2 Weeks to Go...

Alright, so technically it's 2 weeks & 2 days to go until my opening, but since I'll be hanging the work on Wed, I need it all done by that Tue. SO... I have the 2 shortest weeks of my life to finish everything I'd like to get done for this. Not sure if I'll make it, but, you can be damn sure that whatever does end up on the wall @ Jamian's is gonna be some good shit. Here's every goddamned little thing as of right now:

Some Quick Links

I know I've been off the grid for the past few days. I had a loooong weekend between my bartending gig and filling in on camera for Monmouth Park's TV dep't on Haskell Day (and, if you think there's not a big 'Rachel Alexandra wins The Haskell' planned for Jamian's you're crazy). It actually took me till today to finally get my ass out of bed and in gear to do some real work. So, I will definitely have updated studio pics for you later today. In the meantime, here are some good links I stumbled across today:

Tyler Kepner's got a great article in the NY Times this morning about how the Yankees are far more prepared to take on the Sox this go around than they were earlier this season. I'd link to a story in the Daily News but reading Lupica or Raismann's take on anything involving the Yanks is like watching a Goebbels film to learn about the Torah.

Speaking of that little piece of shit Lupica, Deadspin takes him to task in what I can only hope is the first of a series of "Real Tales of Mike Lupica". Great stuff about a small man and his giant ego.

The Onion's A.V. Club knocked two out of the park this morning with Sean O'Neal's hilarious Daily Buzzkill on NBC's scorched earth tactics to get you to watch Leno's sure-to-be-shitty 10pm show. And, Nathan Rabin turned in another great "My Year Of Flops" casefile (and, if you haven't read any of them, you should really go back and read ALL of them) on Nic Cage's 1991 straight-to-dvd flop 'Zandalee' that literally had me laughing out loud.

Enjoy kids. Back with more later.

More Details On The Show

After a long bartending shift last night, I slept in this morning, something I rarely get to do with a hyper active dog in the apt, but The Mick was generous and let me sleep till noon after getting to bed @ 4:30. So, no painting got done as I spent much of the day cooking, cleaning, gloating over David Ortiz's outing as a 'roid user, and - oh yeah - the flyer for my art show:

That's right, complimentary food, wine, and beer. I still have to pick a food menu, but the beers will most likely be Guinness, Yuengling, and Long Trail Pale Ale. Hey, when I throw a party I don't skimp.

If you're not following along on twitter yet or a fan on facebook, please do so, and keep checking back for more updates as I keep right on rolling toward this world-changing event.

Tiger Update No. 1

Here's what I managed to get done on that Tiger painting this afternoon in between apt. cleaning, laundry, and updating all my web crap. Off to Jamian's now to iron out all the details of the opening. Back with more later tonight.
