Secret Handshakes

FACT:

I am not a big fan of tattoos, but I love toys and collectibles.
Besides just admitting there that I am more of a geek than I am some tough inked out guy, I was browsing Rotofugi.com for what new vinal is in (not records, but that came later.) I came across these gems and feel they are true works of art.

The bust and drawings were made by two artists, Brian Morris and Mitch O'Connell. Their work reminds me of tats on a really fucking cool biker, and to me, have a ton of edge (One of Mitch's side projects is designing tattoos.)

Click below and check out the gallery. buy a $500 drawing, or settle for a sticker. Live it up girl.

Oh wow!! American Idol is Awesome!!!

FACT:

FALSE, American Idol is a terrible show.
I basically watch a little bit of every episode so that when I talk to my mom we have something a little upbeat to discuss. With that said, tonight's the finale and it's up to Adam and Chris for the final vote!!! Man typing that made me feel a little like Seacrest... and I kinda want to stop there...but i cant.

I would bet my life (but seriously, anyone that wants to throw down any cash) that Adam takes the crown. I say this not cause he looks a little like a fruity Clark Kent and actually has a good high voice, but he's got that gay vote on lock. Needless to say, I think this time around it is more about voting for a gay dude, or a less talented John Mayer look-a-like. Which sucks that it doesn't come down to complete talent, but hey, what can you do. I will be shocked if Chris wins, and following it will be the rise of Middle America.



I couldn't post something almost pro American Idol without a few pokes at Ryan Seacrest. What a jack ass.

Liquid Lamp

FACT:

I had a ton of lava lamps in my younger days, and it was awesome.


The white on white one would look sick on a dark wall. That's my opinion, I mean fact...yesss. But for $189, I think ill pass or wait for Urban Outfitters to sell it and play the shit out of it.

Awkward Family Photos .com

FACT:

If you were to visit Nance in Apple Valley, she could bust out some pretty awesome glamor shots from my youth.
The worst one I can recall was me at age four, my brother, and maroon crushed velvet jumpsuits, with an added star wipe of our faces in each corner. Straight dreadful, and as much as i want to go home and look for it to scan on here...I think I'll pass.

AwkwardFamilyPhotos.com is a site that finds the worst family portraits and posts others that are sent in. Reading the captions is pretty much like a good issue of VICE. So either for a quick laugh, or if you choose to make public the amazing ideas and photography your parents had, add that shit today.
