"My Search for T. Rex"

By Rich Fisher

Tulsa, Oklahoma – On this installment of our program, we chat with the author, art commentator, and former art-gallery owner Richard Polsky, whose previous titles include "I Bought Andy Warhol" and "I Sold Andy Warhol (Too Soon)." Polsky's newest book, which we are discussing on today's ST, goes in a completely different direction, however; this book is called "Boneheads: My Search for T. Rex." In it, Polsky actually gets to live-out, as it were, one of his boyhood dreams --- namely, to earn a living (or, at least, attempt to earn a living) digging for dinosaur bones. Also on today's show, our pop-culture commentator Ian Shoales finds himself thoroughly (and perhaps typically) perplexed by a new-ish product known as "blu" --- "the smokeless electronic cigarette."
