PASTOR RICK WARREN, OBAMA INVOCATION CHOICE

What if there was a Gay Divine Intervention against him during this pool photo op!

"He has repeated the Religious Right's big lie that supporters of equality for gay Americans are out to silence pastors. He has called Christians who advance a social gospel Marxists. He is adamantly opposed to women having a legal right to choose an abortion."
"Let me get right to the point," Joe Solomnese, the president of the Human Rights Campaign, said in a harsh letter to the president-elect, "Your invitation to Reverend Rick Warren to deliver the invocation at your inauguration is a genuine blow to LGBT Americans."

Other Things I Think He Should Swim With:

NEIL YOUNG AT MADISON SQUARE GARDEN

THESTEPHENSPROUSEBOOK.COM

Congradulations to my friends, the brothers Roger and Mauricio Padilha of MAO PR, who have come out with these gorgeous books on Stephen Sprouse. The website alone is amazing. Mauricio had actually collected massive racks of Sprouse for decades. It's an obsessive collection, which he still has beautifully preserved. When I served as the worlds oldest and most spaced out intern a couple of summers ago there, I knew doing all that Sprouse inventory without air conditioning would pay off! Book availabe on Amzon.com & everywhere.

I TOLD THEM

I was brutally honest with my loved ones about Christmas yesterday. I let them have it. I think the liberating effects are authentic, but the guilt and remorse will kick in i'm sure. But not yet, honey. All the women in my family are fiery (and beautiful) redheads. The closest depictions to my sister and mom's personality are pictured above.

MY NEWEST SCRIPT

I HOPE THE SHOE IS OK

Some rare violence on my blog. B*tch sure knows how to duck! Practice.

LITTLE CHRISTMAS

My roommate was so sweet to get this little thing. I set it up, perched on the Vuitton trunk, and arranged all the balls myself tonight. It looks great in front of the embroidered Montserrat Caballe in the black lacquer frame. She is the only voice - to HELL with Calas! She was made with a needle and thread one sequin tied on with a Swarovski at a time. It took me hundreds of hours and the back is like a map of my brain.


This is going to be prominently displayed in my household starting inauguration day. Love Phoenix House.

UMBRELLA HOUSE

A bit of ave. C history. Umbrella is one of the earliest squats and is just across the street from me. It was called Umbrella House because it had not roof and they used umbrellas. There are wooden police barricades built into the masonry. I have the utmost respect for Umbrella House and some friendships with it's tenants. I think they bought the building from the city for a dollar at something I don't know there's an article in the Times. The entire hallways are being hand steel brush painted and there are oil paintings of religious scenes 2x the height of my ceiling! And that's just the hallways, not inside the apartments. They've done a beautiful job.



At the top of the building they kept an original Anarchist political stencil made by... well someone who is a trip but probably wants to remain unknown. I can tell you that it is a stencil of Kembra Phaler of the Voluptuous Horror of Karen Black and the scoring across the images are gashes made by firemen and police during an inspection/raid back in the day. Law enforcement doesn't tend to like images of 'Molotov Cocktails'!

MY NEIGHBORHOOD IS CLASSY

I'M MARBLES

COUNTDOWN TO MY FREEDOM

I am getting closer to being done with the hideous medical treatment. Needles... I mean needlesS to say I don't have a date this Friday night sitting around making diagrams like the one above. Child, lately I can't give it away! A lonely old museum guard at the Metropolitan did tell me I had pretty eyes at the Beyond Babylon exhibit yesterday.


These new life size wooden cutouts of the Texan Hill family are totally bizarre to see on the Lower East Side. It's a huge display with a real wooden fence installed and even a nice astro turf trim at the bottom. Maybe because it's Houston street. Are the Hills from Houston, Texas? You do know that we pronounce Houston St. differently than Houston Texas? Is it political art? I can't imagine Fox would advertise like this. Today Hank was missing - somebody got him. I'm considering going by there and snagging Peggy tonight before someone else does.


HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA!


Nobody wants Bobby. I think this orphaned image will endure for a while.


OH NO THEY DIDN'T! I was coming home with groceries tonight and saw this! They weren't skilled enough to remove it and/or were just vandals because there was no reason to crack his wooden arms off to get the thing off. I think someone peeled the face off as a last desperate attempt, I don't know. I had nothing to do with this. RIP Bobby.

I get the chest crest colored in 2 weeks. There are two open spaces above the crest that need to be filled on either side of my neck. It is imperative that I have pre-paid artists working day and night on them right now so that the images may be applied early in the New Year. One side: Griffin with an inverted St.Michael spear. Other side: Lion with fish for a lower body holding an inverted trident. Some of the animals have dots, diamonds or little stars on them which I sort of liked. Really snotty animals. I promise never to look like the pic below. With all due respect to people who do this, never never never.
