I guess congratulations are in order?

Did my friend Emilio get married in Las Vegas? Now I really wish I’d made it! Anyway, if so congratulations, and if not, well, you got me! Left photo by Mute-One, right by Steve.

And normally I’d stay “what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas”, but since I’m the official leak for the APP, here’s my PS. Yeah, I know who you are even in that fancy getup.

Wiki In Place!

Wow, sorry I had to take a few days off from posting here on ModBlog. Jon and I have stayed up until six in the morning (or later) every night since I last posted working on the system, and about two hundred other editors have been putting in serious time as well…. If you’d like to take a preview look (it’ll go “official” tomorrow), here’s the URL:

Anyway, today I’m posting a ton of entries for you as a thank you for your patience!

Good night all!

Cheap Jewelry Sucks

Folks, this is why you shouldn’t buy cheap crap jewelry. I’m thinking about posting who made this but I haven’t decided yet whether I want the legal fight. But I will tell you that this jewelry was not removed from a human — it was in storage for a few months in a drawer for a few months in its original packaging… Think what would have happened if it had been in, say, a tongue for a few months!

Good jewelry is expensive because the materials being used are high quality. Do you really want to skimp on this? Maybe this helps illustrate why a good barbell doesn’t cost $2.99.

So that’s what Spanish Joe Rogan looks like!

…And I guess the woman in the last picture is the Croatian Joe Rogan?

“Frente Al Miedo” is the Columbian franchise of Fear Factor. As you may remember, in 2003 Fear Factor featured play piercing, and I guess the franchisees are using the same idea.

What’s particularly interesting to me is that they filmed the Croatian and Columbian episodes with the same crew (and piercer) — and that this production happened not in either of those two countries, but in Buenos Aries, Argentina! Piercing was by Juan Manuel Burgos from Face Tattoo in BSAS (photo credit: wild skin).

Look Carefully

I’m not fully online right now (couch-surfing for a few days at least) so until that’s over my posting here may be slightly sporadic… but I’ll try and post bigger sets to compensate. I’m looking at a few very nice spaces for me and the BME “offices” in Toronto that hopefully will start no later than February first. Anyway, enjoy today’s updates!
