Bedfellows, Strange or Erstwhile...


Quelle Horrors - bigots are underfoot and bills are gettin signed, but yet some poor girl is attacked at a Samantha Ronson DJ gig here in S-town. Sad, mad and bad. I can't believe this shit is still happening. And here -- and with alarming frequency. Please tell me the apathy isn't suppressing this issue because i'm at a boiling point... And it has fuckall to do w/Lilo's ex.
But - I am going to divert myself with this painting by Paul Cadmus. I love portraits from another time (*1932) that you can crawl into bed with. It's very familiar, like a lover who takes a brief moment to put down his banned book and pose for you (*and btw, Ulysses was still banned at the time of the painting, making this a very bold statement in more ways than one).
And while we're on a coolness meme - another diversion - take it away Plugz (from New Wave Theatre Circa 82)...
