Dear Shizzo,
  You are not alone in commenting on the size of my signatures.
  When I went to sign my first one, my Professor told me that artists like to sign their names
in a very tiny manner. Well, fuck the Establishment, fuck the Art World and Harley Breite does
nothing in a tiny manner (except make muscular gains). So, I wrote it big and liked it.
  Not being a professional, not having to do it for money and painting only for the fun of it, gives
one a freedom to sign their name in any manner they like.

Hey Guys,
I apologize for somehow posting the same note twice. I don't know how that happened but I will be more careful
in the future.
Thanks for the comments on the paintings. Perhaps I will post some of my others.

Dear Shizzo,
While I most admire Lincoln, I must say that painting is wonderfully done.

Dear Donny,
Thanks but as I always say, everyone is doing something for someone out there. You guys are raising your own
children to be good people, doing your own acts of charity and many other things which bring joy to others.
My "kids" are great for me in many respects but one in particular: They don't care about whether I am in the newspaper or
on television. For example, I was on the television news and in the paper 3 days last week. My kids don't see me as anything
different or anything special. They could care less about whether I have a big case, have abs or have a nice car.
It's so refreshing to be around such pure people who, if they like you, they like you for who you really are and not what you have
or some public image. They are a gift to me, not the other way around.
Harley

Awesome pics show an amazing life! Much respect for work with your kids. I did a year internship in grad school with autistic kids and it's not "easy" work by any means and can be as depressing as it is rewarding. World needs more people like you Harley

Harley, has painting the Vette been finished?

HarleyBreite · « **Reply #2165 on:** October 31, 2015, 03:26:17 PM »

Dear Las Vegas,
The Vette has been painted and the last buffing is happening this week.
I should have some kool pictures next week.
I had a serious meeting with my Builder and said I was taking the cars back unless things
got done much faster. We have a new plan in order and I see no reason why I won't have 3 of
the 4 cars by April 1st as I planned.

Does the Reflex look as you expected it would look? Nice and bright (bright, for that type of silver).

I have not seen it yet. The Painter says it is his best paint job ever which is saying something. We shall see.

With the lines on that car, I'd bet it will look damn good.

Dear Las Vegas,
It is a Pro Street with side pipes so it should look pretty kool.
The interior is stock looking, black but with classic looking stereo with iPod.

IMO you are doing it up just right!

Las Vegas · « **Reply #2172 on:** October 31, 2015, 04:54:53 PM »

Yes, man. My favorite Vette body-style.

I'm surprised you guys didn't have any feelings about the MHP shake up and what I predict is Victor's pending downfall.

Only question anyone has, probably, is why it took so long. VM has extended himself way past what everyone thought he would have, I bet.
