I'm still your fan


I've been waiting a week to see Stephen Colbert's performance at the White House Correspondents dinner. But damn't the Prez stole the show by speaking alongside George Bush impersonater, Steve Bridges. The prez got the laughs but Colbert got dead pan stares from the audience with lines like:

"When the president decides something on Monday, he still believes it on Wednesday - no matter what happened Tuesday"

"I stand by this man. I stand by this man because he stands for things. Not only for things, he stands on things. Things like aircraft carriers and rubble and recently flooded city squares. And that sends a strong message, that no matter what happens to America, she will always rebound with the most powerfully staged photo ops in the world."

"I believe the government that governs best is the government that governs least. And by these standards, we have set up a fabulous government in Iraq."

Great jokes just the wrong audience. Transcript and video

Too busy to blog

I'm sorry to disappoint my millions of blog readers but I'm too busy to blog. I'll be going out of town and I'm working on my History of Art Flickr photoset that features dead master painter's work in chronological order. The NY Painters set continues to grow.

Have a look at my favorite painter Paul Klee. The museum dedicated to him is a fantastic resource.



Has anyone bothered to read this? Probably not

Magazine finds

The April Elle Decor has some things that I thought you would find interesting. First when I saw this page I thought of Fairy Butler. I like those pillows. My grandmother painted dishes like these maybe I'll post pictures of her dishes if there is an interest.


Next an artist that uses the computer like Sloth. Im sure Sloth knows about her so its not news but anyway its good that this approach is getting attention. Its a little to manic for my taste.

Sad day for friends

I offer a hot bowl of Chicken noodle soup for sick moms and dads. I hope they feel better soon.



And I am very sad that my favorite eatery is gone. They offered the finest Ruben's in town.

Dining there was part of my daily routine even if I sat alone at the corner table evesdropping instead of mingling at the happen'n counter. I hope my favorite eatery opens up again maybe with a new interior design?? A Philly steak sandwich is great too!

NY painters set finished

My Flickr photo set of NY painters is finished, it took forever to assemble. Of course Painter has done the real work of putting together the collection on that blog. I like how the set displays things like a contact sheet and the slideshow of the set kicks ass! No I dont plan on organizing them alphabetically but I plan on collecting every piece done by the painters. Your help in locating photos of pieces on the internet is greatly appreciated. Leave the link in a comment please.

My favorite painters:
Favorite #1

This painter's work stands alone in the collection. I revere non-conformists. The work fits perfectly in our computer dominated society. A testament of our era. I would like to see a further exploration of the interchange between the virtual world and the real world.

Favorite #2

An anachronistic landscaped world permeated by psychological intrigue is what the doctor ordered. More explorations into the innerworld of the mind made manifest on the horizon PLEASE! Joy, sorrow, anger, depression, etc.... are all for the taking. I'm sorry I cant say more but I'm not very skilled as an art critic.

Favorite #3

Unfortunately I learned of this painter a little too late. More will be posted in the set soon. What I have seen blow my mind. A painter of grandiose vision. I would like to see the painter challenge the masters, Michelangelo, Botticelli, etc's vision against today's views regarding gender, equality, faith... This painter is the one who could pull it off successfully!

[Editorial correction: This painter is ALREADY pulling of challenging the masters]

Favorite #4

Everyone likes this painter and for good reason. The work is intoxicating.

Favorite #5

There is just something other worldly going with this painter's mind.

And there is more of course.

Invite for PD

PD, You marvel of the deli counter! For your most appreciated fashion advice I would like to take you out on a virtual trip to Washington D.C. on April 15 to see Lobster Boy's Jesus and Taxes Show!


You will experience an exotic evening to "celebrate the unholy collision of Easter, Passover, and Tax Day with a calamitous new comedic vaudeville show starring New York's burlesque marvel Miss Saturn!

The Lobster Boy Revue promises to fill your Easter basket with hilarious new acts from Trixie Little and the Evil Hate Monkey, Jesus Christ, the IRS, and the Easter Bunny. Hula-hooping hotties! Lobster Hunting Tips! Magical Tramps! Perverse Puppets! Fabulous prizes! Matzah! Watch out for perverted peeps and jellybean jokes! Only $15!

Miss Saturn combines vaudeville antics, saucy burlesque, audience interaction, sparkling costumes, fake accents, and 40 hula-hoops in a dazzling act that will blow your mind. Its no wonder the Village Voice named her the "hula-hooping demon" of the NYC burlesque scene."

Afterwards you will be entertained by water spout drinks of Regi's fine art implement (Sloth has always enjoyed the show) at the Washingon monument and join him in an arrest assured mooning of the White House.
