good Ol' Fran
I went to a Francis Bacon exhibit at the L.A. County Museum in 1990, it was my first exposure to his work and to absorb a single Bacon painting in person is one thing, Imagine 3 floors worth...Leaving the Museum that day I felt raw and somehow violated, to this day he is one of my absolute favorites...

Homage to Freaks & Photographer Diane Arbus
"Freaks was a thing I photographed a lot. It was one of the first things I photographed and it had a terrific kind of excitement for me. I just used to adore them. I still do adore some of them. I don't quite mean they're my best friends but they made me feel a mixture of shame and awe. There's a quality of legend about freaks. Like a person in a fairy tale who stops you and demands that you answer a riddle. Most people go through life dreading they'll have a traumatic experience. Freaks were born with their trauma. They've already passed their test in life. They're aristocrats."- Diane Arbus.

Catatonic Contraption
The Ultimate Slothing Gadget. . . A pillow with holes in it to channel sound to your ear. No need to get up to answer the phone, change TV channels or even eat. Now you can just lay there and hear everything you need to hear.
Only In America. . .
As if people weren't fat and lazy enough. . . Some idiot (or genius, actually) invented a holder for french fries that fits perfectly in your car. There's even a compartment for ketchup!

Extreme Comb Over
No Joke! This is a patent for a three way comb-over to cover a bald head. The US Patent Office actually issued a patent in 1975 for a method of combing your hair.
