Alex Steinweiss, Inventor of Album Cover Art
I have an embarrassing amount of these in my 78 collection....
Blue Velvet 2: Electric Boogaloo
A bent mop and a tiny birdhouse are juxtaposed with framed roadside art while
plastic bags ( hung on the doorknob near an overflowing trash can ) create a powerful commentary on the unquenchable hunger of our consumer culture. Is a meth lab hidden behind that half-opened door? This is a world of trash, both real and metaphoric. A place that exists only in some vague collective memory. While you wait for a rumored 4 hour director's cut, enjoy yourself... but when Grandma wants a beer don't bring her a Heineken... FUCK THAT SHIT.. PABST BLUE RIBBON.

Twinkle
I need all her recordings on thrift store vinyl or Reel to Reel IMMEDIATELY
It's like Julee Cruise went back in time and had a baby with Petula Clarke, Nancy Sinatra and Nico.
Thanks to Richard Fox, purveyor of fine music.

Honey badger don't like hydrangeas
During an interview in a French magazine, GrandMadonna confirmed that she just doesn't get Lady Gaga.
"As for Lady Gaga, I have no comment to make about her obsessions with me because I don't know whether her behaviour is rooted in something deep and meaningful, or superficial"
Deep and meaningful ???
Superficial?
Has there ever been anyone in the history of the world more superficial than Madonna.

Spaceballs: the non-imated series
If you've never heard of this show, be thankful.
It's streaming on Netflix, if you dare. I made it through about 3 minutes. Shockingly horrible voice acting, by several original cast members including Mel Brooks, meets execrable "animation" in what may possibly be the worst thing ever.
This is a cruel form of torture and I believe it violates several rules of the Geneva Convention.
I mean it. Anything they can get wrong, they get wrong.
In that way it is wildly successful ( Im' trying not to be so negative all the time, so... there's that).
On second thought, perhaps Mel Brooks has created the ultimate parody of "Star Wars" by thoroughly Lucasing the memory of his original film?
Probably not....

Hey Timmy, ever seen a grown man naked?
Creepy vintage Star Wars promo where Luke comes off a bit... well, decide for yourself.

27b/6
Before you click on this link, set aside plenty of time to wander through the missives of the greatest prankster EVER. David Thorne is a hardcore guerilla e-mauler. He has come to the interwebs to kick ass and chew gum... and he is all out of gum. His correspondents run the gamut from the pompous, clueless and self-important to good old-fashioned garden variety D-bags.
David Thorne is a genius and obviously NOT a foggot.

The Brothers Quay and The Mutter Museum
Visiting Philadelphia? Leave the Liberty Bell to the tourists and visit one of the strangest, creepiest and most beautiful places on Earth; The Mutter Museum. David Lynch found the inspiration for "Eraserhead" while living in Philly and hanging out at the Mutter.
No, they don't serve man-made chickens in the cafeteria.
