Symbology

So… If I’m to believe tattoo iconography, “anti-racism” is represented by a lollipop (ok, that’s a little silly, but I guess it makes general sense), and “Christianity” is represented by a grenade — as David Rees put it, “Thank you God for your healing gift of religion. Monotheistic religion has always brought out the best in us humans; thank You so much for the idea of a vengeful supernatural entity who rewards people in the afterlife. That shit makes a lot of sense.”

Left tattoo by Krash in Denver (on Vomitrocious), and the other piece, “Victory In Christ”, is by Manuel Cruz at Needlez N’ Threadz in Norco, CA.

Great Tribal Circle Tattoo

I’m a big fan of this piece by Fraktal at Ganesh on IAM:ruben.

Anyway, I know I’m posting a day early (yeah, like you’re mad), but I didn’t realize my flight came back early enough in the day to post this. Other than that, I’m thinking about converting this blog to a WordPress2 interface (I just have to write the plug-in for IAM)… What do you think? It would greatly improve some of the core features (and speed) of the site. I have a couple more important programming tasks, but I can’t imagine it would be difficult.

Also new this week, I’ll be training Phil to do BME updates start-to-finish, meaning that we’re going to try updating five times a week (four image updates and one experience update) for a while and see how it goes. Feedback appreciated on all of this.
