Obsequious, Yet Austere

NEW YORK -- The Shreikmann Galleries are pleased to announce their acquisition of the latest work from master surrealist Eduardo "Pickles" Passollini.  Entitled Eternal Abyss of Sorrow and Nothingness, Number Seven (oil on canvas, $7,450), the piece continues Passollini's fascination with the theme of Order versus Chaos, juxtaposing disorientingly random lines and colors with stern symbols of authority, once again the Giant Hand.

The piece will join other recent Passollini offerings, such as Swirling Vortex of Inescapable Suffering (mixed media, $12,500) and We're All Doomed, It's Hopeless, Somebody Just Kill Me Already (toothpaste on corrugated cardboard, $37,000).

I don't know much about what I like, Johanna S., but I know about art.

Why you, I oughta ...

"Put me down, ya big palooka!  I'll moidalyze ya!  I'll tear ya limb from limb!  I'll add your e-mail address to hundreds of herbal Viagra mailing lists!  Put'em up, put'em U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-UP!!"

Better do like the man says, Johanna S.

Now, where's my other disapproving bunny slipper?

Oh! There it is!

Pouting and harumphing as usual.

Nice goin' Birdchick and Sender-Inner Johanna S. :/

Go baby turtle-bots, GO!

Mini turtle bots are crawling towards the ocean and no one can STOP them!

Watch as they crawl towards the sea at innate lightning speeds,
Marvel as they stop for no other turtle traffic and blow right by!
Wonder just what the hayle happened to them the moment they flopped into the ocean!

Buh-Bye, Sydney G.

NO STINKEH PUPPEHS ALLOWED at Cat Club!

Oh yeah? well guess WHAT? NO PUPPEHS are allowed in OUR cat fort! Not a single puppeh.

[Kittehs do secret handshake to show solidarity] That's right. High Five.

[In unison] By the Knights of Kittenden, we pinkie swear to keep all puppehs OUT and pelt them with water balloons if they, like dare to get in.

Open the trap door, I'm going down to get us some Cokes, Jaclyn

RED PANDA adopted by generous kitteh

Puhlease, People, get a load of this. MSNBC is reporting A baby RED PANDA (there is really no cuter animal on earth 'cept maybe a hamster/pomeranian cross) was adopted by a domestic kitteh with four kittens. Let the interspecies snorgling BEGIN! [hands in air outstretched triumphantly]

Glurping AND tiny ear action:

And, JUUSSST in case you forgot what a red panda looks like, our very fave photo of a red panda with Japanese school-girl stance:

I can't get no... Satisfaction!

I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction
'cause i try and i try and i try and i try [little arm raises up]
I can't get no, i can't get no

When i'm drivin' in my car [arm does little driving motions]
And that man comes on the radio
He's tellin' me more and more
About some useless information
Supposed to fire my imagination
I can't get no, oh no no no [pout into microphone]
Hey hey hey, that's what i say

Thanks, Sender-Inner Lisa S.

Jeffery Catzenberg Takes a Meeting

"First, call DiCaprio and tell him he's perfect for the part of young Ben Franklin.  Then, call the Props Department and get me the biggest WWII dirigible they got.  And tell the writer we need to cut the Roman orgy sequence if we want that PG-13 rating."

I'll have my people text your people, Joelle.
