On your knees

A friend of mine had a unfortunate fall the other night and ended up dislocating his knee cap. He was in a rush, trying to catch transport and ended up taking a spill. As you can see below, the right knee cap is swollen and has moved up ruffly 2 to 3 inches into his thigh. Below that is a picture and diagram of the knee and surrounding muscles. You can see the severity of his injury.
Best of luck to my home boy. He has surgery really soon and should recover quickly. It looks a lot scarier and painful than it is. For someone who only sees bodies, this is kind of a surprise.

Johnny Damon???

Just look at the photo and tell me what you see.
HINT HINT: Johnny Damon is not the problem, the problem is something else. One of these guys is a close childhood friend of mine and the other got traded to the NEW YORK YANKEES.

Tattoo Session

I went for my first sitting last week to add to the existing work that I have. The photos are pretty sharp considering I was getting tattooed and manning my camera phone. Eat your heart out Ansel Adams.
I'm not one to get inked during the spring and summer season because I don't think getting tattooed and sitting under the blazing sun is such a smart idea. Markus over at Kaleidoscope is the one behind the needles. Check out his portfolio if you are interested in getting some quality work done. I guarantee you wont be disappointed.

Foliage Report

Sometime I walk to work and sometime I ride my bike but the morning of Halloween I decided to walk. On my short journey I caught a sever case of nostalgia. When I was a kid and I would go trick or treating, I would drag my feet through huge piles and pile of dead leaves. This day was no different. I walked to work that morning and dragged my feet through piles and pile of fallen leaves. The smell alone took me back 13 years to when I was just an out of control spazz, going crazy over Halloween tricks, treats and festive eats.To recap on Halloween, I decide to go the easy way and dig through my closet to see what I can come up with. This was the outcome.I found out my pal JB was dressing up as my costume brother so I made it a must to take a picture with him, I must say we look damn good. Hey Halloween, GO FUCK YOURSELF.........

Andre Royo in Harvard Sq.

Last week, I had an unexpected visitor come into my palace of work. I noticed this gentlemen inconspicuously browsing the shop and minding his own business. As it says in my job description, I have to approach the potential customer and ask him an open ended question. Just like the retail whore that I am, I slowly made my way over only to realized that it is the actor who played Tattoo in the movie Shaft that stared Samuel L. Jackson. I asked him if he was in any movies he answered yes and introduced himself. He also added that he was on the cast of HBO's The Wire (he plays bubbles). We shot the shit a bit and I found out why he was in Harvard. We also talked about education and what kind of student attend Harvard University. Of course I asked him for a photo opp and he said sure.I f you want to know more about Andre Royo just check this out. He was a cool cat and did not seem stuck up one bit. I figure if you treat these B celebrities just like you would anybody else, they are gonna be just as friendly and excited as you are.

Fuji Sport 12

About a month and a half ago, I finally finished the revamping of my 1979 Fuji sport 12. I have had the bike for some time now but have not had the time to work on it. It belonged to my cousin who got it circa 1979-80 and rode it for about 18 months until she put it into storage. I came across it in July and it laid dormant in my care till about September. I asked a good friend of mine, J.C. who is a bike enthusiasts himself to give me hand and he happily obliged. It was a fulfilling experience to say the least, and I say this because some of the parts were easy to take off and some were harder than quantum physics. In the end we managed to strip it down and build it up in about 2 days. Thanks to the guys at Harris Cyclery in West Newton, we ended up with this dope single speed.(don't judge my hat, it was a gift for my first ride) video
I rode the bike for about 3 weeks without a brake and I almost hit like 4 people in the process. I Finally got one put on and also got a light. FYI, if you are riding at night, make sure you have a light because those potholes and careless drivers can be the end of you.

The Cupcakes

In this life, I am amazed by certain things. Like a child, I catch my self hopelessly staring in to the distance, zoning out, thinking about whatever it is my brain has thought up. The other day was one of those day. I'm at work, like every other day, and staring out into the real world I see this massive vehicle drive past. Amazed by the presents of this vehicle I decide to take a closer look.
Further inspection leads to this.....As you might or might not know, I am a man who wants simple things and all I want is to be inside this trailer, knee deep in cupcakes, loving life and possible doing irreversible damage to what good teeth I have left. I need it, I want it, I got to have it. Hint, hint, hint, Christmas is around the corner, a possible day rental maybe?

Real Superhero ?

This kid has got some skills. If I had this in high school I would have definitely been home coming king, I would also be spending all my free time in a shrinks office due to my huge love for lighting all types of shit on fire. I'd be like "Hey Tammy, are you about to smoke that cigarette? How about a light? POOOOOOFFFFFF, proper face melter. Keep doing what your doing my flaming super nerd, because this shit IS the shit.

This second clip Is just as cool as the first one but I think this guy should have been out and about cutting real things in half and not playing with cardboard boxes and what not. Keep on keeping on my bladed comic geek, this shit IS the shit.

Happy Halloween

One FACE at a time

It has come to my attention that for some reason when certain gossip websites discuss the act of kissing , they automatically use the word FACE. This is where I come in. I was surfing the web and I came across these two posts.I am not a big fan of either of these two. Frankly, I am sick of seeing Mr. Gosselin every where I turn. Someone should give this guy a job, stop following him around because we are creating a media monster. He is just some horny guy who smashed out his wife a shit load of times (no pun intended) and spat out like 8 kids then put his thing in some other female. Just keep it in your pants guy.

Any who, I am definitely digging the use of face in the first post. SUCKS FACE TO SAVE FACE, fucking brilliant. So like I have said in the past, you see the word FACE, and I will put it up.

one FACE at a time.

May the FACE be with you.

DeLorean for $ALE

My brother was out last week with my dad and he came across something that we can all appreciate. He made my dad stop the car so he can get out and take a photo or two. I must say they aren't that bad for a camera phone.
Why would someone want to sell such a fantastic automobile? If I had some extra money you definitely know what I would do with it. Michael J. Fox, eat your heart out. That's heavy.Thanks to my bro for keeping his eyes always open for the sake of the FACE.

ART ?

Just some random bullshit that I did. I get real bored sometimes and this is what I come up with. Its not really great but one out of 1000 might think it's worthy of looking at.I did this one for my pal over at the Proletariat. If you want to get a better look, I think he might have it up in the shop.

Shopping Cart Race

One morning last week I went to get a breakfast sandwich from the local diner up the street from my house. It must have been a Thursday morning because I noticed all the trash out on the side walk and if memory serves correct, Thursday is trash day in my town. I also noticed this......Not only did I notice 2 shopping cart ladies, I noticed that they were communicating with one another from opposite side of the street. It looked like they were having some sort of race/contest consisting of who can pick up the most recyclable trash from their side of the street and make it to the check point first. I say this only because the trash digging and shopping cart pushing was being executed in an aggressive manner. Most shopping cart people are laid back, mellow nomads that take their time rummaging through trash barrels and piles of rubbish. This is what I saw, It could all be bullshit but I think if you look past the obvious you can see the true meaning of the moment.

Middle Finger

Technology is a wicked, wicked thing. Do you remember when automobiles had 8 track players? The technology was so primitive and simple, but now we have cameras located at the rear of the car. These cameras can see a distance of about 15 feet so technically you don't even have to look behind you while you back up. Every thing is displayed on an 4 by 6 LCD screen embedded in the dashboard. .CAUTION....... objects behind you may seem closer than they appearThanks to all my friends at Lexus for these memorable photographs. Actually, I should probably just thank two specific people for all their skills.
