Konnor & Trevor

Twins play in a Caprice parked in front of their house. They are eight years old.





Cut

My mom cut her leg shaving with a broken razor. My father suggested that we sue the manufacturer and then laughed.

Cat from Hell

Charles now lives in Mission Hills.   There's a cat down the street that just hangs out in one spot and never leaves.



Actually the cat is pretty friendly.

Recap

So it's been a very long time since I've posted anything, so I decided to do a large recap on what's been happening to me and share some photos of things i liked and things i saw.

Christina left. She went back to Germany. But before she left, I spent a lot of time at her house with Adam and Katie too.


Also before she left, we went to The Shack one last time. There was this obnoxiously drunk old guy who sat down at our table and kept saying stupid things to us. We just laughed and egged him on. Here he is enjoying his cigarette.

Seems almost sexual.

About a week ago, Ian and a couple of friends decided to ride fixed gears down to San Diego from Lakewood. They said the odometer read 99.5 miles. Here's Ian after their arrival.




Tony ended up crashing on the couch for a couple of hours from the exhaustion. I put a Cheez-it on his face to make it seem like he's an incredible fat-ass even though motherfucker just biked a distance that i never will.




So now I"m living in between Lakewood and Long Beach for the time being. Sleeping on couches and cruising around trying to enjoy my time in both places. Ian got me a job at the Pike valeting cars.



June 20th was Go Skateboarding Day. There was a barbecue put on by the Red Room in Long beach. They held it at Caruthers park and a bunch of people showed up and skated. I skated for a bit but then got my camera out cause the bowl was getting devastated by Joe among others

Log Cabin

Greg took Frank and I along with Julian to go check out the famous Log Cabin in Laurel Canyon.
Having Greg there was like having a hired tour guide just spouting off interesting facts and
rumors as we walked around on the property. Apparently, Houdini owned a house just down 
the street.


There was a giant dreamcatcher strung up in the trees.  Greg told us that Frank Zappa put it there when he owned the house at one point. 

The house is really strange inside. 

There's even a tree growing right through the roof.
Just outside and down the street is this mural.  Frank thinks that this hijacked iconoclast is meant to symbolize Rick Rubin, who owns the place next door.  I think he's right.

The entrance to Rick's mansion.  How inviting to the casual thrill seeker.

Jesse's Art Show

Headed out to Fullerton to check out Chapolito's new art. The place was called the Hibbleton.

Here's Jesse schmoozing it up with some random.

He had contests to win original art made by him. The first was a handshake competition. Next was a Chubby Bunny Contest. The guy on the right took home the prize. Motherfucker had a huge mouth. He could have easily fit 6 more in his face-cave.

Next was a saltine cracker eating contest, Chubby Bunny had made my mouth all chalky and Zaq won. Boo hoo.

The last was an interpretive dance competition. Everyone was pretty good. There was one crazy rocker dude who was dancing around, stopped dancing and then when no one was looking decided to try and drop kick a girl in the face. Maybe he was trying to dance? Unfortunately, i was able to the shittiest picture of a shitty situation. It funny to see everyone's face react.

This is the guy who won. I think his name was Michael.
