Why Artists Should Use an LLC for Their Business...
The LLC has become an increasingly popular corporate structure. LLC’s combine the personal liability protections of a large corporation and the simplified tax structure and filing requirements of a partnership or sole proprietorship. Traditionally, corporations were the only structure that afforded personal liability protection. Because corporations are distinct entities with the power to make agreements, sign contracts and even commit crimes, owners couldn’t be blamed for its actions. Owners are merely shareholders; the corporation is the one that should pay for the wrongdoing. That was a benefit many businesses wanted.Details here.

The Accidental Owner of a Banksy
“Are you going to be rich?” That is the first question people ask me upon finding out that in the wee morning hours of October 17, the famed street artist Banksy painted a mural on the side of a building my family owns in East Williamsburg.
The truth is — at the end of an exhausting day filled with phone calls talking to lawyers, security companies, art experts, and reporters — I have no idea what it means. There is no rule book when one of the most famous artists in the world decides to drop his work into your life.

Washington Redskin Potatoes
Not only has PETA allegedly stolen my wife's October 9th idea about renaming the Redskins... cough, cough, but they have also come up with a lame new logo... that moon rock thing doesn't even look like a redskin potato!
Some other folks have jumped in the bandwagon and designed some even lamer helmet designs... Wait till you guys see the new logo that the Kid has been working on...
And PETA, please stick to throwing red paint on models wearing furs... cough, cough.
