I don't really do much lately but start short stories that I don't finish, and job hunt. And it's mostly the latter. Times are kind of simple. Hunter's friend Ben brought the screener of this movie over the other day and I really appreciate that he did. It's the best film I have seen all year. Thank you Sweden.

Watch the above link. Once second left! Are you kidding me? I love you Moss!

This is the first thing I want to buy, this "Racerback Swing Vest" from Free People. Isn't it great?

Would you believe I had to take a picture of it with my camera phone because it wasn't in the online catalogue? Nov. 08, coming soon. ... Go Barack!

But I'm not immature, I've been through some shit. I can remember sitting on my friend's bedroom floor when I was fifteen while she tried to drive a needle through my nose to make room for a nose ring. It hurt pretty bad regardless of the ice and the vodka, and the stress of her mother walking into the room. I'm now 31, with lots of life experience like that. And it looks pretty clear to me, to my well-trained eye, like this chic carved a backwards B into her own face. I don't have to be a scientist, or a reader, to figure that out.

And when I say she did it herself, I mean she had some little white geek do it for her. She claims a giant black man did it. But that's not true. I know this for a fact because if you were attacked by a 6 foot 4 black man, I really don't think he would ask you to sit on his knee while he took out his army knife to widdle a nice little stencil on your face, in front of a bank camera. Give me a break! Also, that black and blue eye is nothing compared to what he would have given you. Your face would be broken. Broken. I'm not speaking from experience of having been in a fight with a giant black guy. You know why, because really big huge black guys don't go around attacking white girls. They'd  rather smoke pot, or go to college, or be famous celebrities. But they don't care about you Ashley Todd. As a matter of fact they avoid you like the plague.

See Ashley, I've read "To Kill a Mockingbird." Obviously you were never a reader. So I'm at least a little bit better than you. I'm pretty sure that every black man in America knows you don't attack white women in this country without suffering the wrath of white America. You don't even not attack white women without suffering the wrath.

So thanks for sharing your picture Ashley Todd. It's good to know what you and your creepy little republican boyfriend do while practicing abstinence on a Thursday night. Good to know. And if you're trying to blame Big Black from Rob & Big, you can just step off. Because we all love him.

Picture me sitting on a soft lawn on a soft Los Angeles night with good friends and bummed wine watching "Pee Wee's Big Adventure" at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery. There's really nothing dead about the place, tombstones irregardless. There was so much life, and love and happiness in the air that I actually started to believe in this world again. It was a "happening," I think that's what they would have called it in the 60's. To see hipsters get up and dance when the "Tequila" song came on... it made me realize, Pee Wee is a hipster...

It's funny. It thought Michelle Obama's suits and dresses have been nice, but safe. Cute but "eh." If you look up the brains behind Obama's threads, Maria Pinto, a lesser known designer than Cindy McCain's Escada or Oscar de la Renta, you'd be surprised. She's kind of subversive. The lady is out there and I love it. Pinto's fall 08 line is like drunk-flapper-girl-has-to-go-on-a-date.

It's the unvanquished Taliban. The older I get the more I realize what a tragedy the last 8 years were. And now that I'm aware, the more I read about this group's doings the more I cringe. I cannot be sharing the same air as these "people". Just look at this article: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/europe/article4675361.ece. Here they are dressed in the clothes of the French men they killed, taking pictures. Barack has made a promise to find them. Bush and McCain harp on Iraq still after all of these years while these monsters rape and pillage all over Afghanistan. A fading economy and a mass murderer roaming free. 8,000 troops to Afghanistan? All of our troops to Afghanistan. It doesn't matter. If McCain/Palin wins I'm moving to Brazil. This is no longer the country my parents taught me to love. This will cease to be a country I can be proud of and in all honesty, I don't want to share a country where the majority likes someone like Palin. And it's not that people even like her, they just refuse to take the time to read about her. I used to be the same way. But after 8 years of this and a collapsing economy? Come on! How lazy can you be? If you're not sure, vote Barack. If you're positive you want McCain/Palin, tell me why. I have a sneaking suspicion that the republicans and the Taliban are in kahoots.
