hellos fellows

I spent about 10 years of my life living near Sing Sing prison in Ossining, NY. Maybe this is why I love Oz so much...(Apparently Oswald is based on Sing Sing.)


Notable prisoners of Sing Sing include Albert Fish, Ethel and Julius Rosenberg, and some rapper named Bang 'Em Smurf (which is the only reason I mention him.)

I sort of developed this interest in prisons and mugshots. Well actually, I suppose my interest is more with the prisoners than the prisons.

Here is a collection of some of my favorite mugshots. (Most of them are my favorites because I think the subjects are good looking.)


David Bowie was my ultimate dreamboat from 1997-2003.





Patty Hearst.





In 1968, Billy Wayne Hayes was sentenced to 10 years in prison for murder. He escaped in 1972 and had been missing for 34 years, until 2006.





Valerie Low, 1922. It's really interesting to see how long it took the prison system to come to come up with a consistent pattern of how to take mugshots. I think this is just a beautiful mug shot of her.

and to conclude, I want this book.

Teen heart throbs of my youth

Since the passing of Brad Renfro I've been thinking about my favorite heart throbs.

First and foremost is JTT.
(FYI, he doesn't really get why people can't just call him Jonathan Taylor Thomas. Why do people have to be so lazy??)


UMMMM..what a dreamboat!


Hello? Hi! This is Christine calling. I just wanted to let you know that your last cover of BOP was soooo cute! You are the cutest guy in BOP and BB. Want to go on a date to see Flipper before I go away to sleepaway camp?
When I used to go to sleepaway camp, my dad would send me a letter called The Barrett Tattler. It would be an update of things at home, and in one he counted my JTT posters and reassured me that all 9 of them were okay.

Devon Sawa


His hair was always so nicely parted.




How dreamy was he in Casper? Didn't you all basically melt when he walked down those stairs in that frilly shirt. Christina Ricci...what a bitch.

Andrew Keegan




His lip gloss be poppin'!!!



And last but not least (but dead) Brad Renfro






Out of all of them, he probably took the most topless shots....


When I was in middle school I converted my completely normal sized closet into a little hideout. I had my small television in there, along with my Sega Genesis, a telephone, pillows, and blankets. Also, that's where I hung all of my centerfolds. My pubescent lust had to be kept as secret as possible. So I would sit in there, play Sonic, and think of how, if given a chance, they'd all fall in love with me.
