Keef, Paris, 1965

Girl 27

The story of Patricia Douglas is fascinating, depressing, and deserves to be told, but David Stenn is not the person to tell it. I watched this documentary over the weekend, and I agree with the commenter who said Stenn ruins the story with his fame-whorish attempt to insert himself into the story (not to mention his somewhat weak story line based almost entirely on speculation). Wish someone could do the story real justice. Still, it’s fucked up and you should watch it anyway. You’ll be a better person for the knowledge of this crime.

Stuck In My Head

Gorillaz was one of the best shows I’ve seen in a long, long time. When I saw this video I was like, “Hey, that’s my dance!”

Don’t you feel like cryin’?

This is sorta old news, but Solomon Burke died a few days ago, almost exactly a year after Patrick Swayze died. This calls for a Dirty Dancing reference.

Also, goddamn! Have you seen this deleted scene from the 20th anniversary DVD?

Amerivespa 2010 Slow Race

My favorite part of any scooter rally.

I lost. But I was the last girl standing!

Happy Halloween
