Whose passing are you mourning most this month?

[Screaming Lord Byron]

Poll question: Whose passing are you mourning most this month?

[Magrittes Pipe]

1. My innocence.

:cry:

[Screaming Lord Byron]

2. It never suited you.

Suited you.

[Khephra]

3. Whatever happened to Fay Wray?

That delicate satin draped frame
As it clung to her thigh, how I started to cry
'Cause I wanted to be dressed just the same

Give yourself over to absolute pleasure
Swim the warm waters of sins of the flesh
Erotic nightmares beyond any measure
And sensual daydreams to treasure forever

Can't you just see it. Whoa ho ho!

Don't dream it, be it
Don't dream it, be it....

[Magrittes Pipe]

4. Don't drink it.

I peed in it.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

5. 'Swim the warm waters of sins of the flesh'?

Good Lord, Richard O'Brien can really throw them together, can't he?

[Khephra]

6. You bettcha!

It's the only song I know that mentions Fay, so I had to use it. I never really wanted to look like her...well, maybe the make-up part.

:evilgrin:

[Fenris]

12. Taco

I plan on assasinating him at 5PM.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

13. No chance of a shot at Jan Hammer while you're at it, is there?

[Fenris]

14. No, but I do have a good shot at Harold Faltermeyer.

Dum dum dumdudum dum dum...

I was actually taught by a piano teacher how to play "Axel's Theme" believe it or not. There was sheet music to it. Someone took the time to transcribe that.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

15. Hooray!

And thus our entire culture is saved from the cosmic dumpster.

[Fenris]

16. I plan on a September grenade attack on Jan Hammer's compound.

Which is actually a one-room shack just outside of Delft.

[The Sushi Bandit]

18. JULIA CHILD!!!

[Skittles]

20. I am still mourning the death of my friend Tim

he was hit by someone running a red light in May (two days after his 36th birthday) and died eight days later. I'm reminded of it daily as I watch one, two, even three cars running the lights after they turn red.

21. my dog

22. Helen Contis, a Pittsburgh painter who died two days ago...

... A self-taught artist, she, along with her husband Peter, who died in 1973, produced some of the best canvases to ever come out of Pittsburgh. The Contises, along with John Kane, are my favorite Pittsburgh artists. I suppose I'm biased, as I had the pleasure of knowing Helen for many years. But her talent was vast and significant.
