Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Joe Francis doesn't like jail very much. Bwahahahahaha!

Bwahahahahaha!

This will never be unfunny.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Joe Francis is reportedly going crazy in jail -- literally -- under the withering verbal assault of a convicted cop killer who's going wild, taunting Francis day and night with shouts of "Girls Gone Wild! Joe Francis! Whoo!"

Hee!

The Vacuum Cleaner in Art

The recurring nature of dust and dirt as a metaphor for resurrection and transformation is an underlying theme for many of the artists below. Eliza Gagnon will be presenting a video edited from interviews she did with an astonishing range of Americans on various aspects of dust and cleaning, including 9/11 dust, cleaning and sex, cleaning and race, and favorite cleaning product smells. Like many of the artists, Merav Ezer’s work is informed by her experiences as an emigrant from her country of origin. Using a vacuum, she creates molds of personal objects such as cigarettes and high heels, preserving them.

This is the coolest part:

Bobby Zokaites rebuilds Roomba robotic vacuum cleaners for the function of painting. The algorithm that the machines use to vacuum rooms then becomes visible. The Roombas will be painting at the opening, petting is allowed.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Sources tell TMZ that even if he does get released by this judge, he may well be arrested by the county sheriff on charges of bringing drugs and cash into his jail cell, and that he may be picked up as soon as he walks out of court.

HA. Dumbass.

Compassionately intolerant

people suspend disbelief that Jason rises from the dead 13 times, but assume that the use of a symbol with five points in a circle means satan in real life.

Oy. This is my life. I can't even express the numbers of times I've had to explain the difference between a pent-acle and a pent-agram. Stoopid devil worshipers making my life tedious. Grumble.

On the other hand, it has gotten a lot easier to explain in recent years and more people seem simply curious, rather than repelled. Then again, I'm not exactly the picture of a baby-animal slayer...so I guess I get more of a pass than some might.

Meth Mouth.

OK, while I highly doubt that I would ever have tried methamphetamines anyway (I haven't even tried pot apart from a Grateful Dead concert where I had to, y'know, breathe), that photo has just ensured that I will kick the ass of anyone who even tries to make me take the stuff.

Somehow, I think Meth Mouth is something Mush-Mouth got when he was older....

I'm totally being cool and not calling Dana to make sure she hasn't been taken hostage by a gunman on her way to Target: [link]

See how cool I am being?
