All of you doubters can suck on this video! So, now ask yourself how important it will be in the future to remain friends with me. Unlike you, I have been thoroughly preparing for the zombie apocalypse since I was a wee little laddy.

See if this vid doesn't freak you out a bit.

Okay, not exactly but this is still pretty cool for all of us foot doctors.

These are shoe-forms kept by the designer Salvatore Ferragamo of some of the most famous stars of the good ol' days. Pretty cool if you ask me.

Anatomical paper art

Pin It
I came across this stellar art series when I was surfing streetanatomy.com and couldn't help but re-post it. There is about anatomical art that gets my geek flag waving! The human body is incredibly beautiful and I love it when someone captures it well in a work of art. Some people think it's creepy but I've been called worse... by my own kids.



The artist is Lisa Nilsson and you can see some of her work at the Boston University Art Gallery show "Teaching the Body". Believe it or not, these pieces are made from a bunch of tiny rolled up bits of paper.

Girl got moves

It surely surprises no one that there are plenty of girls who could pack a whooping on my arse. This is another little princess who would be celebrating a KO on me should she desire to pummel my face. It scares me that my daughter might beat me up like this one day. And honestly, I am half tempted to try and train her to do it.

Book Review: Useless Landscapes, or A Guide for Boys: Poems by D.A. Powell

Useless Landscape, or A Guide for Boys: Poems by D.A. Powell
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

There is no doubt that D.A. Powell is a gifted poet. His verses are lyrical and beautiful and he creates vivid depictions of California landscapes in the early poems of this collection. At first I found myself in love with this collection until further in it because looser and more juvenile. Fantastic imagery was replaced by crude depictions of casual same-sex debauchery.

While it is undeniable that Powell has a way with words and can make any situation musical and witty, I personally didn't find the subject matter of several of the poems endearing or relatable. While other reviewers have called these poems 'homosexual love poems', they weren't even that. They were depictions of random vulgar sexual experiences. While I agree that these topics may have merit for poetry in the eyes of many people, I found myself uninterested and unimpressed during these specific poems which was unfortunate because the other stuff in this collection was quite good.

Overall this collection felt like a weird disjointed mix of a homosexual campfire poems and another side of beautifully scripted poetic landscapes. Not sure I can recommend this book overall to many people besides my LGBT friends but I may perhaps check out another selection by Powell.
