Ae, all those Dali originals are now flying back to the Bank of Santander. The bill comes due, finally, and the maestro doesn't have the funds to cover them. What to do? See if intimidation keeps the creditors at bay. That's what we're seeing now, in Dubya's "Axis of Evil" countries.
As well as the usual jockeying for control of the last hours of ancient sunlight, of course.
