Oh, these silly trends!
This has less to do with being svelte, and more to do with shoulder mobility.

I think this is the same guy who has pieces available for sale at a shop in Nyack, NY called Iriniri. They are even more beautiful in person:

Thanks for posting this! I remember watching that famous vault by Keri Strug. It always stuck with me.

It's a disgruntled Lambchop puppet. She's angry that socks are not considered entertaining in this day and age. Laika didn't want to deal with her, so they shipped her to Neatorama...!

Freudian Slippers in Small please!

I love this guy's sense of humor - reminds me of this project:

I wish more theaters would be as proactive as Alamo Drafthouse. I feel that when a patron pays to enjoy entertainment, even when it is with members of the public (which they cannot choose), the venue should take responsibility by aiding those patrons in having a good experience...

But more to the point, I think he was a dumb-ass for hitting a kid. Brute force is often ego tinged with cowardice. And according to the article, no complaint was made. So perhaps given a chance, the theater would have dealt with it properly...as opposed to a 21 year old committing aggravated assault on a 10 year old. PUH-lease.

@ Ryan S
Thanks! That was the official EP artwork.

This is incredible!

My old band was so taken with Phineas's story we wrote a song about it:

Interesting! There is another artist named James Plakovic who has been doing work in a similar vein for years:

There is value in both the manually manipulated art form and something that is a programmed for a specific result. I think just because one is more prevalent now than the other doesn't dismiss the fact that there is a place for both. I've never understood the need to raise one above the other when both require a skill set that takes training and practice to hone.

This is a great video. Thanks for sharing it! The kid in me wanted to play with that puppy too. And as an adult? I still would have given that ball a toss!

There is no substantial evidence that Frances Farmer had a lobotomy.

Also, if you want to read the actual paper that
Dr. John M. Harlow wrote concerning the whole Phineas Gage ordeal, go here:

A secondary report was written by Dr. Harlow years later, after Gage died.

There is some debate as to whether he took too much credit for the initial care of Gage. Apparently,
Dr. Edward Higginson Williams was the first to tend Phineas:

A little bit of 1800's melodrama for any who are interested....
