I mean, I guess naked paratroopers could land on the cyclists' heads with cocaine, but short of that...

I love this image. If that happened it would be FANTASTIC!

My midlife crisis continues (as does the fucking headache--I'm pissed, but I am not going near an ER this weekend) and I'm toying with another hair idea.

I don't know how artificial I can go at this job, but I saw a guy who had coloured just the front fringe of his hair. I keep mine longer, and usually lighter than the rest, and I wonder if I bleached just that and then coloured it red or something, and left the rest natural, or dyed it black...

Suddenly it sounds like work. But for a couple seconds there I imagined my outfit with my 'fringe' matching my corset and it was very cool.

There is just about nothing I could imagine happening to the TdF to make it more exciting. Because I totally don't care for cycling, but who doesn't love a good human scandal? It's great. Especially the bits where people bring shit down on themselves.

Kat, I owe you mail. Let me get on that.

Aw, Axel Merckx got all teary at the end of the stage.

Well, it's not as fun as naked paratroopers, but there were some separatist bombings the other day. Of course, if you're blowing shit up and you can't get people to notice, your attention grab isn't so attention-grabby. [link]

Making of the diamond skull.

Hirst is one of those artists who believes the art is in the concept, and will get other people to do the gruntwork. I'm assuming he's paid his dues, but I'm still tempted to call him a designer.

I'd love to be able to get people to execute my ideas. I have a million clothes mostly-designed in my head, and a bunch of other crap I have neither the knowledge or the skill to make real.

ita, I'm not convinced two-tone hair is going to play as you imagine it.

I'm trying to think of an analogy and the only thing I can think of is the art-girl I dated who would wear odd combinations of vintage clothes that worked tonally, but clashed with each other as statements of style.

That is, the colors worked together but there was a meta-conversation in her fashion that she ignored that other people would not.

While you could visually marry the color in the fringe with your ensemble, for other people having two-toned hair is just going to register as something different than you intend.

If they're not my employer, I don't give a damn. And that's precisely the reason I haven't tried it.

I've been having my hair "interpreted" since I cut it off 20 years ago. It has no meaning beyond my amusement and laziness.

I'm jealous of dye jobs like Kat used to have, with the brightly coloured chunks. When your hair is mm long, it's gonna look like a mess. The fringe, or tips thereof, would be the only multi-colour option I'd consider.

Boss is the only thing keeping me from going bald too.

eta: Whoah. I didn't know what had happened to John 3:16 guy.

Okay! Just stay away from the Floyd Patterson (guy on left) look.

Whoah. I didn't know what had happened to John 3:16 guy.

Me neither. Now I'm curious - was his taking a hostage and demanding a press conference part of a plan to spread the word of Christ? Or was it unrelated?

I'm feeling really discombobulated about reading at Comic Con, passing out postcards and such.

Like, full on nervous breakdown alert.
