| List I found |
[Aug. 13th, 2009|05:49 pm] |
Well, I haven't posted on here in forever. Been busy...getting ready to move to Italian Village with my boyfriend after a year living together in Victorian Village so been going thru some old papers and junk and stuff I should've thrown out a long time ago and selling every old thing of value on Craigslist I can think of.
Came across this list that I made with my ex Jeremy when we lived in a motel in Los Angeles when I was out there for an internship like five years ago of all the crazy people we saw on the streets of Los Angeles (we didn't have a car when we were there). Thought it was worth re-posting:
- Schizophrenic girl with no shoes and towel on her head screaming, "Fuck you! Fuck you Jesus! Fuck your Jesus! Fuck my Jesus!"
- Girl who resembled Courtney Love in her Hole days yelling, "Red light! Red light" at the stop light
- Lady who clearly shit her pants and was walking around like nothing happened
- 2 people pissing next to each other, one African-American gentleman and one guy in a sailor outfit
- Street corner preacher who rants about how he hates women
- Lady pushing a cartful of babydolls
- Lady who smelled like piss who was always wearing a winter coat in the middle of the summer outside the Super 8 Motel who always had a Dr. Pepper and a cigarette
- Guy walking around wearing nothing but underwear
- Older woman and younger man trying to sell a Marlboro duffel bag, VCR and a gay porn
- Black guy in his 20s who screams Bible verses and sings gospel songs
- Square-faced transsexual hooker that yells "Danger! Danger!"
- Teenage runaways always peddling outside McDonalds
- Homeless man digging through the trash wearing a Strawberry Shortcake backpack
- Conjoined twins attached at the head, one of which doesn't have a fully grown body and is wheeled around by the other on a small silver table
- Over-botoxed lady on the bus and drunk crazy Mexican who tried to put his head on my shoulder
- Old lady on the bus with a handful of snot
- Crack whore at laundromat who always asked for cigarettes
- Old lady with big glasses who mutters Spanish while writing out greeting cards at the McDonalds
- Crazy drunk homeless guy claiming to be the "Olsen Twins talent scout" who called me an asshole
- Guy with Ramen noodle hair at laundromat informing us to watch our clothes or someone will take them out of the washer
- Keyboardist set up alongside the 7-11
- Man who no arms and legs who washes the Hollywood Blvd Walk of Fame stars
- Bald girl who burst into tears at Denny's
- Guy with a shoebox of change, purple latex gloves, an economy-sized Pine-Sol and an IV bag |

| New Neko Case |
[Jan. 18th, 2009|06:26 pm] |
One of my favorite alt-country/folk artists Neko Case is offering the latest single from her new album out in March called “People Got A Lotta Nerve” as a free download. Neko and Anti Records will donate $5 to Best Friends Animal Society, an animal rescue organization for every viral marketing plug. If you own a blog, spread the word if you dig her like I do.

| Go see 'MILK'! |
[Dec. 6th, 2008|05:54 pm] |
Last night I saw the new Gus Van Sant film 'MILK' and I have to say it's one of the best movies I've seen in a long time. I recommend everyone to go see it. Sean Penn is phenomenal as openly gay San Francisco city supervisor Harvey Milk. James Franco was also excellent in the film as Harvey's longtime boyfriend. My favorite was Speed Racer Emile Hirsch as a prostitute-turned-devout gay activist. The movie was inspiring, sad and altogether moving. It also made me think about how few openly GLBT politicians there have been since Milk (minus like a Barney Frank)... Anyhow, go see this movie. It's the best gay movie I've ever seen. |

| Collage of hope |
[Nov. 16th, 2008|11:32 am] |
This is really cool. It's a collage someone made of some of the Obama front page headlines from November 5th forming Obama's image. It makes me recall a much less inspiring photo of George W. Bush made from the collaged faces of dead American soldiers from the first couple years of the Iraq War.

