The curator of an art gallery asked an artist for a painting depicting
General Custer's last thoughts.

Two weeks later, the artist unveiled the painting, an enormous canvas with
a lovely blue lake painted in its center, with a fish leaping from the
water with a shining halo around its head. On the shores of
the lake were the most detailed pictures of Indians fornicating.

After gaping at the painting for some time, the enraged curator demanded
to know what the theme was supposed to be.

The artist said, "You asked for a painting of Custer's last thoughts," he
explained. "That's it. Custer was thinking, 'Holy mackerel, where did all
those fucking Indians come from?'"
