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.

Crazy Llamas


International man of mystery Craig Coupal checks in with these fancy new inner lip tattoos by Marty Lacombe, one of the fine artists at North Bay’s Live Once Tattoo. It really is interesting what hangs around in the ether and becomes something resembling a cultural institution, isn’t it? No offense intended to Messrs. Kutcher or Scott, nor to the gentlemen pictured above—it’s just funny, is all. And really, more than anything else, we’re just glad that these men of such varying backgrounds hair colors could put aside their many, many differences and come together for this joyous occasion.

    ONCE LIVE
    DIET WICE

    The standalone “Diet” sets a new tone methinks

    so, i might come off as a dick, but, what has happened to ModBlog? ¿4 posts since this weekend? And it seems like an increasing trend. Is Modblog staff to busy for us nowadays or are people just not submitting anything worth showing? I realize I’m not an AIM member so I might get flack for posting this but, as an avid Modblog reader, I thought I’d voice my opinion.

    Diva, Why is it not acceptable for an “avid Modblog reader” to want more posts? Modblog is seriously slacking, you can’t deny that.