If I hear one more thing about Sarah Palin I'm gonna scream! Can we put this anti-gay, pro-life, anti-animal rights Dick Cheney in a dress on anymore of a pedastool? |

| Weird Dispatch story |

This has to be the weirdest story I've read in the Dispatch in quite some time:
Man with urine fetish disobeys judge's order
Saturday, July 12, 2008 2:53 AM
By Amanda Dolasinski
THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH
Alan D. Patton was at a public pool shortly after he was told to stay away from places where children gather.
A Northwest Side man who was arrested in June trying to collect boys' urine at a sports complex restroom was issued a criminal-trespassing warning yesterday after he was found at a public swimming pool.
Alan D. Patton, 56, of 6269 Emberwood Rd., was escorted out of a City of Hilliard pool at 3800 Veterans Memorial Dr., about 2:30 p.m.
He had just appeared in Franklin County Municipal Court that morning on the charge from June, which stemmed from his arrest at Sports Ohio on Cosgray Road.
He was allowed to remain free with the order to stay away from all public restrooms, as well as places where children gather, such as pools, movie theaters and playgrounds.
Patton, an admitted child molester, was not arrested in Hilliard yesterday but was issued a criminal-trespassing warning, according to Dublin police.
He reportedly was acting strangely, and some patrons notified the pool's managers, who recognized him from a flier that had been sent to county recreational facilities.
When Patton, a registered sex offender, was arrested on June 14 at Sports Ohio, he was trying to collect urine in a men's restroom, Dublin police said. He allegedly covered toilet seats in plastic wrap and shut off water to urinals, placing Styrofoam cups in them. He was charged with criminal mischief and released on bond that day.
From an arrest several years ago, Patton was ordered to wear a tracking device for five years so parole officers can follow his location. It was unclear last night whether he was wearing it when stopped at Sports Ohio and in Hilliard.
In 1994, Patton admitted to sexually assaulting boys ages 7 to 9 in Columbus-area public restrooms. His attorney at the time said Patton suffers from urophilia, an interest in urine for sexual gratification. Patton served four years of an eight-year term.
He also was convicted of charges such as voyeurism, public indecency and disorderly conduct in Columbus, Westerville and Gahanna in 1990, 1992, 2003 and twice in 2006.

This week's Newsweek has an excellent cover article titled "How Barry Became Barack" about Obama's past and how he came to adopt his African tribal name of Barack Obama. It's an insightful read about all he has had to overcome.
OBAMA 2008! |

| the history of one tough motherfucker - by charles bukowski. |
[Feb. 8th, 2007|12:55 pm] |
he came to the door one night wet thin beaten and
terrorized
a white cross-eyed tailless cat
I took him in and fed him and he stayed
grew to trust me until a friend drove up the driveway
and ran him over
I took what was left to a vet who said,"not much
chance...give him these pills...his backbone
is crushed, but is was crushed before and somehow
mended, if he lives he'll never walk, look at
these x-rays, he's been shot, look here, the pellets
are still there...also, he once had a tail, somebody
cut it off..."
I took the cat back, it was a hot summer, one of the
hottest in decades, I put him on the bathroom
floor, gave him water and pills, he wouldn't eat, he
wouldn't touch the water, I dipped my finger into it
and wet his mouth and I talked to him, I didn't go any-
where, I put in a lot of bathroom time and talked to
him and gently touched him and he looked back at
me with those pale blue crossed eyes and as the days went
by he made his first move
dragging himself forward by his front legs
(the rear ones wouldn't work)
he made it to the litter box
crawled over and in,
it was like the trumpet of possible victory
blowing in that bathroom and into the city, I
related to that cat-I'd had it bad, not that
bad but bad enough
one morning he got up, stood up, fell back down and
just looked at me.
"you can make it," I said to him.
he kept trying, getting up falling down, finally
he walked a few steps, he was like a drunk, the
rear legs just didn't want to do it and he fell again, rested,
then got up.
you know the rest: now he's better than ever, cross-eyed
almost toothless, but the grace is back, and that look in
his eyes never left...
and now sometimes I'm interviewed, they want to hear about
life and literature and I get drunk and hold up my cross-eyed,
shot, runover de-tailed cat and I say,"look, look
at this!"
but they don't understand, they say something like,"you
say you've been influenced by Celine?"
"no," I hold the cat up,"by what happens, by
things like this, by this, by this!"
I shake the cat, hold him up in
the smoky and drunken light, he's relaxed he knows...
it's then that the interviews end
although I am proud sometimes when I see the pictures
later and there I am and there is the cat and we are photo-
graphed together.
he too knows it's bullshit but that somehow it all helps. |
