White Trash T-Shirts!



Is it just me, or is this t-shirt incredibly hilarious and just all around awesome? You know the type - there's some run down gas station in the middle of nowhere, you walk in and there's a rack full of shirts with ridiculous animals with the town's name on it. This particular gem came from dowtown Sacramento, where the wolves, deer, bald eagles and bears run rampant through the urban landscape. Yeah right!

My dear buddy "Mysterious Bunny" got me really into these a few years back. If I remember correctly, he had a black shirt with two panthers on their hind legs, fighting to the death. Then sure enough, right above it, the caption read, "Crescent City, CA." Not necessarily a place known for it's wild, black panther population. M.B. also used to "rock" a "t" featuring a vicious wolf gnashing his teeth, with a vato looking dude riding a motorcycle underneath, one hell of a combo!I don't know what it is about these shirts that so intrigues me. . . maybe I just find it incredibly funny in an ironic way. Am I crazy for obsessing over these things?

I love SNoggin! (Snow Bloggin')




It has snowed a shit ton (roughly around a foot) here and I've been fully enjoying it. Over the last week or so I've gone sledding, gotten into drunken snowball fights, made "snow penises" on people's cars and slipped and ate shit on more than one occasion. Hee Hee. It's also a lot of fun to make up snow words. For example, a Snow Blog is considered a "Snog," a Snow Oasis is called a "Snoasis," and Snow Rape is called "Snape." Yuck.



Here I am trying out my "Snildo" on "Scuba Steve."



This is my little snow angel, isn't he precious? Notice the attention to detail on his snow outfit, or "snoutfit."



The little guy went for a little sled ride. Yes he did, yes he did (in a pussy voice).



Who is this guy? Is this a snow man? Hitler? Or maybe, just maybe it's a "Snace" or "Snow Face."



And finally, Steve points and says, "here's a nice old piece of shit."

F.A.G.tastic!




One of my projects that I haven't mentioned much is F.A.G. It started in the Winter of 2005 as a "real" rock and roll band featuring three lads with the last names Ferrell, Allen and Graves, thus the acronym F.A.G. It was a short lived band, but I think we actually played 3 or 4 shows. Later on, Jeremy (Ferrell) and I recorded a couple of tracks with super producer DJCJ (AKA GAYbriel). You can check those out on our myspace page:

The concept is simple enough. We determined that there is a huge untapped market out there - rap music that appeals to gay people. . .or "Homo Hop" as I like to call it. So, Cecil (Allen), Flamer Flame (Ferrell) and Gaybriel wrote, recorded and posted the "gams" (gay-jams).

While in town working on the film "KaraoKing," the crew got back together at the legendary studios located at the Durant residence. We added a new member, "Cool Queef." The song below remains tragically unfinished, but I feel showing the creative process is almost as entertaining.
