prep, jock, or stoner?

remember when the world was a simpler place and everyone fit neatly into some easy-to-define pigeonhole? back in those days there wasn't a lot of crossover- you were either one thing or another. the punks thought the metalheads were stupid, the "preppies" thought they were better than everyone else and the jocks were a roving gang of neanderthals that beat up anyone that got in their way. ah, the eighties. then one day one of those punk kids showed up for school wearing a metallica t-shirt. a jock got a mohawk, or one of the headbangers decided to cut all of his hair off. things started to shift and kind of melt together, and the social divisions weren't as easy to delineate. or maybe i just graduated from high school and none of that stuff seemed to matter anymore. either way, back in those days i wouldn't have been caught dead wearing a polo shirt- my friends (i was in the punk camp) would have laughed me out of their group and the "preps" would have seen it as a pathetic attempt to fit in with theirs. thank god we've evolved beyond all that! these days you can listen to whatever the hell you want to and have a lot more freedom in how you dress without being immediately lumped in one category or another. and you know what? i like some polo shirts- they're comfy and stylish. but i think they look way cooler with one of our prints on them. so i went out and bought some used polos and printed some of our designs all over them. the result is prep school, a page that features the first few of these experiments. hope you like 'em.

tuesday preversions

another pic of jezebelle to perk up your morning.



yes, i'm still working on the zb undies, there are just a lot of obstacles to doing them the way i want them done. but they are coming!

so yeah, BSG the other night basically degenerated into a frakkin' soap opera. "oooh tigh, who do you love more? he never loved me, he loved you! you know who he REALLY loves? bill adama that's who! tell her you love her, tigh, she needs to hear it! show her your love!" for an old bald dude with an eye patch, this guy sure manages to pull a lot of high maintenance cylon ass. that's nice and everything, but can we get back to the actual story line now? i find myself wondering where the hell this is all going and thinking maybe they should have just cut things off last season. but despite a couple of episodes that were kind of dead in the water, it's still the best show on television right now and they haven't disappointed me yet. no matter how they wind things up, i'm sure it's going to be pretty impressive. maybe i'm just dreading the end- i find myself getting emotional now when i hear the theme music, because i realize there are only a few episodes left- and so i'm expecting to be blown out of my seat every time. ah well. granny was a power sander.

coming very shortly: the polo shirts i posted on ebay didn't sell, so i'm going to be making them available on here. and hopefully pins shortly after that as well. keep your eyes out for dradis contact.

MJcute

more pics of cute li'l krystle wearing her MJQ (yellow) shirt posted this evening. more to come.









if you haven't seen vbs tv yet, first of all you have no idea of what you're missing out on. secondly i am incredibly jealous of you because now you get to discover all of the amazing programs this online tv station, run by vice magazine, has to offer. it will consume your life and you'll never want to turn your television on again. well, my favorite show on vbs is definitely art talk, which as its title suggests explores the world of art and gives a lot of insight into the creative process of some of today's most brilliant artists. it may actually inspire you to want to create your own art, which i find it has done for me several times.

working on a brand new design, the print is kind of complex but i'm hoping to have them finished and posted hopefully by this time next week. yip!

alcoholics 'r' us

here in nova scotia where i live, alcohol isn't so much something people do to unwind now and then as it is a daily way of life. everyone's an enabler, and you don't have a problem unless you're face down in the gutter or beating your kids. now, i enjoy a couple of beers here and there as much as the next bluenoser, but i know a problem drinker when i see one. that's why i thought this huge picture that's posted outside a new liquor store near where i live was so funny.



might not look that strange when you first glance at it, but take a closer look at some of these peoples' faces:


little bleary, are we? i think she needs some sleep. for like 5 days straight.


hey haggard henrietta, why don't you ease back on the bottle for 5 minutes? might do you some good.


"dude! just one more bump! i swear i'm good to go! huhuhuhuhu!" could you do me a favor and just kind of not breath on me?


"what? i've only smoked 36 cigarettes today. has anyone seen my self-esteem?" yeesh.

wow, if this is supposed to be a way of enticing me to go get liquored tonight, i think i'll pass. if these are the best models they could find to promote the "drinking lifestyle" in our fair province, maybe we have a bigger problem than i thought.
