Earlier this year, I was asked to help someone find love. For some reason, this lonely soul thought I could wave a magic wand like some fictional faery godmother and get him a girlfriend.

Happy Holidays,.. from Me to You!
I.O.’s Aside: Wow, people who can do art like this amaze me. It’s imperative that we support the art we love (music, writing, film, dancing).

Effort counts, getting the word out counts, andContinue reading “Happy Holidays,.. from Me to You!”
The flies are in the kitchen, the beans are in the soup
I.O.’s Aside: This woman is crazy. The good kind of crazy. The kind of crazy that I would love to bottle up and sell. Read every word. It will all make sense in the end.

The Unassailable
I.O.’s Aside: I enjoy Dean’s poetry and his commentary is scathing and funny. Check out his blog!
Whatever
I.O.’s aside: Pissing people off is an art form.
Swedish sludgers Serpent Omega bring on the volcanic mud on killer self-titled debut
Originally posted on Meat Mead Metal:
Messy and filthy, punishing and violent. Those are really good traits if you’re describing a relatively new metal band to an audience that might not yet be familiar with the artists, and since I’m doing that today, I’m pretty comfortable with those words as descriptors for Serpent Omega. The…
I am now working with Hermes: )
Dear reader I am now working with Hermes. I read a post about him on the house of vines and I realized that he has been with me for a while. I have met him once before when he introduced me to Isis in a dream a few years ago. I always thought He was…
