Rose Parade Tomorrow

I plan on going early in the morning tomorrow to see the Rose Parade in Pasadena.  For some reason, I never thought it was so easy to access by transit.  But it is.  Soooo, I am going bright and early as it begins at 8am.  I am past the age of wanting to stay [...]

To Browse or not to Browse

I have been using firefox by mozilla.com for a few years now as it seems less of a resource hog than internet explorer when browsing the web.  But lately it seems slower to me.  So since I like playing with technology changes, I installed opera.  I like it as it seems faster and sleeker.  If you wanna [...]

Redid My Hair

Its a lot of work to wash and dye my hair so I tend not to do it unless it really has the hairspray built up so badly that it starts to look imperfect.  So after about two weeks, its time to wash, condition, dry, dye, set.  I sound like a hair dresser huh?  [...]

Melancholy before Holiday

Sister Erotica Psychotica enjoys a kiss from Dale

Just relaxing this weekend but holiday season is always kinda rough since I do not spend it with family back in the midwest or anyone else really. I guess I need some new friends. Anyone offer to be friends with the freaky artist?

WGA strike opinion, Cut the Crap

Okay here is my stand on this stupidity. The majority of writers for television shows and movies make handsome profits. Look at the woman who wrote the Harry Potter books. She was on welfare, and now she is a multi-millionaire! Ok she is a novelist not a screenplay writer, but you should get my [...]

Another LA Original

My friend and I were sitting in Starbucks and he told me to pull out the camera. Another in my freaky Diane Arbus series. I need to do lots more of these. You all would be amazed at how many freaks reside in los angeles.  Take note of the swastika tattoo on his head.

My Birthday

Buy me something expensive and nice!   Better yet,  just throw me piles of money

Diane Arbus, for you

This is the typical freak I see on mass transit and on the street daily. Gotta love them.  And yes, to answer a comment made by someone who does not understand, she obviously has had a hard life.  That is the point here , duh.

Senator Craig is GAY

Ok you big homo, quit being a liar while you stand next to your fat hillbilly wife.  Its time for you to admit what you did.  You hired male escorts, you sucked cawk in bathrooms, and you are pathetic.  You are the reason that men in this country cannot be comfortable with their sexuality.  [...]

Best in Show

Dog shows are so fun. All the pets get to be demeaned and made to wear stupid outfits. Here is what I mean.  See Above.  The look on [...]

End the War

(Luis Sinco/Los Angeles Times)

I usually am not a political type, but since I am a photographer, I do keep an eye on the news.  And I was particularly moved by the above photograph.  It shows the anguish of being in a war. It shows much more than that.  Study his appearance and you [...]
