Rick Gush's Rapmaster Pinocchio


I got this picture from Rick Gush, who also sent me a cat food box full of things to play with and covet. Called "Rapmaster Pinocchio" made out of what appears to be concrete.


Sadly, Rapmaster Pinocchio's burgeoning career was cut short last Friday night, when he was found submerged in the bottom of the Bay. It appears to be foul play, but police have no leads at this time.


Apparently Rick filmed it, and calls it "Outlaw Art 5 meters Under the Surface."


10 Jigawatts of Awesome.

A postcard from Koco


Koco, who in the past sent me a nipple, is apparently now living in Japan, which is pretty awesome in itself. This is a beautiful post-card though, she says she picked it up at the Tokyo "Design Festa."

It says on the back in English, that it's called "bird", and it's got a link to 2 websites:



and



And to answer your question, Koco, yes, I named my nipple "Gimpy's replacement."

Jeremy Jams responds with awesomeness



I was very impressed by this of Jeremy's. The last couple were watercolors, which while not my thing, were of good quality, but this is right up my alley. It has a bit of everything, some Geometric art, A nice quote, some wordplay, and something that I can't identify. The item I can't identify (that little red/black circle-ey thing) won it for me. I love things that I can't identify.


The quote, written on the "genetic DNA strand thingy", reads:


"In serving the wicked, expect no reward, and be thankful if you escape injury for your pains."


Quite right Jeremy, quite right indeed.
