Hey, look over here!! Your eyes don't deceive you!



Yup, I posted a new GoM photo. And to celebrate my release from priso-err, my return from a sabbatical in the Andes Mountains consulting Tibetan monks on the meaning of life (It's still 42 in case you were wondering) I've posted a photo with ACTUAL grapefruits!!

That's up to 25% of your daily allowance of vitamin C. You don't just learn here, you get healthy. Also, you can get in shape doing milk-jug curls and lots of push-ups out in the prison yard. That one was a freebie for you kids.

This is Jack. Who obviously has exquisite taste in clothing and bands. Jack is sporting part of the Fall collection from SWARM OF EYES. It's called Moth Skull, and it can be found for sale at http://swarmofeyes.com on the Merchandise page.

I have to point out that if you click on the picture and look at the larger version you can see a large pair of toe-nail clippers on the table. That's just gross. And who took this picture anyway? Did they not even bother to get their ass off the couch to take the photo? I don't have time to crop out your Glade candle and messy living room, people. Community service takes a LOT of time.

Thanks to Jack for making a brutal GoM face and for supporting my band, SWARM OF EYES. Now go buy a CD, kid.

EPIC AND BR00TAL!!


This latest GoM photo was taken in the Garden of the Gods national park on Colorado Springs, CO. There are many GoM pics from that day taken with my good buddies Heather B and Tim C. I'll post more as time goes on. I could probably spend a month just posting those.

But this was my absolute favorite and I had to post this right away. For all of you to see. Which is no one yet. Hmmmm...anti-climactic.

I can't believe I've ventured into the blogging world...


I assume that I'll get tired of this after a while and my posts will go from daily to once a month...until I get bored of it completely and don't update it at all.

Unless I get a MASSIVE following and people are hanging on my every word and photo.... which is about as likely as me drinking the bottle of Purell next to me on my desk.

So the purpose of this blog is to post photos of me or other people in the very obscure pose nicknamed "Grapefruits of Metal". It seems to have originated in the cold northern wilderness of Scandinavia with the very....colorful...black metal bands. Guess it gets boring in Norway. Just picture every photo with the power of metal glowing forth from the outstretched palm...

I think it jazzes up a photograph and it's my way of making a boring posed photo more fun. So over the past few years I've taken to striking the pose with famous people, with friends, in foreign countries, etc.

Did I just type "jazzes"??? I think I'm actually nervous posting a blog. I think I'll just keep reminding myself that no one will be reading it, so I have nothing to be embarrassed about.

Anyway, here is the first photo (I think...I'm still figuring this shit out), me with George Romero. He played along nicely, but as the photo is being taken if you look really closely he's saying, "What the FUCK am I doing??". Seriously. I think he wanted to punch me.

Which is AWESOME.
