Fargo

We get a lot of cool cars - and vans - vintage everything. With Vans you always think "Westfalia" or "VW", this van changed that. This Van was pretty cool:

The Batshit Package

A regular customer, he comes  in to the restaurant 1, 2, maybe 3 times a week. One of the local characters, he's usually looking for a free OJ ("Can I just get some ice...maybe with a splash of Orange Juice..."), or a handful of french fries, a couple of Zucchini sticks, maybe just 2 dollars worth, he's broke, 60 or 70 odd years old and reminisces of the time when he hung around the brat pack, Dean Martin, Marilyn Munroe, Jean Harlow, down around Malibu and Hollywood, abundant references to a glorious former life and circle of friends that he may or may not have had...

I'd heard he also did art, of sorts, so offered him $20.00 if he'd do a nude sketch of one of our waitresses, a small revenge upon her for all the countless tables of hers she'd made me bus, he laughs, ...

Returning from Toronto there's a package for me ... 

Batshit Package

A package addressed to me, wrapped in a dirty gym sock and rubber bands, my curiosity is piqued, "Gift 2 Server->+Duck"...

Batshit

Various pieces of posters, a stick, a stone, found cards, with his elaborations and thoughts written upon them:

Side One: "If U Go..Cabin Cafe U'll See Point...R.N.R. Put Norma-J at (illeg)"

3 cards from a Jesus based Tarot, with notes:

 

AND 2 large posters:

I like outsider art, and this is as "Outside" as it gets. Curios from a local...

A Man with a Maid - review

My foray into Victorian eroticism, merely rounding out my reading, why not? Everyone else is reading "50 Shades of Bullshit", my eroticism can be a little more literary.

It isn't, the prose and style is better, by a long-shot, but it suffers the gross repetition of ideas - a Victorian "Gentleman" has furnished and soundproofed a torture room wherein he rapes and converts to decadence some poor girl that has spurned his advances. The first volume is good - for the genre, he's no Nabokov or De Sade by a long shot, but he's thorough and realizes his elaborate fantasies upon the reluctant-come-enthusiastic victim. 

Standard rape fantasy, where the woman (women) learn to enjoy themselves despite their noble inclinations...fodder for both men and women. I have some criticisms, the word "Bubbies" for "Tits" or "Breasts" for example, makes me laugh, and some of his "depravities" are not particularly to my taste, but it does have something...
