Junk Street

Where one man’s trash is another man’s blog post.

Native American meets non-native Brooklyn. Was someone sleeping here? Does this blanket carry disease? What’s going on here? Any thoughts?

Other Imbeciles

Posted on April 24, 2011 | Leave a comment

I’m certainly not the only imbecile that “contributes” to the Internet blogosphere of love. Take these two Tumblr accounts each with a single theme.  Above, we have “Non-threatening Vampires” and below, “Where’s Randy Savage?” of old school “Macho Man” fame.  As I daydream either of my parents replying to my own blog (if I told them about it) “What is the purpose of this?” I say: Press your luck!  Big money, big money.  Come on, No Whammies, No Whammies!!

Oiled Up

Posted on April 24, 2011 | Leave a comment

I see this every day on my way to work when I pass through “Long Islan City” as they spelled it. It doesn’t seem healthy looking on a lumberyard fence in industrial Queens, but it’s actually a wholesale kosher cooking oil company that provides certificates of origin on all of their products, but I still get the WTF? going through my brain every now and then when I see it.

Chandeliers

The chandeliers above are made out of bicycle chains by Carolina Fontoura Alzaga (via Neatorama).  The chandeliers below are made of human remains from a creepy chapel in the Czech Republic (via Kuriositas).

An Apology To David Byrne

Posted on April 23, 2011 | Leave a comment

Let me just say that I love David Byrne, most notably from the Talking Heads.  His music and art is the perfect balance of pop culture and being highly perceptive.  I saw him in Soho once in the summer time on one of those folding bikes, wearing matching plaid shorts, shirt and hat.  I couldn’t help but yell out, “David!” and he smiled and nodded.  What a guy! But don’t steal his shit, like former Florida Republican Govenor, Charlie Crist, who used his music without permission for a Senate campaign that he lost.  Not only will David Byrne beat you in court, he will make you videotape a formal apology for all Byrne fans to enjoy (via Edgeway’s Metafilter page)

S C I – F R I : Lube

Posted on April 22, 2011 | Leave a comment

I’m just like a lab machine:

I require a ton of lube (and some wipes) to be used properly.

Gourmet Imbecile: Our Salad Days

Posted on April 21, 2011 | 2 Comments

You may not know this about me, but most weeknights you will find me making not one, but two identical salads made by someone with a fine arts degree and a sincere love of vegetables.  Of course, one is for me and the other is for the lady and I’m constantly looking for new ingredients or combinations to keep things interesting in the bedroom, I mean kitchen.  Bon Appetit!
