Hungover ‘Antiques Roadshow’ Expert Pulls AnotherAppraisal Out Of Her Ass

INDIANAPOLIS-Saying whatever she had to say to get through the PBS shoot as quickly as possible, hungover Antiques Roadshow expert Katrina Delaney reportedly pulled another appraisal out of her ass Wednesday morning.Yeah, you can tell from the, uh, baroque cornices that it's probably from the Ming dynasty," the 48-year-old decorative arts specialist said of the century-old cigar humidor she had barely bothered to glance at, wincing as the man who had brought her the object exclaimed, Wow, that's incredible!" a little too loudly. I especially admire the Edwardian neoclassic patina. Mhm. Yes, yes. It's a, uh, remarkably-let's see, how do I put this-brown piece, even after all these years. I'd put its value somewhere between $500 and $5,000. Now, did your grandmother happen to have any Tylenol in her attic? I'd love to appraise some of that."The flustered appraiser went on to claim that the large glob of egg and cheese that had just slipped out of her breakfast sandwich and landed smack dab on the center of an 18th-century oil painting had only made it more valuable.
