New Year's resolution? Not really, I am pretty happy with my 1136 x 640.

(Same joke, right?)

At the intersection of people who love Abba and people who love Sepultura are people who love both.

(btw, 2013 was a good year, I lent about $3800 to people and got most of them back. Drop me a line if you wanna join - I'll happily invite you).

Pretty much all the fun of yoga is in those yoga pants.

I'll fly you to the moon

I wanted to call this "social networking" but I liked the caligraphy of "2" so there you are

Actually it's just an angry fish.

I am recovering from a bad dream.

Hypothetically speaking, if one were to quit smoking cigarettes and start puffing electronic ones, what’s the most desirable aroma? Asking for a friend.

Years ago, they put one of my photographs on a cover of a book with credit going to a website that doesn't exist anymore. It was something like this:



I hope nobody reads that book.

Just few days ago we celebrated one year since the end of the world from December 2012. How time flies, oh how time flies when you're dead!

I saw this guy today and had to take his picture

I was up early to check, but damn you Santa, no painkillers at all??

I bet this holiday season is a very appropriate time for suicide.

"Or to put it another way, we should focus less on horrible people we don’t know and more on ways we ourselves are horrible.”

This is why Santa got lost

It's Jul. Or Nochebuena.

WTF or WTH? Or What the What?

Why are snails climbing up the walls? Is it suicidal or just a manifestation of sunk cost effect?

Brian: Please, please, please listen! I've got one or two things to say.
The Crowd: Tell us! Tell us both of them!
Brian: Look, you've got it all wrong! You don't NEED to follow ME, You don't NEED to follow ANYBODY! You've got to think for your selves! You're ALL individuals!
The Crowd: Yes! We're all individuals!
Brian: You're all different!
The Crowd: Yes, we ARE all different!
Man in crowd: I'm not...
The Crowd: Sch!

My favourite Xmas movie is of course Life of Brian. Goes perfectly with a bottle of schnaps.

They made this so even kids can see the lie

Or the poetry of the legend as some will argue.

All I want for Christmas is a little red and shiny bag, made of or made not of silk, having or having not golden threads woven in but packed with a nice collection of pain killers from around the world.

You know how the media are. They wait for a mistake and that's all you are. It happened to Hitler. No one ever talks about his paintings.

Sorry for not explaining myself enough: I am not mocking god. It's very likely god doesn't exist. I am mocking you.

The Ship of Fools

Along came Mr. Goodtrips
Looking for a new ship.
Come on people better climb on board
Come on babe we're going home.
Ship of fools, Ship of fools.

One blond and the other one dark haired, about 5-6 yo: few days ago I met Odin and Jesus in the playground. They were completely unaware of their greatness. Not far away, Titus and Thomas.

These might work as well

131215

Both Jesus and Santa Claus were white and both were historical figures as well. That's just verifiable facts.

There's nothing like a thick vertical red line

[..]
Some people have got to paint and draw
Harry had to work in clay and stone
Like the waves coming to the shore
It was in his blood and in his bones
Ignored by all the trendy boys in London and in Leeds
He might as well have been making toys or strings of beads
He could not be in the gallery

And then you get an artist says he doesn't want to paint at all
He takes an empty canvas and sticks it on the wall
The birds of a feather all the phonies and all of the fakes
While the dealers they get together
And they decide who gets the breaks
And who's going to be in the gallery
[..]

(In the gallery)

The legend of Jesus

We create our superstitions out of nothing or ignorance, we maintain them via "tradition" or "culture" and eventually we become afraid of our own lies. Friday the 13th is just one of them.

Listen kid, but of course Santa loves all good boys and girls, except that he loves much much more the rich ones.

this is how, a day like this, the "guardian angel" was invented

If you tend to project yourself too much in the future you may use wine to keep you in the present. Drunk, but in the present. There ain't no medicine with no side effects, right? Which reminds me of my liver, again.

This wine tonight, it remembered me of my grandfather.

Everywhere you go, always take your music with you

They actually misunderstood Jesus

I am not a very disciplined individual. And not very focused either. Rather chaotic I might say. I eat ice cream late at night (actually, just finished) and sometimes binge on alcohol. And cigarettes too. Then I go to yoga.

I rely mostly on a semi-educated intuition which is sometimes wrong. I need to make mistakes and get my hands dirty to learn something. I am a slow learner. A slow unfocused learner which forgets rather quick and a lot. Still can't make super-sharp photographs after years of fiddling.

Or maybe not, maybe what I believe is forgetting simply adds up to the intuition without my conscient knowledge. But I can't tell for sure. I am quite rigid but I want to be somehow elastic. I expect inspiration and creativity to visit me but I do little to give them directions. I read books and it happens at times to be in awe of others' genius. Same goes with music. Sometimes I am envious but don't want to try other people's shoes. Definitely don't want to make that effort.

All in all, it doesn't look like it but I am happy with myself. It's a cozy and warm place to be. It's my home.

Spending the night with Bill Callahan.

131202

I've seen this red, incandescent orange, bulbous shape of a gas like consistence and a little drop leaving it with an elegant blip, slowly floating to the right, towards a blueish black void. The drop was a metallic translucid gray.

It felt so real.

It felt like death.

I am not good enough to draw it, but I'll try.
