Dead Body Flakes.


Artist Marco Evaristti is working with Texas inmate and murderer of 3, Gene Hathorn on an anti-capital-punishment exhibit. The exhibit will be staged after Hathorn's execution. The murderer's body is to be frozen, then made into flakes that museum visitors could feed to goldfish. Evaristti is most noted for his 2000 exhibit in which he placed live goldfish in several electric blenders and invited museum visitors to turn them on. WOW.

Is it really too much to ask?


Someone please be Baberaham Lincoln for Halloween!
PLEASE?

Hot Chip's Alexis Taylor squeezes out solo album



Yep! And, it includes a Paul McCartney cover!

Because touring, recording and remixing every song from the last year hasn't killed him yet, Alexis Taylor of Hot Chip, the one with the old man hipster glasses, has just released a solo joint.

"Rubbed Out" includes a cover of Paul McCartney's "Coming Up", and it's available this very moment from Treader.
Think he was just trying for some unsavory comments when naming it?
Hmmmm.

Another reason I hate being poor.

Man names his newborn after McPalin Republimart.

WHAT?
Yes. It's true.
A father of a newborn girl has secretly named his offspring after the Republican ticket. Sarah McCain Palin was barely born when Mark Ciptak of TN penned the name on the documents for the poor child's birth certificate. The baby, who was supposed to be named Ava Grace, will certainly be doomed for greed, idiocy and religious fanaticism - but hey! Maybe she will hunt real good-like!
"I don't think she believes me yet,"said Mr. Ciptak to the Kingsport Times-News. 'It's going to take some more convincing." Ciptak, a said he named his third child after John McCain and Sarah Palin to 'to get the word out' about the campaign.
Good way to do it! Enjoy divorce!!
