• Commented on Zoomable cell size application helps you understand size of tiny things
  This is a truly cool visualization. I played with this for a while trying to get a better feel for the relative scale of things. Reminds me of Powers of Ten...

  @ Tezcatlipoca So there was a reason I got the image of you holding an obsidian blade....
• Commented on Father kidnaps daughter's killer
  @ JB NicholsonOwens Thanks for taking the moral high ground. You may have it. I prefer to insure that my genes get passed on to the next generation, and the generation after that. I'm not putting all of my emotional...

• Commented on Sikh Holy Men Wearing Spectacularly Large Turbans
  And in this modern day and age, with all the Internets you can eat, you don't have to go far to find out anything. This is especially true of the Sikhs, who have been very actively reaching out to the...
• Commented on Sikh Holy Men Wearing Spectacularly Large Turbans
  It seems to me that the Sikhs have a pretty good sense of humor about the turban tradition: http://www.ratemyturban.com/...
• Commented on 86-year-old WWII vet on gay marriage: "What do you think I fought for in Omaha Beach?"
  Wisdom on display here. This makes me feel hopeful that rational thought will win the day here. There's a strong progressive tradition in the North East that includes equal-marriage backing institutions such as the Unitarian Universalists Association and the United...

  We're up to 3,140 signatures. We need 10,000. http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/art-does-not-excuse-rape-polanski-must-face-justice...
• Commented on Thoughts for Polanski apologists, by another woman raped at 13.
  Let us not forget that Polanski was charged, plead guilty, then fled the country. We don't have to charge him again for a crime he already plead guilty to. He goes straight to sentencing. He might be charged with additional...
• Commented on Thoughts for Polanski apologists, by another woman raped at 13.
  I really feel very strongly about this. Polanski must be extradited from Switzerland and sentenced in a US court. I've been trying to rile up a friend of mine who is an adjunct professor of Women's studies, I figured she...
• Commented on Jim Carroll interview from 1987
  Pulled out my wife's copy of Void of Course and I have to say I am enjoying re-reading it quite a bit. With lines like this how could I not? You'll always be trapped luminous in my vectors The vicarious...
• Commented on The great punk poet Jim Carroll has died.
  If I could break through I could be certain But this obsession is like some fiery curtain All the numbers reduced to zero And those who died young, they are my heroes They are my heroes, they took the walk...
• Commented on Battle of The Billboards in LA: Giant Boozy Ladyparts are OK, Criticizing Insurance Companies Ain't.
  This image was part of the Absolut "Streams" ad campaign for new, all natural fruit flavored vodkas. http://www.adweek.com/aw/content_display/creative/news/e3i3dd1b5aef655211d7aa0db16b70f5400 http://www.absolutads.com/?p=841 http://www.advertolog.com/absolut/print-outdoor/ciitron-streams-198172/ IMHO, there is a commonality to all of the images in the campaign. Personally, I like it, even if I've...

• Commented on Double Nickels on the Dime by the Minutemen turns 25.
  Great album! I have many happy memories of putting the coffee on and dropping the needle on this while I was working on writing fanzines. I'd put this album up there with London Calling as far as how much it...

  This is beautiful, I always loved this cover. Makes me reminisce back to a time when I lent my bass cabinet to MDC....
• Commented on Review: Wüsthof electric knife sharpener
  In this economy, $200 for a sharpener is a little dear. You might want to check out the Chef's Choice sharpeners, such as the Model 110 which goes for around $85 and does the same thing. I have also heard...
• Commented on Prop Hate
  I'm a fallen-away Unitarian. Hardcore Punk provided me with a sense of community from my early teen years through the end of my 20s. Thinking about going back, though... It seems like it is not enough just to have a...
• Commented on Antifascist collages that made Hitler crazy
  John Heartfield is a very influential artist and propagandist for peace. I think every photomontagist published in Maximum Rock'n'Roll or other hardcore punk zines in the 80s was straight-up mining Heartfield's claim. I remember reading a book entitled "Art Against...
• Commented on JG Ballard (1930-2009)
  #10 I failed to mention Empire of the Sun and The Kindness of Women at first, because you will likely feel compelled to read these autobiographical works after sufficient exposure to his fiction....
• Commented on JG Ballard (1930-2009)
  #10 I would start with Crash, which is based in part on Ballard's 1970 exhibition of crashed cars. It was pure genius: How JG Ballard came to write Crash I also really enjoyed his novels The Crystal World, High Rise,...
• Commented on JG Ballard (1930-2009)
  My brother introduced me to JG Ballard by getting me a copy of The Atrocity Exhibition on RE Search press over a decade ago. Since then, I've read everything of his that I could get a hold of. Looking at...

  And then you find that one of the candies had a jagged fragment of glass in it. I think this unicorn chaser needs a Throbbing Gristle Chaser...
• Commented on Unicorn Chaser
  You absolutely have to let me know who the music was by. It's like listening to a bag of Starburst fruit candy that you have unwrapped and are jamming by the handful into your piehole....
