'Dear patrons, please charge your glasses and drink heartily, for tomorrow you may die' Exhibition venue Club Row, Rochelle School Arnold Circus, Shoreditch, London E2 7ES Opening Times Daily 12 till 6pm (27th Aug — 5th Sept) drawing by Will Sweeney LE GUN #4 promises a rich and slippery harvest of pictures and words, a catch that includes Polish artist-crustacean Andrzej Klimowski, Will Sweeney, creator of 'Tales of Green Fuzz', visionary draughtsman Paul Noble, and writing from beat generation expert Barry Miles and dandy of the underworld Sebastian Horsley, as well as fresh fruit from young novelist Richard Milward, grubby texts from Iain Sinclair and the 'Hunter S Thompson of Hartlepool', Michael Smith. The exhibition will feature the collective's large scale drawings, forming a physical embodiment of the work found on the pages of LE GUN. These drawings, some up to 10m in length, are collaborative, narrative panoramas that link together to tell a curious tale... LE GUN 'THE FAMILY' will also feature a 'salon wall' of works by artists working with LE GUN, and our cardboard-constructed 'arts club' installation that will host a wonderful, eccentric bar created by The Dog & Wardrobe plus performance and screening area. The exhibition will run for just over one week and in that time a number of events such as music nights and short film screenings will be programmed, creating a temporary arts club. Highlights include screening the 'Essentials' programme of seminal short film curated by the Independent Cinema Office. This will coincide with Soup Session, hosted by Jessica Antwi-Boasiako. After the exhibition Private View at Rochelle School a motley parade will be making its way round the corner to Cargo, led by the Trans-Siberian Marching Band... Thus will ensue a spectacular afterparty until the early hours, with live entertainments from the bands Agaskodo Teliverek and Beggars, plus the charming disk jockeys cum U-boat commandants Nervous Steven and Rough Trade's finest Mr Phil Adams. Its a fiver to get in but if you come to the exhibition first you will get in for free; hope to see you there... website: www.legun.co.uk email: ammunition@legun.co.uk studio: +44 (0)20 8985 6756 press contact: Hannah at Trolley (+44 (0)207 729 6591)   LE GUN 'THE FAMILY' exhibition is commissioned by NOMAD supported by A Foundation The Dog & Wardrobe SCA Industrial

"Suits Are Picking up The Bill" --- Is There a Valid Theme Here???

Squirrel Nut Zippers (Sing) Suits Are Picking up The Bill Promo video for the song "Suits Are Picking Up The Bill "
While watching the DNC coverage at a V.P.'s home of a publicly traded company - after everyone else had left and we were just chilling out and catching-up a bit - this song kept going through my head and did so the whole way home - And, then, still the same while I continued to watch more of the DNC coverage from my own home. I think there's a theme here - all the way around for tonight - when I think of tonight- it's theme is: "the suits are picking up the bill" ...Really, think about it! ...all the CNN coverage, the FNC coverage, the CBS, NBC, CNBC, BBC = who's picking-up the bill? The suits - that's who. And in hotels, bars and restaurants and strip clubs across Denver - who's picking-up the bill? The suits that's who! And all across the country who's picking-up the bill and will continue to do so??? ... Democrat or Republican - either way, "the suits are picking-up the bill."

Country Club Johnny at the Veranda Bar

It turns out that not only does country club Paul the bartender make insanely great drinks like a Maker's Mark Manhattan (up or down) but he apparently takes some good pictures as well
LifeGuard Steve at the country club pool is a pretty righteous dude for a young buck not even old enough to have a legal drink in this Common Wealth of Pennsylvania or in neighboring Ohio where he attends John Carroll University. LifeGuard/John Carroll University Steve has an excellent appreciation of music, books and overall communication ---

James Douglas Morrison _ (Jeem)   I know I'd be doing some "ground breaking" moves = "throwing 7 kinds of smoke" ... and winning Emmy's for it _ eventually _ after the smoke settles and no one could deny what it is I have really done.   Best of August Roses, John French mystrawhat.com $$$$$$$$$$$$  myspace.com/mosshead7 $$$$$$$$$$$$ http://theneweverydaymedia.blogspot.com/

Face Book Strategy: Fox & Friends _ (And Master Peter Doocy)_ PLUS, CNN's "IReport" Everyday Sunshine"

For Greg Gutfeld, Bill Schulz & TV's Andy Levy of Red Eye: This Bud Is For YOU ... ..(Dudes)... ...

Matthew McConaughey at Tropic Thunder Hollywood Premier

Dear Red Eye: Sure, just about every night when you talk about your Bro, Matthew McConaughey, you have pictures of him shirtless. And, although you may prefer that here, well, you know, he was at a Hollywood premier and, of course, could not appear shirtless.

However, I thought you still may dig it because his cowboy shirt looks like it's unbuttoned to his belly button and he's tan, his hair is perfect and teeth are so straight & white, he has cool shades on (I actually own a pair just like those) and some Malibu scruff.

Airs Next: FOX at Monday 8:00 PM (60 min.)
Status: Returning Series Premiered: September 13, 2005 Show Categories: Drama, Action/Adventure
(Emily Deschanel)
From executive producers Barry Josephson and Hart Hanson comes the darkly amusing drama Bones, inspired by real-life forensic anthropologist and novelist Kathy Reichs. Forensic anthropologist Dr. Temperance Brennan, who works at the Jeffersonian Institution and writes novels as a sideline, has an uncanny ability to read clues left behind in a victim's bones. Consequently, law enforcement calls her in to assist with murder investigations when the remains are so badly decomposed, burned, or destroyed that the standard identification methods are useless. Brennan's equally brilliant colleagues (or "squints" as they're often called) at the Jeffersonian's Medico-Legal Lab include earthy and bawdy Angela Montenegro, who's created a unique way to render an original crime scene in a three-dimensional computer image; Brennan's assistant, Zack Addy, a young prodigy whose genius IQ sometimes distances him from reality; Dr. Jack Hodgins, who's an expert on insects, spores and minerals, but conspiracy is his hobby; and Brennan's boss Dr. Camille "Cam" Saroyan, who replaced Dr. Daniel Goodman after the first season. Brennan often finds herself teamed with Special Agent Seeley Booth, a former Army sniper who mistrusts science and scientists when it comes to solving crimes. Brennan and Booth clash both professionally and personally, but the chemistry between them has grown since they first met and has made them a strong and trusting team. To aid Booth and Brennan in their persisting struggles, psychologist Dr. Lance Sweets signed on in season three as their therapist and also occasionally provides input on cases they're working on.

I love how Agent Booth is from Pittsburgh too.
Dr. Temperance Brennan (Emily Deschanel) is a wonder-woman. She has an unwavering, impeccable sense of integrity. She's amazingly intelligent and yet sometimes shy, awkward and as unassuming about how sure she is about her feelings and doing the absolute right thing as she is about her on fantastic beauty.
Next episode: Yanks in the UK (1)Season four begins all the way in England, with Booth speaking at Scotland Yard and Brennan guest-lecturing at the prestigious Oxford University. Knowing of Booth and Brennan's expertise in their respective fields, local officials ask for their help with a high-profile murder investigation that involves a British heiress.
