    Is a photo of a tart automatically art?

    I only ask because the word "art" is so prominent in the word "tart".

    Only if Bart has a cart full of darts and ... well, we'll skip 'f" ... and he takes his heart to the mart for part of a quart of tart warts.

    Yes, Tuna, I think it is. In the same way that some think a photo of a homeless person or bum are instantly art. Plus, like kelly mentioned, since it has the word art in it, it gives even more credence to it. In fact, I'm sure I studied in school this equasion: Art=Tart. I'm pretty sure...

    I used to know a guy named Arthur Tart. Does that count?

    At what age does one become a Tart? And, is there a cutoff age for Tarts?
