SurfW/Hello Kitty Birthday
Everyone is doing a Halloween blog, but I couldn't think of anything scarier than HELLO KITTY! More popular than The Beatles, a 1 BILLION dollar a year business......
HAPPY BIRTHDAY HELLO KITTY NOV. 1!
Hello Kitty is a propaganda device created by the central intelligence division of the Japanese government, S.A.N.R.I.O. (Sacled Ancestol Nihonjin Rove Itarian Octopus) made entirely out of pureed cat corpses and Play-Doh. The design for Hello Kitty was finalized in 1938 as the brainchild of the HellPussy Project, which was initiated to exploit the mind-controlling properties of unbridled cuteness over the Japanese public. http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Hello_Kitty
On November 1, 1974, Sanrio introduced the first picture of Hello Kitty. She sat between a bottle of milk and a pet goldfish, and had turned her head sideways to face her newfound friends. In a word: cute. Or more accurately, kawaii, the distinctively Japanese breed of cuteness that injects adorable attributes into all aspects of the country's consumer culture. http://hellokitty.wetpaint.com/page/Hello+Kitty+Biography?t=anon
One reporter tries to explain her addiction to Hello Kitty I consider myself first-generation Hello Kitty. "As such, I have a lifetime membership in the secret society of the O.G.H.K. (Original Gangsta Hello Kitty). Membership is one of the many compensations for coming of age after the Archies but before the Spice Girls.
I first heard the siren call of Hello Kitty in second grade, on the day after Christmas vacation."

SurfW/Obama Flag Shock- Real?
TEN GREAT MOMENTS IN ART, SHEETS THAT FEEL LIKE SKIN, WORKING AT AMERICAN APPAREL, AIDS WAS HERE FOR YEARS BEFORE WE KNEW IT, THE NAKED SKELETON PRANK!
It was the peak of the satanic ritual accusations that swamped America in the 80's and 90's. This trial was used as proof that satanists were running wild. But, there's a problem.....
In 1994, three teenagers in the small city of West Memphis, Ark., were convicted of killing three 8-year-old boys in what prosecutors portrayed as a satanic sacrifice involving sexual abuse and genital mutilation. So shocking were the crimes that when the teenagers were led from the courthouse after their arrest, they were met by 200 local residents yelling, “Burn in hell.”
But according to long-awaited new evidence filed by the defense in federal court on Monday, there was no DNA from the three defendants found at the scene, the mutilation was actually the work of animals and at least one person other than the defendants may have been present at the crime scene.
Uh oh. The Japanese have begun asking if the atomic bombs were really necessary...

I was walking down Wells Street downtown when I came upon Tizi Melloul (which is both a mountain and slang for BIG BUTT) when I noticed a sign that said $3 martinis and select appetizers. Curious I walked in in at 531 N. Wells and sure enough- I got a big bowl of mussels and two martinis- for under $10. The special is Monday and Tuesday.

In 1943, Ansel Adams (1902-1984) documented the Manzanar War Relocation Center in California and the Japanese Americans interned there during World War II. The Library of Congress presents for the first time side-by-side digital scans of both Adams's 242 original negatives and his 209 photographic prints, allowing viewers to see his darkroom technique and in particular how he cropped his prints.
When he offered the collection to the Library in 1965, Adams wrote, "The purpose of my work was to show how these people, suffering under a great injustice, and loss of property, businesses and professions, had overcome the sense of defeat and dispair [sic] by building for themselves a vital community in an arid (but magnificent) environment…All in all, I think this Manzanar Collection is an important historical document, and I trust it can be put to good use." http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/collections/anseladams/aamsp.html

I got back in town a day before I'd planned to
I smiled and said I'll sure surprise my wife
I don't think I'll phone I'll just head on home
For I didn't know the cold hard facts of life
I passed a little wine store on the corner
I pictured pink champagne by candlelight
I stopped the car right then got out and hurried in
My mind not on the cold hard facts of life
A stranger stood there laughing by the counter
He said I'll take two bottles of your best
Her husband's out of town and there's a party
He winkled as if to say you know the rest
I left the store two steps behind the stranger
From there to my house his car stayed in sight
But it wasn't till he turned into my drive that I learned
I was witnessing the cold hard facts of life
I drove around the block till I was dizzy
Each time the noise came louder from within
And then I saw our bottle there beside me
And I drank a fifth of courage and walked in
Lord you should've seen their frantic faces
They screamed and cried please put away that knife
I guess I'll go to hell or I'll rot here in this cell

FIVE DRINKING STORIES THAT MADE HISTORY, CAN BRITNEY BE SAVED?, THE SCARIEST DATE EVER, SHOOT FIRST LAWS UNFAIR TO BURGLARS!
The real reason pot is illegal: "My fiancee deals in antiques & I help him on the side. I went to an estate sale & purchased a bunch of handspun cloth nightgowns from the 1820s/30s era. The woman at the sale was telling me about the process of how the woman made the cloth from hemp & showing me the beautiful tiny details of their work. There was not a hole in ANY of the fifteen I purchased. They were thick & sturdy. I brought them home & gently washed them with some oxyclean & put a little fabric softner in with them. They came out white & beautiful."
The congregation of Southland Christian Church is being asked to send letters of love and support to troubled pop star Britney Spears, described by the pastor as having made "devastating life choices." "Take a few minutes and write a note to Britney Spears," pastor John Weece said in a sermon and in a blog on the church Web site. "No preaching. No criticizing. Just love. As a church, let's love Britney the way Jesus loves her."

The last one I went to they served the drink free the entire time. At $8 a shot I think I did around 10 drinks! Free!
AGWA is made from coca leaves from Brazil and is created in Amsterdam. There are no other bars serving it here in Chicago.
There is only one bar in the entire midwest selling AGWA, a coca leaf liquor. The coca leaves are from Bolivia, and the liquor is made in Amsterdam. On Sunday Today at the L&L Bar at Belmont and Clark the Agwa Girls are flying in from the west coast and you'll be able to buy shots before church groups and politicians go beserk. The event is from 6 to 9 and this liquor shot has pretty much ended all other liquor shots- from Jaeger to those shots with dumb sex names- they all seem tame now. Distilled and produced in Holland, AGWA de Bolivia is an Alco-Jolt made from the Bolivian coca leaf and contains Guarana and ginseng.
 Available in standard dosage of 32 grams of coca leaf flavour per litre, or the more potent 40 grams of coca leaf flavour. Now you get your shot of booze, and a vial of lime powder which helps release the flavor - here are different ways to drink it: (this website has various men and women drinkers in stages of undress from Europe to the west coast so it is not ok for work) http://agwabuzz.com/us/drink.php Here is the website:

Rare documents about Freaks, Tod Browning's classic cult movie
Tod Browning's Freaks (1932) is widely considered to be one of the greatest cult films of all time. Making the #3 spot in Entertainment Weekly's Top 50 Cult Movies list in their May 23, 2003 issue, Freaks was edged out only by The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) and This is Spinal Tap (1984)...This is no small feat for a film over seventy years old...
Beginning as an attempt by MGM to out-horror every horror film being made at that time, Freaks turned out to be too far over the edge for 1930's audiences, eliciting gagged responses from audiences and critics alike. It was not until Freaks was rediscovered in the early 1960's that public opinion of the film began to change, and its reputation began to grow into that of the cult masterpiece it is widely considered to be today. The 'Freaks' Show offers some rare documents on this great cult film that will give you a better understanding of the circumstances that yielded this flawed but lovable masterpiece of the macabre... http://www.olgabaclanova.com/freaks_show.htm
