Well, I've read through that handbook for the recently deceased.It says: 'live people ignore the strange and unusual.I,myself,am strange and unusual.

Yesterday I took a trip into the city via Metronorth with my good pal/Broseph/fellow tattooist Frank Luca. We headed in to the M.O.M.A. to see the Tim Burton art exhibit. Let me tell you, it was, by far, one of the most amazing and inspiring art exhibits ive ever laid these big blue eyes on. Simply enchanting. As most of you know, you cant take photos, so i did some sneaky shots. A couple are kind of blurry, but you get the drift. After the private tour of the exhibit, we were able to catch BeetleJuice on the big screen. Beetlejuice is by far one of my favorite movies EVER. With an amazing cast (Catherine Ohara, Alec Baldwin, Geena Davis, Winona Ryder and Batman himself Michael Keaton) and an amazing score from the talented Danny Elfman (Oingo Boingo) how can you do wrong? I will admit I hadnt ever seen it in a theater, with the release date of 1988, I was a wee young lad of 9. So it was truly entertaining to see it in a theater. In all, I do suggest making some time to see this exhibit for yourself. The exhibit is open from November 22, 2009–April 26, 2010. It has certainly made me want to sketch like mad and open up my imagination. I believe it will do the same for you.
Enjoy.
