Too cute

They had the cutest ads for under garments in the 1940s.

Before and after

I bought about 20 mid century magazines at an estate sale last week.  These awesome pictures are from an issue of Seventeen from May 1947.  I had no idea Seventeen used to be an oversize magazine.   It struck me as I was going through it and choosing what to scan from it, that my mother was a teenager in 1947, so she may had owned a copy or seen a copy of this same magazine on the newsstands in Detroit. 

I feel like Faye Marsay and I would be a great couple. What do you think Faye?

That's my girl. 

Vera Miles

Vera Miles, one of the beautiful women who ever lived.  Fuck you with a rusty chainsaw if you disagree with me.

Hey old white folks, when should you call the police on black people?

 "As soon as they show up."

 "When they get loud and threatening?"

"When their men leave with out making sure the women they're sexually pleasuring has an orgasm." 

"Hang on, did she just admit she has sex with black males?  I had no idea the extent that they were sexing up our ugly older women." 

"When they offer you their overly spiced foods and then demand that you agree with them when they say that their lives matter."

"Ummmm, when you see them break the law."  

A new work in progress

Adrenaline junkie of the week

She's got more guts than people half her age. Well done on the zip-lining lady.

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.
