Fun Packaging 2.0

























I was once
of children design. (From a package containing a rainbow-coloured xylophone toy the size of my palm.)

Carl Asks Owen To Do Celine

A journey to the end of the bloody ballroom with no room to breathe.
















Here's a small video of Mr. Pallett at the Gladstone Hotel Ballroom for the launch of our Carl's (above right and out of focus) new book, "Let's Talk About Love, A Journey to the End of Taste". It's bumpy and it's just the chorus, but it moved me, dammit. I couldn't keep my hand still.

Veni Vidi Oh My















Veni Vidi O happens every few months... Usually because it can. We were very happy with the particular December 29th happening.
















2007 Catch Up 1.0

Things to file under WTF: You know when you watch a DVD of a television series so much that the dialogue turns up in the course of normal conversation? Well, that's Arrested for me. In December, I had a pretty wacky 'flu that lasted more than a week. It made me become far more deeply acquainted with what I now understand to be an entirely unreasonable obsession...

This is the actress Mo Collins, playing the "business model" that's brought in to represent the "Bluth Homes, Solid as a Rock"campaign. Are those bruises on her ar
m? It looks like somebody tried to give her a solid hickey (what we call 13-year-old bonafied lovin') and missed. Either that, or she got pinched for like, 30 minutes. Take your pick.















...And say what you will about the tiresome onslaught of political correctness, but I'm actually kind of surprised the show got away with this one. I suppose it would be an official racial "you all suck" slur if it was pluralized. Still though, it's pretty fucking strange, and not even as close to funny as White Power Bill.
