A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Back real soon!

What, you thought I was gone? After a few days off working with Phil to get image submissions on BME totally caught up, I’m back here for ModBlog updates… almost!

That silly little tattoo is by Vicki at s2pot flash flesh in Kent, UK by the way… Anyway, I’ve got to go stash my car in a garage because the lock broke on it and someone’s going to steal it if I don’t hide it! Check back later today (an hour or two) because I have tons of great stuff in the queue (although of course if you’re a BME member you can peak around there and guess at which will make it here).

    I can relate. On Monday, in a rush, I snapped the key off in the driver’s side door because the auto button press wasn’t working. I’m thinking I should buy a car with completely keyless locks..

    The only bad thing about that would be if the battery in the transmitter went out or the actuator for the locks was without power for some reason the you would be S O L

    Hahaha, yeah, I can’t tell time. They ought to put me in a Geico commercial. I’m at it now.

    PS. My eye’s doing well — Josh said he’d send in an update of his, when I get that I’ll post mine too. I post updates on zentastic.com too for anyone that wants day to day, including an ultrasound!
