Thought Not

WOO HOO!!!!

I have begun to run ads here on Thought Not as you can see on the right. Richard from PAYOR has graciously become my first paying advertiser! (Juan was a freebie to lube the chute as it were.)

This blogging shit rocks.

Go click on the ad!

And go buy a PAYOR thong. Send me a picture and I'll post it here. I swear. You'll be super-famous like Nicole Ritchie.

Basted in Blood

Back in 1997 Sarah McLaughlin and Ana Gasteyer performed the greatest Thanksgiving song ever on SNL. I've sent it out year after year to folks but lost the file somewhere along the line.

Alas -- I found it again tonight.

So ladies and gentleman -- get ready for:

Basted in Blood

We gather together
For yams, beans, and cranberry sauce.
But have you given much thought lately
To the turkey holocaust?
200 million noble birds
Slaughtered every fall.
Ainüt no difference between Hitler, Stalin,
And the folks at Butterball, Butterball.
So set your tables, America
From Birmingham to Branson.
But when you carve that turkey
You're a finger lickin' Charlie Manson.
Enjoy your pumpkin pie,
Your buttery Idaho spuds,
Grandma's chestnut stuffing,
And a turkey basted in blood.
Basted in blood
Basted in blood
Basted in blood
Enjoy your turkey, enjoy...
Basted in blood
Basted in blood
Basted in blood
Basted in blood
Basted in blood
Basted in blood.

Boo and Truman Throw Down

Here and here.

And for the record Scott, no -- I am not going to get a new rug or sofa til I move into my new place. I have a fuckin' puppy.

More Boo and Truman!

Rocco's Racism Makes Him Famous!

Go to Google.

Type in Gaysians.

Go Rocco Go!

Bears in Print

New York Magazine misses the point. I'm not quite sure what the point is -- but it isn't here. Andy makes a great point. If you are going to write and article on Bears, why interview only John Waters? I love John -- but spoofing bears in a movie doesn't make you an expert.

I guess I can;t blame David Colman this time. He's on deadline with his Vogue article on Bear Chic for Fall '07. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, David, Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. His article will feature Andre Leon Talley -- the original fashion bear and Azzadine Alaia -- the fashion world's own little cub.

Some Things

It turns out my Sustiva Dreams manifest themselves as celebrity interviews -- long in depth ones. I should write them down cause they care kinda funny.

Richard Aldrich left the gallery this week. I don't know why really and have no desire to speak ill of him. I love Rich and the work we have done together and I am tremendously saddened he left. It feels as much like a break up as anything I can imagine.

I am very, very sad.

I'm installing this week and there is a lot going on. More to report later this week when the ink is dry.

More to come.

Richard Hits a Home Run

Sustiva Dreams

4:40 AM: Found the link to my mothers blog. It was Hilarious. Now can't get back to sleep. Truman does not have this problem.

N.B. My mother does not have a blog. This was a vivid sustiva dream. Quit asking for the fucking URL -- it does not exist.

Some Shit

Lot's of changes around here -- I hate to categorize them as good or bad -- just change.

The construction started in the new gallery today. Going to check out the wall placement with Chad tomorrow.  We'll be moving January 6. It'll be here before you know it.

I had a personal and professional issue today that left me pretty sad -- but in the end --I make some people happy and others I don't. I do feel like running the gallery I work for the greater good -- I maintain a place for people who wouldn't necessarily have a place to show a place to have their work -- and some who would.

In the end I know where I drew my line in the sand was the right place for me. It really doesn't matter what the other person does -- I'm just trying not to take it personally -- which is hard.

Truman is a holy terror -- I left him out of the crate today twice when I went out and nothing got destroyed -- so that's a good thing.

Cheryl is home with her new baby Cascius.

Had dinner with Corey and Rocco. Juan is away. Got sweet calls from Kevin and Sully.

Even in the morass of human interaction -- all will work out fine in the end -- you can quote me on that.
