New Faile Show
Faile & Bast’s Deluxx Fluxx comes to NYC
Deluxx Fluxx
158 Allen St. New York, NY
Opening Reception: April 30th 7:30-10:30pm
Originally conceived as a one-off project in London, Deluxx Fluxx allowed Faile and Bast to indulge nostalgia for the classic video arcade while exploring the tactile possibilities of the wooden cabinet as sculptural medium. In its New York incarnation, the retrofitted machines run new games by Adapted Studio based on Faile and Bast’s omnivorous visual language, with sounds produced by Seth Jabour of the noted band Les Savy Fav.

tonight at the pit...
...You get laid!
Some of you may or may not know Jenny and Shanon. They have been working on a pilot for their new sitcom for the past few months (no joke). They're like the real life version of Patsy and Edina from Ab Fab, but a little more twisted. Anyways, they've been fleshing out a lot of their ideas for the show on their new blog "Tonight at the Pit." Dare I say its almost as funny a Dlisted.

my week.
scariest bottle opener.
andrew had his third annual scavenger hunt birthday party. this body shot attempt may not have counted, but our limerick sure the hell did.
here's truman, an 85-pound golden retriever that i sometimes watch. he was our team mvp, and he's certainly our pet of the week.
as seen in previous posts, nate launched his imfromdriftwood.com site, so we decided to throw a surprise party for him.
thanks everybody for helping to get the party together. nate wouldn't have been more surprised if he had woken up in the morning with his head sewn to the carpet.
pat was on a national tour for several weeks with the flatlanders, and last month they played a gig at bb king's. he's got some great stories about being on a bus every day with six other guys, and he says they've all bonded and become really close.
stallions and pussies.
c'mon, mason. have a heart.
check out the pipes.
the new 'hang-me elmo' toy.
aw, look how cute! that condom wrapper has a heart on it.

an email does make a difference
We talked, and I learned her name was K. and asked her about the shelters in town. She rattled off the names of homes that I know are where abused women and children escape to when their lives are in danger.
None of the shelters had rooms for her and her children.
Then it dawned on me that maybe I could do more than give her $30 and hope someone else gives her another $30 so the young family can find a place to sleep tonight. I asked her if we could share her photos and her story so that somewhere, some of you might be able to help.
K's eyes are perpetually brimming with tears. She's tiny and her hands are chilled. Baby M is sleeping under a blanket on her chest. The two younger children, D and Little K, are relatively quiet considering their ages. At 7 and 9, they could be tearing up the sidewalks, but they're not.
When I explain to K about my blog and that I hope that maybe someone out there reading might have a way to help, she thinks it's a good idea and says it's okay to take the pictures. "It can't be any more embarrassing than what I'm doing now," she says.

my week. *sxsw absentee edition*
what are 'alcohol drugs'? and how are they destroying my life? follow jesus? read the bible? um...according to the bible, jesus miraculously made alcohol out of water. so aren't you sending mixed signals, pal? get your shit out of my face. i've got yen to exchange for american dollars. which i'm going to spend on more alcohol drugs. oh god, my life....
damien had a birthday on wednesday night, and since everyone skipped town for sxsw, no one showed up. :(
well, rafi showed up. and nate. and me. but sans pans. geezus. i thought i swore to myself (you all) that i (you all) would never see me in my underwear on this blog again. man. the things i wouldn't do for a laugh (free drink).
ooooooh, i see. well that explains all the hasids. jerusalem is the new williamsburg.
open caption contest:
see, jacquie and elisa? sherrod DOES exist. and on saturday, he showed up to damien's birthday party...at sugarland. hmm, i'm not helping my cause.
this guy needs to cheer up.
yesterday i was down under the manhattan bridge overpass.
and with stickers like this floating around, i don't know that i would take my kid to any dumbo playgrounds...
whatever, i'm sure all the riff-raff are behind bars...
