Shit They Give Us, 2nd Edition: ridiculous chipmunks

There's a new concessionist in town
 at least he smiles. (behind him are ugly new signs, how I miss the old chalk ones.)
 Aaaaand, more face swap, incased you missed it already.
 tessa looks like a Juggelette. I look like I shouldn't exist.
 James makes it look real. (R.I.P. ticket maker robot)
These ended up in the garbage in only a couple of days, usually it takes longer. I wanted to keep them around and make a game out of hiding them places, but no one seemed at the same level as me.

Hair by Angela

It gets reeeeaal boring, especially in the summer. we do this.
 I think CJ was taking a picture of himself on his computer. Got it covered.
 Angela does her own hair too
 And mine, while Jon serenades me

Ok, let's do Face Swap.

OK, these are summa the first swaps ever to grace our existence.

Chrinessa and Vanistian: an internet celebrity and an androgynous irish caveman.
 Vylan and Danessa: that dude at the metal concert and a disneyland safari guide.
 Andron and Jondrea: broken jaw and Matt Damon's weird little brother
 Angelon and Jongela: Mandy Moore and Matt Damon's weird little sisters.
 Angelly and Kelgela: this just makes me real happy.
Timice and Candothy: Zach P and me lookin' fiine with a beard.
 Cincent: Russian spy.

Hot Gams!

Hot Gams is legendary, this is the only known photograph in existence. How the hell does she keep those legs so firm and supple? She's gotta be 80. And she's so quick, you can't look twice.

Shit They Give Us, 1st Edition: "Babies" Snuggies

 Corporate likes to give us presents, they tell us to give them to customers, but how and why? the only time I gave something to a customer, 5 other people demanded one too. No Way.

Here's the snuggies with "Babies" embroidered on the front, Modeled by Peter and Dylan.
John and I took a different direction...
 ...embracing the cult.
 Lil' impish demons
They also gave us tshirts, specifically to the staff, which we wear sometimes. James wore his to the coffee shop where the girl behind the counter asked in what seemed like the most degrading and accusatory way, "Are you seriously wearing a shirt that says 'babies...?'"

the beginning: bag heads, maxwell and the fountain.

I started working at the Tower Theatre in downtown Sacramento on December 16th, 2008. My brother had just quit, and somehow I still hired after putting the worst possible references (people I later learned stole considerable amounts from the company). Reading was desperate, I guess. But before that..

Here's the first picture I ever took of Tower. Yes, it was in front of the fountain. There was only fun  though, no posing.
I attended my first Tower Midnight Screening with the film "Baghead," possibly one of the worst movies I've ever seen for free. But the boys made pretty masks.
 And pretty dance moves. (the movie got so amazingly terrible that these two got in front of the screen with no shirts on and did the wheel-barrel. best part of the film, hands down.. on the floor..)
 An homage to dear ex-employee Maxwell (pictured above).
 And of course I took another photo of that goddamn fountain!
