  Trying to "eschmile"

I was feeling angry and depressed when I made this. There is no reason why you couldn't say it reflected my mood, but then again, I'm not a blob. The shadow could use some work, but I got tired of MS Paint's lack of real life canvas feel and gave up trying.

  "Rat Boy found ALIVE!"

Making headlines across the world as wide as it is tall, Bat Boy (more recently referred by the mix of his human name and stage name "Rat Boy") has become the Catholic'€™s newest leader of denouncing change, the Pope. How long has it been since we saw his sweet face on the cover of The Weekly World News? Probably not long, but in any case, he has overcome the struggles of being a complete freak, numerous plastic surgeries and years of study of the Christian faith, our beloved Rat Boy has reached the pinnacle.

Although, his history of Nazi affiliation has brooded questioning of his stance on human rights and justification for his new position in the Vatican. However, the fact does remain, hardship, after hardship, Rat Boy has grown from a media starlet to a global faith-founded king.

May his new reign over the Catholics be a fulfilling and his papacy as the sixteenth Benedict one of renewed life within the freakish world.

  Thursday through Saturday

That Guy ---------------------------------->
is Cyro Baptista (kinda looks like Les Claypool)
Me and Mollie went out on Saturday night to see this him and his band at the Bowery Ballroom. Put Victor Von Frankenstien and his monster on a stage with nearly all percussive instruments ever. PVC pipe, buzz saw, pots and pans, fire hydrant, daiko drums, synth pad, bells, drum set, djembe, tambourines, and a vast assortment of little shakers and such. Get some persian looking guy who channels Bootsie Collins in on keyboards/harmonium, a chick who can shred and pound (while wearing a Viking helmet) as well as Cyro himself (clad in a NASA jumpsuit, russian fur hat and Rec Specs) and the massive amount of rock/tribal/brazillian percussive/melodic undergrowth and you've got this band.


This weekend was awesome (read: well deserved vacation, not that I was the most deserving). Comedy ballet, Upright Citizens Brigade shows, Brothers, ten hour bus ride, five hour train ride, Milkshakes, Cacti titled "Bald Old Men" (when they obviously had hair), Grass stains, Felicity (shut up), 2am taxi ride to arrive at Mollie jumping up and down with a sandwich in reward for crossing the street (pear and lemonade extra).

Good Weekend Period (although that appears as "Good Weekend." with the punctuation vocalized)

  Montgomery County

No T-shirt could have endorsed Maryland (or at least a part of it) better than the one that had this image on it. The only other ones i've seen are "Maryland: I've got crabs!" or "Maryland Matters!". I want one for Anne Arundel, but I can't think of one as sweet as this.

bitchin.
