Let The Right One In

Ive just finished reading this book and well, I think it might be easily one of the best books I've read. It makes me really happy to think Morrissey was big part of it too, however they are not alike.

'Let The Right One Slip In'

Let the right on in
Let the old dreams die
Let the wrong ones go
They cannot do
What you want them to do

I highly recommend this book to any of you.
The film is out too, which I am yet to see, but will update you all when I do.

Clark & Michael

This show was recorded in 2007 by Clark Duke & Michael Cera. I honestly haven't found a funnier show apart from maybe Arrested Development. It's a shame this never got aired over here, but just so you guys can see it, i've posted it.

Bad or Good album covers?

I was looking around the Internet today and found something amazing. I remember when Sophie came to stay at my house she showed me this website of worse album covers of all time or something. I just found more. Definitely feel a project coming and I actually think their pretty cool.
Feast your eyes on THESE BABIES....(I've picked my favourites)









NOTE: I was going to put U2 on here, but I don't even want them on my page. U2 you disgust me.

Cool

Nothing will save you now

Nick found this webiste (Texas Department Of Criminal Justice)

http://www.tdcj.state.tx.us/stat/executedoffenders.htm

Pretty morbid, but it shows you all the men who have been executed in the state of Texas since the 80's. It also shows you exactly what their last statement was and what they were convicted for. Crazy what you can find these days pn the interent.

The day I turned 18, this guy was exectued.



"Yes sir, Warden Okay I've been hanging around this popsicle stand way too long. Before I leave, I want to tell you all. When I die, bury me deep, lay two speakers at my feet, put some headphones on my head and rock and roll me when I'm dead. I'll see you in Heaven someday. That's all Warden." - Douglas Roberts (executed on 20 April 2005)

Best thing that has happened today

I bought Iron Age tickets. Fuck Yeah.

Cheated

“No good friends, no bad friends; only people you want, need to be with. People who build their houses in your heart." - Stephen King

Paintings I did

I created these for my end of year show at Camberwell, but I thought i'd put them up again as i miss them. I left them hung in the hall as a kind of 'goodbye' I guess to my education. I kinda wish I did pick them up as I only have these crappy phone pics of them now. Bummer.
The first one is Sister Midnight, named after the Iggy Pop song on his Idiot album, fucking love that album. I like the idea of moulding animals and people. It seems right to me. The second is of Vinny P, a man after my own heart. Horror all the way. These were both done with acrylics, gotta love them acrylics! Actually, I don't think I like any other paint apart from poster.
This has reminded me of my next conquest...I want to produce a show with Reena and some others and I have a feeling with Halloween on the horizon it's going to be horror orientated...not that it would have been already.

I found this cool site

It's full of old photos people just send in dating from 1900's - 1980's ish. It's a little slice of old America. Reminds me of family I used to have or haven't seen in god knows how long. I use it alot and it makes me glad that people don't just throw away their memories.

This is my first time...

...blogging and I want to do a good job and that of informing you all of everything I can think of. I'm pretty sure this is like some online diary, but don't get excited though as I won't be getting all deep and secret splurging on you either. For now here is my favourite song of the moment. Enjoy.
