See that long string thing? That’s a subterranean termite mud tunnel going from the ground up. It’s amazing how they can make such things, but this is under a house which gets no breeze.

It was soon after issue 18. Now you can celebrate the 10 years by checking out Barracuda store on Melrose. 7769 Melrose. LA, CA 90066. I don’t know how many different kinds of figures there are, but I got the girl figure which is really nice. This show promises to be interesting. The day after, you have to come to see the Masakatsu Sashie show in Hollywood – 20th Century Boy. Airholes on the box, 1) to probably pain bootleggers by adding an extra step. 2) the figure needs to breathe like a cabbage patch doll. The text from the invite.

Sometimes, sneakers just don't cut it. You can't beat the feeling of a thin layer of ocean water on top of the sand that's muddy and gives-in just the right amount.
