One part Alfons Mucha‘s vivid detailing, one part Aubry Beardsley‘s otherworldly elegance and one part Frank Frazetta‘s kinetic energy, and PRESTO! My favorite artist. Sheer brilliance. His art evokes a world that is, without a doubt, different than our own, and yet remains vaguely familiar. Sort of like discovering a tapestry from a distant and long forgotten culture, or some alternate Atlantean renaissance.

Disclaimer: The following will probably be dismissed as the most ignorant thing that has ever appeared on this blog. To give further context to my statements I would like to also inform you that I endorse lead paint, elemental mercury in your food, and acts of revenge resulting in physical violence. Among the things I am actually against: insurance, seatbelts, and giving food to starving peoples. So if those opinions in any way, frighten or disturb you, by all means continue reading.

I would like to call to attention a strange phenomena that I have noticed. That phenomena is the strangely prominent occurrences of cancer in neutered and spayed pets. Has the whole world gone mad or is it just me?

I’m always hearing from self described “pet people” and from ASPCA commercials about how having your dog or cat fixed isn’t just responsible from a planned parenthood vantage point, but also actually beneficial to the pet’s health.
My major complaint is that this statement seems to me, complete bullshit. I’ve had, and been witness to many many many dogs and cats simply living WAAAAY past their expiration dates that never went under the knife. …meanwhile, I cant help but notice that every pet thats been plagued by health issues, and meets it’s maker ahead of schedule (aside via vehicular manslaughter) …they’ve all been fixed!

I challenge you to consult your own memory.

Pictured is my best friend Rufus. Know why he’s smiling? Thats right, he still has his balls.

Now I will admit that someone willing to pay for the procedure in the first place is probably far more likely to actually take their pet to the vet in the event of an illness and get a diagnosis, and the pets of less attentive owners tend to go undiagnosed… but you know what? That’s bullshit too. I only threw that in there so someone wouldn’t attempt to diffuse my argument on that presumption.

The overpopulation of unwanted pets is caused by careless and irresponsible owners. I don’t think that the occasional surprise batch of puppies is making a noticeable impact on that number as long as dog breeders have jobs.

Somewhat less adorable than seeing his glorious pendulous balls trailing behind him like a rusty tailpipe dragging from an old Chevy…


Get your dog fixed and you give him a death sentence. Its harsh but it’s true.

Your dog, and (because the cat is less domesticated) especially your cat, evolved with his or her anatomy as part of the equation. You as a human, with your benevolent intentions, want to throw a monkey wrench into an intricate piece of clockwork.

A strangely disturbing “youthful” Busey… you ladies turned on yet?

From the page: “Gary Busey was originally cast as H.M. “Mad” Murdock in the 1980s television series ‘The A-Team’. A total of fourteen episodes were filmed with him in the role until it became apparent to Stephen J. Cannell, the creator of the series, that Busey believed that he truly was a member of an elite group of crack-commandos-cum-soldiers-of-fortune on the run for a crime they did not commit. Busey went as far as accosting actor George Peppard, who played team leader John “Hannibal” Smith, that if he ever revealed the location of the A-Team he would “tear his guts out through his stink-button and make that pussy Mr. T eat them”. (Mr. T; “The Man With the Gold”; 1984).”

Not a bad little archery game here. The game gets pretty boring after none too long but there are lots of interesting ways to kill off your apple carrier. Aim for the guy’s mouth and you’ll take his head clean off. The neat thing is after about level ten, you feel a bond of trust develope with the guy, so that by the time you shoot an arrow through his neck you feel terrible for about a tenth of a second. What fun!
