How I got rid of those last ten pounds


When we started this blog for the documentary, I promised myself I would never go more than two weeks without posting. I also promised myself that I would never start a blog post with something lame and apologetic like, Read more

The way you look


I  don't flirt. Ever. Not because I don't know how, but because I just don't like to. Being funny had always been my technique as a server and it was more profitable and less exhausting to maintain than keeping Read more

I believe in Dog


I am selfish and lazy. While I have been working since I was 14 years old and like to think I have spent a fair portion of my life if not in the pursuit of bettering humanity then at least Read more

Gratuity included

Di's-appointment


I stand before you, a sinner. I have broken my word.  I have not practiced what I preached. I have failed! Contrition was a big thing in the 80's. People were always apologizing for something or other and apparently it Read more

Here is the first of many promotional posters for the film. It is from an original photograph by our friend and professional photographer Andrew Balfour.  Enjoy.

Yep. I said AWESOME. As in SOME filled with AWE.

 

 

Chuck Norris is a creationist spouting asshole and other uncomfortable opinions.

So, assuming I’ve cornered everyone’s attention (and in some cases their homicidal ire) I’ll just get on with it. Read more

A Fashion show, as it turns out, is a lot of different things.

I’m John Galt. No– I’M John Galt.

Question: Would John Galt wear Lululemon.

Answer: Yes– because it expresses the highest level of vacuous, self-fellating thinking for people who were born into the kind of cosmic good fortune God would laugh at, if A. it wasn’t so implausible and B. there actually was a God.

Di is a clever and malevolent creature. She ‘suggested’ that I have a look at a tumblr page by this woman, Nancy Upton. Tell me what you think, Di says… maybe there is a blog in it.

And you should check it out because these are pretty artful. They got some layers as Di and I enjoy saying (probably far too much). Read more
