Rest in peace

I love this picture of my girlfriends late mother. She was a beautiful woman back then and even when she passed away a few weeks ago.  The poor little thing was riddled with cancer and suffering with Alzheimer’s related dementia. I’m not ashamed to say I cried a lot when she died.  I helped take care of her for the past year and a half when it became clear that she and her husband had to have someone with them 24 hours a day.  The last thing I said to her before she died was, “I love you.”  She whispered back, “I love you too.”  Good night sweet little Mildred.  You will be missed.

I dreamed Janina and I were dating

And boy was I pissed off when I woke up out of that dream before we could even make out.

Current celebrity crush

Carrie Coon.

Some new works

‘The spirit that saved Linda’ (acrylic on 24x20" canvas).

‘Sexxy Cat Champion Again!’ (mixed media on 24x18" canvas).

Goodbye Uncle Bob

I will never forget the kindness you showed to me and my family.  You made our lives in Detroit brighter and better.  And thank you to your wife Aunt Gail for staying by your side and taking such great care of you right up until the end.  You both are special people.

It's a good start

I would add that all gun owners must purchase insurance for each gun that pays the medical bills of anyone who is shot with their weapon(s).

Bullshit

Sparky and I are both atheists and we've been together for over 25 years. 

Such a beauty

Don't know when I'll feel like getting back to regular blogging, if ever, so in the meantime, enjoy Jennifer Connelly.  She gets better and better as she ages.   

Teach your children well

Happy fucking new year

I'm still cranky as fuck and I will be until we get some closure with the old folks. This pulp tentacle porn makes me less cranky. 

Canadian of the month

CJRT's Garvia Bailey.

Fuck this shit

Fuck off 2017.  My personal misery index is off the charts and that orange asshole in the White House along with his enablers in Congress just fucked us all even harder than ever before with that tax scam.  I'm sick of it all.

Rest in peace free and open internet

#ResistTrump #OverthrowtheOligarchs

This is the end my friend

The day of the Army/Navy football game is the worst college football Saturday of the year. It's always a shitty game between two suck ass teams that no one outside of military families gives a shit about. And it means that the season is well and truly over. Hurry up and get this athletic abortion over with and bring on the meaningless bowl games.

Antipodean hottie of the year

Michala Banas.

Give your throat a rest by smoking more!

Spud must have been a dud since it's no longer around.

Crazy old ads from the 1940's

I'm too lazy to blog properly these days. 

Bovine advice is the best advice

Happy Thanksgiving.

Burn baby burn

Fingered.

Mid century tanks, oops, I mean cars

Big was the operative word back in the day.

I love vintage street scenes

Mid century Chinatown in San Francisco.

Get you some of this

One of the five digital downloads I bought today.   Imani Coppola rules.

Current mood watching Trump's administration implode

It's a great day in the USA

Trump cronies indicted in Muller's Russia probe, Trump's transgender ban gets struck down by a judge who noted that all the reasons Trump said we needed it were already proven false by the military, and the FBI is investigating how a tiny firm owned by Trump donors with two employees gets the no bid contract to rebuild Puerto Rico's power grid.

Minnesota used to be cool

 It's a frozen hellscape now though.

There's no cure like travel

I love these minimalist influenced mid century travel ads.

Serb of the week

The lovely Branka Katic.

Salon Fresh

'Salon Fresh' 

(acrylic and paper on 24x48" wooden panel)

One of my newest finished works

'NATIONAL BIRD NIGHT 2' (acrylic, paper, and wooden buttons on 24x48" canvas).

Mike Ditka says there's been no racial oppression for a hundred years, do you agree with him?

"Totally.  I haven't seen any oppression so it's obviously not there.  And I won't believe you if you try to show me any because people like Al Sharpton and the NAACP made it up in order to keep people stirred up and so they can make money off it."

"All that racial oppression ended when the slaves were freed.  Just ask any white land owner."

"Racial oppression?  If anything it's us white males who are racially oppressed.  Affirmative action is oppressing us, the women's movement is oppressing us, the gay rights crowd is taking away our freedoms, and the Negroes have joined forces with the Chinks, the wops, the drunken Indians, and the slopes to further take away our rights.  So hell yes, Ditka is spot on but the Jews in the media won't let him go further like I just did."

"Hang on, Mr. Ditka just recently disavowed those divise comments and said that yes. there has been racial oppression and that he hates discrimination of all kinds." 

"Ditka is a god damned race traitor!  He's in bed with the politically correct Black Lives Matter crowd.  He needs to be strung up for turning his back on the white race!  He will not replace us!  Land and freedom!  Fuck him and his blood libel!"
