That is so great, and notice the spider was smiling, so it was all with good humor. :rofl:

Someone should pay that bill for him.

Not for charity, or because he can't

But for comedy.

It would make his drawing an acceptable form of payment.

Making the whole money system, in that case, wrong! LOL

wait, I know, its only a couple hundred, I am going to try and send him the money. That is priceless. Hope it is possible to find who he is.

:rofl:

Update, it looks like he put the spider on an ebay auction.

7. EVEN BETTER IDEA:

Dear Ms. Jane Giles,

I represent a renowned international collector of contemporary American fine art. It has come to my attention that your firm at one time was in possession of a much-sought-after original work, titled "Spider With Eight Legs," by contemporary artist David Thorne. My client is willing to purchase that piece for the sum of $233.95, if you could manage to have Mr. Thorne email it back to you.

In addition, I understand that you have been in possession of a very rare earlier work, "Spider With Seven Legs," by the same artist. We would be extremely interested in purchasing this piece as well, if you would be so kind as to have Mr. Thorne send it back to you.

We look forward to your prompt reply.
