Hookers or Cake

Where the self-obsessed get serious about silly
I'm too wacky to be hip.

    • ------------------------------------- How this blog got its name

      ------------------------------------ There was a large painting of Evel Knievel shaking hands with Richard Nixon. It hung in the Mayors office. Late one evening after everyone went home. I took it down to the lab. I zoomed in on Evel’s left eye a 100x and enhanced it. It was an address. I went to the address. It was a modest, 1970’s style, split level ranch home in the suburbs.

      ----------------------------------- Inside I found a dead parrot lying on a waterbed. I revived the parrot with some saltines and adrenaline. We became good friends. The parrots name was Randy. One night a few years later while Randy and me played Gin Rummy, he sang me a song about a fire. The title of this blog was never mentioned but I sensed it, and Randy confirmed it by giving me ‘THE LOOK’.

            Sometimes when I’m in the bathroom I catch a curious glance of myself in the mirror. It always startles me. Like I’m someone else completely. I’ll look closer but its just me staring back at myself bewildered. If I close my eyes I can sometimes hear a voice. Sometimes I record the voices and write out what they have to say. I think this one is David Lynch. It sure sounds like him.  He talks about art and darkness alot. The entire focus should be to let your heart or head or perhaps some shadow inside of yourself get hit in such a way that it resonates like a gong. The vibration of which exposes an infinite aspect of circular truth. The true wonder and enjoyment of the creative experience is knowing that you’ll never comprehend it and by relaxing into the intuitive feeling that it all makes such incredible sense that you’ll never be able to forget it. It exists now as an eternal form of art whether you like it or not.
