's not for sale. I bought it together with a bridge in Brooklyn.

Hmm.... "misguided" ... after having been "guided", for ... what? Three
years or more now?

Who's "misguided"??

There's a reason some people once came up with the phrases, "you can't make
a silk-purse out of a sow's ear", or "casting pearls before swine".

They are what they are, they is what they is, expect no more than
that--ever. And don't be fooled by the stopped clock that is correct twice
a day either. Judge their viability on the rest of the day.
