Christmas Miracle: Flowering Mother In Law's Tongue

Have had this plant, Mother in Law's Tongue or a variegated cultivar of Sansevieria trifasciata and it's many propagations (which have lived in my office, on stage in high school plays, in a bathtub downstairs and out in the yard during summer) since the dawn of time. This is the first time it has flowered in our presence and it has chosen today as its day to get the full blown flower on. Quite wet and juicy during gestation of the bloom. Also known as snake plant.

Wow - Fleischer Christmas!

Holy crap - Charlie Parker.gunslinger, etc, etc. contributor swac posted a link to the Fleischer Brothers online Museum which has a wunderbar collection of Christmas cards.


D*mn! Sh*t! The F*cking Best Xmas Gift Ever, B*stards and B*tches!

Spotted by me and purchased at the thrift shop TODAY, by Lex 11. Who wouldn't want to protect their families' precious ears from foul language? Klik 4 bigger

It has a handy chart using amount of cusses removed from popular movies, in order to prove "f"-icacy.














AND It has a setting to allow schmucks like Pat Robertson to shout "Jesus Christ!" without it getting bleeped.





Hooray for Curse Free TV - Fuck Yeah!

What's This Year's MOST INAPPROPRIATE (and creepy) Christmas Gift?

Saw this in a department store recently, but I didn't have my phone (while lamenting that, some chump sarcastically assured me that I would get along fine without it)... so I found it on their site: A PENN STATE STUFFED LION, KIDS!


Seriously, some jokes write themselves, no?

Damn the torpedoes, let merchandising commence!

Xmas Present 4 all of U

I've had this clear vinyl Rhino Punk Christmas Tree shaped record since the dawn of CDs. And because of the dawn of CDs I bought a Kenwood linear tracking turntable (because it behaved like a CD player) that won't play the second track of this EP on either side all the way through.



The pressing always sucked, but thanks to Audacity it has been rendered pretty listenable.



First Xmas cut: The Ravers - Punk Rock Christmas 3:32


Second cut: The Dragons - Silent Night 2:56


Have a good Holiday from Lex10 here at GlyphJockey.

Awesome Xmas Find: SANTA V. SATAN - Ole'

Saw this in Spanish years ago in the middle of the night, & wondered what the hell was going on. Ultra-compelling imagery - couldn't stop watching. We've talked about it every Christmas since. Now I'll be able to find out what's the deal.



Really wicked looking devil, machines with human lips, resourceful kids, and wild sets. I cannot friggin' wait!
