PASTAFARI
“austrian atheist niko alm supports the church of the flying spaghetti monster, a joke religion conjured up by atheists who say their make-believe stories are no better or worse than any traditional church’s. in 2008, to make a point about his faith’s sanctity compared to others, alm asked to wear a pasta strainer on his head for his driver’s license photo. austrian citizens are only allowed to wear headgear in state IDs for religious purposes, so alm, a spaghetti monster “pastafarian,” argued that a colander is his “religious headgear.”
this week, after avoiding alm for three years and even making him submit to a psychiatric examination, the austrian government caved. alm now has a valid austrian drivers license, complete with colander.”

chicago based anonymous art collective bored engaged rich uncle pennybags in his biggest role yet, a life-sized one. they took to the streets in chicago’s logan square neighborhood, adorning the sidewalks with plywood dice, chance and community chest cards. if you’re not careful, you may get a card that says go to jail for douchebaggery. i like the way these kids think. by sv

luna nera
watched louis malle’s masterpiece ‘black moon’ last night. like an alice in wonderland meets brazil meets dante’s inferno. perhaps in this instance, it isn’t a world that is worth becoming; however, it is certainly a film worth a watch. by sv
our long lost friend down under
apparently photographer squire fox teamed up with a ts-alum-look-a-like to cut this playful short. it was a pleasure to meet squire at our headquarters and get to know him. rumor has it that we will be seeing some NYC grit photos from him soon! by jr

the satirical genius kurt vonnegut (also my personal hero) shares a knee cross and a beach chair with the equally relevant tom wolfe. somebody get me a pall mall! by sv
