2007 Almost As Bad As 2006, Bring On 2008!

For those of you out that checked in today expecting a good number of New Year's Eve posts, I apologize. You see my ISP, who will remain nameless but who’s name starts with Comc and ends with asstastic left me without a connection for the majority of the day.
But anyways, it's about that time. And to help usher in the new year I thought I'd post an appropriately titled "Time After Time" photograph by artist Ori Gersht. What he does is take bouquets, freeze them in liquid nitrogen, and then smashes the hell out them while taking pictures with a high speed camera. I'm pretty sure I saw Mr. Wizard do the same thing (minus the photography) when I was a kid, but that doesn't take away from this piece's awesomeness. Enjoy.
Now everyone get out there and make me proud tonight. Get too drunk, make out with someone that's too ugly, and wake up too hungover. Because that, my friends, is what New Years Eve is all about. Well that, and regretting every decision you made in 2007. So feel free to rant here with any 2007 misgivings or wild New Year's stories that involve serious debauchery. I’ll be back Wednesday if the world hasn’t exploded.
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE, LET IT ALL HANG OUT!

This is a series titled 'Water Wigs' by photographer Tim Tadder and his cohorts. It features bald men with wigs made from water as a result of thrown water balloons popping on their heads. Neat, but I still want mine made out of chocolate milk. We just finished shooting a ... / Continue →
