where its at

"the big city can get lonely"

it says on a giant billboard overlooking

the church of jesus christ branding and advertising.

i was thinking i was a priest or a prophet

or at least somehow powerful.

countries make war on other countries

and countries are made by their internal

cultures. and internal cultures are made

by stories told by corporations and by

moms, to young kids. now im a power

mom with a loaded gun and a bottle

of bourbon and a nation of children,

mouths watering, ready to sink

teeth into a massive american burger.

i will tell them what it tastes like.

and then we go to war.

ATTN:

If you thought that my last post was "bleak," please consider yourself informed that I recently did a contract shoot at an extremely posh auction to support the Make-A-Wish foundation.

This involved 800 extremely wealthy, 50-to-70-year-old Caucasians getting drunk off $200-a-bottle wine at one of San Francisco's fanciest Financial District venues and then buying overpriced auction items to support the Make-A-Wish foundation, which arranges for terminally-ill children to have their "last wishes" fulfilled (where these "last wishes" involve something expensive, like going on an African safari with a movie star, etc.).

Of course, sometimes these "terminally-ill" children survive against all odds, and the most attractive / presentable of them were invited to the auction to perform (ex. the Foundation bought this aspiring violin player a Stradivarius while he was dying of "terminal" cancer at age 12, but he lived, now he's 18, and they took him on stage to perform while all the rich people cried due to emotions/wine).

IT'S A CELEBRATION BITCHES!

P.S. Also brace for camera nerd talk- this was the first time I used a light meter that didn't measure light through the lens of my camera.
