Back on my bullshit
Flora watercolors by Hilma af Klint
Jon Stewart compliments my bandmates.

We’ve been playing Asbury Undergound for maybe 10 years now. This year we played a set just before a long time friend Rick Barry who’s new project, Church and State TM, happens to have Jon Stewart as their, functional if not impressive, drummer. After our set I went back to the green room to put my trombone away and a man, whom I’ve respected for years, reached out and shook my hand and said “You guys were fucking awesome!” So I’ve got that going for me…
What a nice experience
I definitely read that in his voice.
Amazing!

I'm pretty sure I've told this story around these parts before...
When I moved to MV in 2001 I lived for a few months at the home of my boss and his wife, who happened to be the sister of Daphne seen above. A few weeks after I arrived I was coming in from the outdoor shower wrapped in a towel and there in the kitchen of the house was Princess Vespa. She was super nice. 😊

When Things Were Rotten

Television cast photo of a Robin Hood parody
In 1975 Mel Brooks' "When Things Were Rotten" brought his freewheeling style to television. America wasn't ready and the constraints put on him by the network didn't really help him.
Quickly cancelled but to a kid who wasn't allowed to watch his films, it was a lifeline and a hint of what was to come

phone pic of two large eyed cats in a basement window of a brick apartment building, looking straight at the camera. the cat on the left is grey striped and smaller; the cat on the right is orange and round-faced. behind them are closed blinds. a desolate assed yard and the reflection of the photographer, an even more desolate assed human, can be seen
two new windows creepers in my building this evening, making *serious* eye contact, plus some asshole in a patagonia cap

Great shot!
Meanwhile the homeowner is inside looking out. Nice image, reflections and shadows, the full picture.
This picture is fantastic! I especially like the way the reflection is doubled by the glass and split by the blinds.

The painting Edward VI as a Child by Hans Holbein the Younger. Edward's face is replaced with mine.
I'm working on new projects for next year's classes.
"Some of you may fail, but it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make."
@Xedrik, I tell all of my classes "I want you to fail!" Failing means you tried to do something you weren't sure you could do. I'm much happier (and give better grades) when a student makes an effort on a project (even if it "doesn't work") than if they give "good work" that didn't challenge them.
The other day I heard Brian Eno say something that I'm going to use as my classroom motto this year: "I can't do this well, so let's see what interesting ways I can fail at it."

diptych of black and white photos: two young boys sitting adjacent to one annother outdoors on a grassy hill, both curly haired. one is wearing a vest and bow tie, with a pin that says "ring security"; the other is wearing a palm tree patterned button-down shirt. in the top photo the two boys are leaning in, looking at something one boy is holding. in the lower photo, both are looking at the camera, with one pointing out of frame and the other holding a round object over his eye
my youngest brother's wedding was last weekend, indeed a familial stressfest on all ends, but also lovely in a few fleeting moments.
both of my younger brothers have sons, born only about a month apart, who never got to meet each other until that weekend. they were hamming it up the whole time and i was there to delight in it.

These are excellent portraits!
Love to know where on earth there are mansard roofs like that. Got to be a university campus ...
@nikkuneko It is times like these that start to make the stress, of all the other times, just a bit more bearable.
My children and grandchildren bring me joy that I did not expect when I was smashing away down the salt mine.

An animated gif of Gene Wilder and Peter Boyle in white tie and tails on stage from "Young Frankenstein". Boyle is hollering "SUPER DUPER!"
#Mel brooks turns 100! Post a gif a fav movie of his in his honour.
The first time I saw this scene I laughed until I choked.

Peter Boyle is so fucking funny in this
Gene had to fight for this scene and I contend it is the funniest thing ever put to film. I mean, after all that, who brings rotting veggies to a black tie science demonstration?
@dapete that's one of the little things that makes repeated watches fun
No!
