Art Rock of Love

The Artist Formerly Known as “The Star Child

The Paintings Formerly known as Blank Canvases

Part of the joy in sharing this is the fact that he had a “show” at the Wentworth Art Gallery at the Riverside Square Mall in Hackensack NJ.

For those of you who don’t know, an art show opening at the Riverside Square Mall is a little like the ribbon cutting ceremony at a local supermarket. I worked at that supermarket for a while. Made me wish Lex Luthor was successful in 1979. Good for Hackensack, bad for Paul Stanley.

I wonder if he went to the Couch House Diner across the highway afterward? Or got an after hours tour of the U.S.S. Ling? At least he’s not wearing a babushka on his head pretending he’s not bald.

Please to enjoy the tackiness.

Happy Valentime’s Day



Well Meant Misogyny

She’s so hot…BOOM!

I’m Not Crying

Where the music, humor and ugly of the Tenacious D, The BeeGees, Demetri Martin and Lord of the Rings intersect is where Flight of the Conchords meet.

My wife and I found this beauty at the local mega-Goodwill store. It had all the features listed but even better in real life. We appreciated the idea of someone combining several great American institutions. Christmas, commercialism, snow globes and a little love. It looks like a sincere effort. You ask: Why would someone give this away? My guess is that they lost it. Just turn baby Jesus upside down and shake him until he develops seizures. Lose yourself in the realistic glitter snow falling on Nazareth during the first Christmas.
