OFF NIGHT AT FIGURE DRAWING GROUP

It was hot, for one thing. For another, I sucked. Let's not talk about it any more. Let's talk about Judge Soda My Your. No, I don't feel like talking about her either. I'm just cranky, all right? I'm leaving it up to you commenters to take up the slack and say some really interesting shit. Go on.

Wish I could send you some of the craziness I heard on the talk radio down here in Texas where, by the way, it's 102 degrees with 79% humidity, if you want to talk about hot. There was a steady stream of loud loony conspiracy survivalist talk so vivid that I was tempted to pull over and write some of it down. But I decided it was too hateful to warrant any repeating and that it was one of those times that what was heard in Texas should stay in Texas. A word of advice: should you run into Ray from Del Rio or Alexander from Ontario, just keep on walking. Those are some bad dudes.
Traveling to Texas in order to provide interesting commentary for this blog is way beyond the call of duty, Doc. Come on back. Nobody should have to go to Texas.
That model is not entirely nude...I would demand a refund.
Norfolk has recently passed a new ordinance that wrists and ankles must be covered during nude modeling. This was a direct result of Crazy Mike biting the ankle of a model recently. So we have only ourselves to blame.
While passing through Texas I read in the local paper that a man had died in custody while under interrogation. He'd died from injuries sustained after falling off his chair.
We had a tutor in life drawing who was a bit quirky, he looked like a sergeant major in his suit and tie, short back'n'sides and tache, but with a three inch nail in his lapel, always dressed the same. One of the models was a very pleasant middle-aged housewife. One day he decided to liven things up a bit and suggested that instead of looking at the model in the traditional art sense, we let loose and see her as we like, which inevitably ended up as a sex object. For the last pose he got her after some persuasion to lie back on these big cushions with her legs akimbo. I think she remained blushing for that last twenty minutes or so, clearly uncomfortable her embarrasment was tangible and I couldn't help feeling sorry for her, I was embarrassed myself. She'd been a regular but we never saw her again.
Moral of this extremely interesting shit, albeit by call of duty, is that MODELS ARE NOT OBJECTS- THEY ARE REAL PEOPLE AND HAVE FEELINGS TOO!
amen, brother!
The Texas Thing. Once I was sitting next to a Texas Commedienne at a luncheon. Friends and I had recently discussed Texans and how they think that place is so wonderful and all is big, and why in the world would they?
This lady said it's because they were once a separate country (Lone Star) and they have it in their constitution that they are allowed to leave the Union if they wish.
Lets get those balloons and tie it up and "Goodby, George."
As to the new Norfolk ordinance specifying the coverage of ankles and wrists, I was reading up on Inuit games, and many involve grabbing the other person's ankles or toes. For the side-by- side tandem, you see if you can jump maybe three inches. It advised you do it in the summer grass, as the "young ones might come crashing down on their faces."
Then there is the laughing game.

I don't like Texas.
I don't like Texans.
Hey, ok, I get it, I guess - but does this really work?
I cannot believe this will work!
