Brad Neely

I am so intrigued by this guy's illustrations and perspective. It is sorta evil and humorous and cute all in one.

GARLIC HARVEST!

So I finally got around to dealing with the garlic I harvested a few weeks ago. It has been drying in the shed. I cleaned it and braided the soft neck Inchelium garlic.





About half of it did a strange thing and developed cloves a few inches up the neck. I don't think that should happen cuz it made the neck hard up to those cloves making it not really good to braid but I hung it together anyway. You can see the weird braid on the left.



This is the hard neck Belarus garlic that I an not sure how to store so I left the stiff necks on them and arranged them upside down in a vase.

Grandpa and The Agave 1964

I love this picture of my grandfather posing with an Agave.... I think. He looks like a spaceman who has just landed and is proudly standing with some strange earth flora.

Wow! More Sheila please. The History of Love? Or is it the Love of History?

OK, everything about this video gives me a total boner! From the swirling psychedelic entrails behind her to the right sided peek-a-boo shrubbery to sheila's knee high boots over fitted pants to her white piped wide lapels. Sheila got it going on and the song isn't bad either! Leave it to the french for visual feasts.

Sheila Sunday

How come I have never heard of this french Sheila before? She is all over Youtube. Che PoP!-U-Lair!

You Just can't beat Macs

From The Lion's Mouth


I was driving thru the little village of Woodville yesterday after some grandparent cemetary flower pot maintenance and as I drove I spotted something that has been a fixture since I was in Jr. High. The Lion drinking fountain. It used to be located on the main drag but now is located down behind a pine tree in a sort of little park area. I just thought since it wasn't on main street anymore it had gone away. I thought it was cool as a kid. It was placed there by the local Lion's Club. It reminded me of a humorous story I wrote in Fast Food Janitor -The Zine.

Circa 1995 - Carol, one of the front line gals received a phone call from the Jr. High at about 11 PM in the morning, just before the lunch rush was about to start at Hardees. She hung up the phone and was weeping. I asked her what was wrong? She said she had to leave work and go down to the school because her son was in trouble. They were having a Fun Run where the kids were raising money for something and were paid per mile by running a course around the town and it seems that her son had stopped at the Lion drinking fountain and instead of getting a drink of water he decided to PISS in the lion's mouth. Carol was devastated. It floored me and I laughed out loud and tried to console Carol but me guffawing didn't help. It wasn't her kids first day at the rodeo. He was full of trouble and still is from what I read in the police report in the local paper. So the infamously violated lion still is around town but you may want to rethink your thirst level the next time you want a drink.
