So while I was doing our grape vivisection last year, I wanted to mix things up a bit. Since I’m such a football fan, I wanted to incorporate my favorite sport into the shoot. But, how to merge two seemingly unrelated topics as slicing something to pieces and football.  Finally, I decided it just didn’t fit, which gave me this idea:

It doesn't... fit in this photo

This one’s for you, OJ.

It’s Bad Shot Week!

So, not every picture I take works out. Some might argue NONE of the pictures I take work out, but to them I say, go fuck yourself. Today’s image was taken as part of a rapid fire experiment where I just dropped grapes on random plates and snapped away. Not sure what happened with this shot, but the lighting is a little bright.

What, too soon?

Vindication… and something disturbing x2

Came across this story the other day while waiting for a Dr.’s appointment. Vindication! Everyone looks at me funny when I mention armadillos and leprosy. Now, there’s proof.

So, while I was groping around the internet for that story to link, I came across this awesome car and it rubbed off on me. A brief description:

“Costing upwards of $1,450,000, the highly modified SUV features exclusive materials such as whale-penis leather for the seats, gold-plating for the window surrounds, gauges encrusted with diamonds and rubies and an exhaust system made from tungsten.”

Yes, whale wang leather. No word on whether these were Jewish whales and the skin was harvested and, uh, “recycled” as leather. Reminds me of this car, actually. Now, you can go back and reread my lead-in to this story on count the double entendres and mastabatory overtones.

OK, enough of that. I actually found the above story while reading this story about a $740,000 bottle of vodka that comes with, get this, a free SUV and a custom vibrator. Obviously, this is marketed towards women… on second thought, maybe not.

And to celebrate, I’m going to be lazy and do the sitcom version of a clip show… links to some of your favorite posts (Hey, I’ve been sick with strep throat for the last week, so cut me some slack). Choosing only nine posts out of over 200, wasn’t easy. It took literally minutes out of my day.
