Yo Bro, I agree with you....we gotta find a divisive tourniquet.. im no Rembrandt but a Starry Nite has a shitload of blackholes! I guess....never know you reach Rock Bottom. No such thing in Space...however!ain't no Hubble but through the Eyes of Yuengling. U can hit Pulsars, Quasars, and Quantum Physics! Lmfao. I'm talkin' vacuum shit! I think I'm a Picasso palettier. Maybe paint in Beer colours! Killians Red...Pyramid Hefe yello. Hay! Oops. Too much hops chewing. We're not Doom....we are Groomed.

Maybe all gotta be reinvented like Tonto & Lone Ranger. Or Howdy Doodie from the 50's or perhaps Shari & Lambchops. One thing is definately for sure. We entered a deflationary mindless world. Division & Hate are as layered as a B-52 shot. I'm hoping we can do better than the dude from Mutual Omaha's Wild Kingdom in introducing cool heroes. Big Foot is my choice of some dude with colossal balls and an appetite as A.L.F which is on to cats. But Hey ....if the Division stays I'm ok we introduce the Wite Yeti. A new Anti-hero maybe in order. Dead minds produce low neuron receptor activity. Maybe psychedelic mushroom therapy or abuse thereof can facilitate a new version of Heroes. DC Comics sure slammed out the pseudo heros in the 40's. I wonder if the Gutenberg Presses used some high VOC ink which stimulated them printer and writer dudes. Only time Will tell if there is be a resurgence of the likes of Greek or Roman God's or heathen pagan Norse punks. Perhaps Lochness , Might Mouse and Underdog will return. The otherside might as well.embrace the hospitality of Polly. The Jamison is running dry and Blarney rock is calling for.a.head trump. Peace out!

You’re an abstract cultural commentary neo-expressionist who paints from a wide palate indeed, M.A.T.!

Yogi Bera’s brilliant line “If something can’t go on forever it will stop” is usually quoted in reference to things going up seemingly forever, like the stock market in 1999 or houses in 2008, but I suppose we can deploy it in the opposite direction as well?

Can our culture crater forever into a black hole? If not, when’s rock bottom? Hopefully soon. And hopefully we’ll bounce off it to new highs and not go splat for a thousand years.

If we need shrooms and Jamison to invent new heroes and through them reinvent ourselves, then queue up The 5th Dimension!
