House of the Naked Davids! Campy LA Landmark up for Sale

Posted on August 17, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Norwood Young's "House of the Naked Davids"

Nineteen naked “Davids” festoon the Hancock Park residence of Norwood Young. The huge reproductions of Michelangelo’s famous statue have not always been popular with Young’s neighbors. His decorating choices have made him the subject of several lawsuits over the years. He notes of the sale: “It’s up to the new owner to decide what to do with all the David statues.” For the LA Times article, plus a video of the strange spread, click here.

The Amazing Artman! Richard Bolingbroke launches new Website…

Posted on August 17, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Richard Bolingbroke. Lost. 2009. From the series "Art is a Four Letter Word"

Friend of this site Richard Bolingbroke has launched a new website. Bolingbroke says of his series Art is a Four Letter Word: “Words and images are the two main ways we communicate and understand the world around us. In these paintings I explore the interplay of words and images in an effort to understand both the innate tension that exists between these two methods of defining and recording ideas, and the bond that they can create with intellect and sensation.” His new site is live, here. Enjoy!

Damn Vinegar! Jesus Christ is on the Internet and is following us on Twitter!

Posted on August 10, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Jesus Christ - Twitter Avatar

Breaking internet meme: this site was surprised when one of its associates was notified that his newest Twitter follower was none other than Jesus Christ Himself! With a tag line of “Follow Jesus in your life and on Twitter” J.C. seems to have appeared on the internet just this morning. None of His posts are older than an hour, but this son has been busy. He goes by @JesusProphet online and has already tweeted at Lady Gaga that she looks “like the cowardly lion.” Seemed like a compliment! Other choice bits include “White people are funny, they really think I am one? Come on, get a map.” and “I think I’m starting to get splinters.” You can find Christ on Twitter @JesusProphet. And yes, we are following Him back.

UPDATE: RIP JC of the Internet. After a mere two-hour existence on-line, Jesus Christ has had His Twitter account suspended. Religious satire lives fast and dies quick on the Internet. More to the story…no doubt.

Today in “Pop” Culture: DILFs – Why Not?

Posted on August 9, 2011 by | Leave a comment

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Words, words, words. William Burroughs said: “Language is a virus from Outer Space.” That would explain a lot! Everything is written on context-sensitive paper, anyway. What do we think of when we hear the term “Hot Dad?” A sexy Leatherman with a grown-up “boy?” Or an attractive father with young children? Something else? We all hear with our own ears. And it’s all translation. MILFs spawned DILFs. It was bound to happen. This slide show was pulled from internet search results for “DILF.” For the pop-culture-challenged, that would be “Dad I‘d Like to Fuck.” More where these came from! Famous and obscure. That’s the web for you. Like ’em? Check out the specialty sites – like Daddy Complex.
