Katie got this gorgeous memorial portrait of her pet rat, Kamp Koala, by Tim Jordan at Optic Nerve Arts in the Alberta Arts District of Portland, Oregon. It makes me miss my rat, Ginger Kang-Kang, who died of cancer about fifteen years ago. He spent a semester riding everywhere on my shoulder…

Jimi made himself these cheek spears and is just testing them out here in his bathroom… I really like his handlebars tattoo as well!

I don’t really know what the motivation behind this tattoo of a self consuming cow is — in this case done by Drew Atkins at Incorporated in Zanesville, Ohion — but all it brings to mind for me is the Ameglian Major Cow from Milliways (The Restaurant at the End of the Universe — I’m sure other Douglas Adams fans know what I’m talking about).

When I was in psyche ward lock-down (what, you didn’t know that BME was started by an escaped mental patient? I kid you not…) there was a big catatonic guy that always wandered around in torn jeans with his nuts hanging out. It was really funny. While I hated being locked up, in a lot of ways I do really miss living in a mental hospital because there’s so much humor if you can dissociate from the fundamental horror of it all… This photo kind of reminds me of those days.
