Albert Reyes compound in El Sereno hosted the annual Halloween haunted house maze. Bigger than last year and the year before by all accounts, the cavernous fuel for fire had numerous turns and features. My favorite being the secret observation deck. You’d never know that it was there. Albert says this took a year to build! It was great seeing Albert take material from almost everywhere for this, and although it looked sketchy, he insists it’s very safe. The View from above. Albert made what looks like a soweto. Ayako Fujitani on the second floor. See the second floor? That’s balcony. A mini art show took place with Albert Reyes, Matt Furie, and Aiyana Udesen. Albert served me up tamales! Here’s some images from the inside of the haunted maze. Ryan Reyes insists that his mom made the penis. But the pelvic thrusts were his own. Megan Whitmarsh who raided Mike Kelley’s trash. Matt Furie. Anyone know who the comedian mask is?

Look out for these in 2010. That's Aki from Good Smile. A cool dude who made it across the ocean from the pacific to be there. Glad we got to hang out. It's fun thinking with him. That's Enna on the right. A GS staffer.



She had some heels on! 90210, Lipstick Jungle, and now Witches of Eastwick star, Lindsay Price came though. I'm a fan.

That's Martin and I standing in front of the wall of magazines. 62 issues doesn't quite look like 62 when they're hung this way. Actually it's short one, you can figure it out. But by the time you see it in person again, it'll be right. Yet, it's a powerful wall and I'm glad it's there at JANM. It makes me laugh how many people trip out of the suits. This being a museum opening, and I suppose...

That’s Martin and I standing in front of the wall of magazines. 62 issues doesn’t quite look like 62 when they’re hung this way. Actually it’s short one, you can figure it out. But by the time you see it in person again, it’ll be right. Yet, it’s a powerful wall and I’m glad it’s there at JANM. It makes me laugh how many people trip out of the suits. This being a museum opening, and I suppose people expect us to dress in street clothes, so the idea is the flip it and go clean. That’s me, ex-Secretary of Transportation and the namesake of the San Jose Airport, Norman Mineta, David Choe, and Albert Reyes. I gave a short tour for Norman Mineta who’s a big part of the museum and does support GR. It was great to have him here. I wonder where is Secret Service agents were at? That means they were doing a great job. Gary and Goh stalk the grounds.It was big smiles for both of them. That’s Deth P. Sun. It was great that he made it down. Late of course, but that’s Deth, he can be an enigma. He even waited in line to get to see his work. That was a gift from Mari Inukai. GR Staffers. Keyla, Luana, myself, Serina, Sasha, and Seth. Quite a crew. Aaron Brown and Dario B were there as well. That’s me and Marc Gerald. Chris Bettig and kozy from kozyndan. She was dressed nice. Jim Lee. Have any ideas on what was the Brand New? Heavies? Whoa… Horvath, a chika (I swear she’s for real), Sam, and Le Merde. James and Wen. Big smiles. Rob 62 Sato wearing his map bag. The band. David Choe’s mom and Dave. Proud parents and supportive too. The artists who were in the foto. That’s us on stage. Michelle Borok Rama Hughes Christine Castro Cate and Clement. Amy Hill. James and Dan (kozyndan) Joe Hahn in back and Anthony Batt (buzznet.com) interviews. Stella Lai runs to the red
