Johnny Depp in 21 Jump Street



Last night I went over to Mimi's because she needed a ride to the train station at 3 A.M, but to kill time we watched a bunch of episodes from the TV series that gave Johnny Depp his frist big break back in the 80's. I believe that he only stayed on for a few seasons and right when it got really big he decided to leave and the series found a replacement. It still wasn't the same wihtout him.

Mark Ryden- Yoshi


This is an older painting and one of my favorites.
-Tess

Mark Ryden- Heaven

These are Ryden's new series of paintings called the Snow Yak Show. I can't stop looking at them they just feed my imagination and make me crave for more.
-Tess

Mark Ryden- Fun Girl


Mark Ryden-Abominable


Mark Ryden-Grotto of The Old Mass


I love this painting because it reminds me of stories like Joan of Arc, Moses and The 10 Commandments, stories where God visits someone to give them their lifes mission to fulfill. Instead, this little girl is visited by Honest Abe. I visualize him giving her a mission or gold nuggets of wisdom to change the future and she becomes the first woman president or the next Susan B. Anthony.

80's night


Last night Mimi and I decided to give it our last Hara! before we get to old to shake it and start to break it at Area 51. We thought, " Hey we haven't been in a while so we should reassure our egos we are still cool and hip," and Mimi said," I wonder if anybody we know will be there?" So of coarse we put on our bondage outfits from hot topic for sex appeal, bought a pack of Virgina slim cigarettes for sophisticated appeal, and got waisted in the car right before we walked in the joint for confidence appeal. We were ready to ROMP! and STOMP!
After hours of cage dancing and erotic stage performances our ego's were starting to bruise; why is our effort to be cool unnoticed? Why are guys running away mortified when we dance on them as if we are their mom's acting inappropriate? Sure,we are coming up on our 20th birthday and to 18 year old boys that is like the new 30, but come on our boobs aren't saggy yet.
In the epitome of hell were all hope is lost two angles walk in ,Garry Coleman and David Hasselhoff, our eyes meet across the room of young sweaty teens DHing/dancing. Hasse walks up to Mimi and serenades her with his Rap of affection," Yo my name is Hasse I'm totally boss, I like to babe watch and surf all day, girl you topnotch so lets foreplay". Mimi is turned on by Hasse's lyrics so she does a little jig and spits out the first rhyme that came to mind," Yo my name is Mimi I like to go pee pee I have my own bike and three pimp hoes and when I bend down my butt crack shows". They shake hands and start dancing like bears in heat; not sure if bears get hot but you get the picture. Coleman approaches me and I ask him a stupid question," So there are a lot of girls here in booty shorts and they all look fifteen I bet you feel right at home yeah"? with offense he says," Tess, I don't touch girls," I say,"Ooookaaay." not sure what to do next so I try to find a common interest and ask him if he likes to dance. He says nothing and busts out in break dance fever, knocks everyone out like Stone Cold Steve Austin. Coleman's bizarre foot work creates a creepy panorama of motionless children in neon spandex. With Coleman panting over the wreckage, Mimi and I flabbergasted, we back up not turning our backs until we are out of sight and make a break for the door. Feeling like an old washed up has been, Mimi and I drive to Maverick to end the night with soft serve ice cream to heal the cracks of our shattered Egos. -Tess
