Santa was recently seen entering the Betty Ford Clinic after a two week Gin bender fueled by cocaine, vitamin K, and anti-bacterial handwash. In this recent photo--used as factual proof at the intervention staged by the elves and Mrs. Claus--Santa is demonstrating why his super-human need to self-medicate exists in the first place.Notice the finely glazed look in his eyes that just screams

Oscar Wilde has been one of those intriguing figures throughout my well-sauced life as a reader. The first encounter with Oscar's particular point of view was in this sometimes mis-attributed quotation: "Only dull people are brilliant at breakfast."There is something that I really enjoy within this.

Under normal conditions, human cells flourish when they metabolise oxygen. Heathly cells need to breath. Cancer cells react in the opposite fashion. They are broken down by exposure to oxygen--many alternative cancer treatment programs use oxygen exposure methods--and thrive on the process of fermentation.

Jade mentions (in a furtive and not altogether coherent way)the end of the earth and the notion that the world is round. It is all very hard to believe. And to the random topic at hand.Europe shows us many things. Many people may miss what those polite and grumpy folks of many nations can reveal. They show us the value of cobblestones. Solid projectiles that can crack a skull, store window,

Cashed in another event on Friday. Many instances of the crack-pots cashing in early and just floating along on their personal cancelled checks of reputation/personality/position. I have been seared with the sight of old-guys cruise ship finger dancing to the B-52's Loveshack. Cancelled.

So, Woody--the meatball from which we purchased four chairs for an installation at the mall--calls to suggest that WE go about fixing the two chairs that broke after one week. Let me add this important detail--the chairs have a LIFETIME guarantee from defect. This is WOODY'S guarantee.I had the pleasure of being able to tell him to take a flying fucking leap.

So, I had no idea that such fierce enjoyment could come from a reflcetive look at old school skateboarding. Most of us have heard about the Lords of Dogtown film--garnering some small attentions for it's cast, directing, photography etc.--but this is not what I am talking (or want to write)about.

So Hawaii has only one remaining sugar refinery. I recall the TV commercials growing up that had the jingle "...pure cane sugar from Hawaii" that featured a semi alluring female and a few random kids sucking on sugar cane stalks and tantalizing backgrounds of their island home. And now they barely produce nay sugar? What happened? Did the manufacturers realize that shipping things from an

The very nature of "possibilities" is that something, anything can or will happen at any given time. Or not. I am not talking Murhpy's Law, but only "What ifs. . .?"It has become something of challenging proposition to consider the multitude of "What ifs. . .?" in most all of the things that are piled on my pizza.
