RIP Bettie Page

Harkening back to the good old days, we have these 6 Degrees of Casey Serin to Bettie Page entries...

Page was saved from bankruptcy by Hugh Hefner. Hefner created Playboy magazine. Playboy magazine was marketed to young men. Similarly young men are also targeted by the YMCA. The YMCA was a popular band for young gay men. Casey Serin.

CAKE!Bettie Paige (who was hot) starred in a movie called Striparama. Striporama featured strippers and other entertainers. Strippers sometimes (erm, so i've heard) give lapdances. Lapdancing was the subject of last year's surprise literary hit, The Lapdance Code.The Lapdance Code was written by webtrepreneur Marty "Butters" Stewart. Marty Stewart is one of the latest people trying to scam our hero Casey.

I think we're solidly back in Schnapps's home court, but I'll throw out a token effort.Bettie Page's first marriage ended in divorce.So will Casey Serin's.

Please channel Bettie's "lost soul" to discipline a certain unaccountable "kid." Whips are kind of like cream and koi and all that good stuff.

See the problem with being able to find linkages everywhere is the extra long post I put in before, but this is the meat of the matter:Richard Forster published a biography about Bettie Page in 1997. This biography, accoriding to wikipedia, accounts for several stays in mental institutions, including Patton State Hospital in Highland, California.Aspeth has tracked someone logging in from a Utah mental institution to Nigel Swaby's blog.Nigel Swaby is a part of the Casey Serin story - one time supporter, now semi-supporter, semi-hater (much like semi-vegan).(Alternative posted below)

Alternatively, in a late 1990s interview, Page said she wouldn't allow any current pictures of her to be shown because of concerns about her weight. Casey doesn't allow any pictures of his family to be shown.Another alternative: Page contends that the late 1990s biography by Forster is "full of lies" (along with Hefner). Casey claims that the haterz are full of lies.It could also be argued that Casey is full of lies.

I have to say, Wikipedia is a good source of useless information.Much better than Trivial Pursuit :>

Borrowing a page from Schnapps and using Wikipedia (since I previously had no clue who Bettie Page is):-Bettie Page was sent a letter from Howard Hughes, asking her to meet him.-Howard Hughes was involved in a near-fatal aircraft accident, but fortunately, was rescued by a Marine Master Sergeant.-One of Casey's brothers is a Marine.

Like Bettie Page, Serin also enjoys dressing up in nylons and women's "dainties" and being spanked -- both verbally and literally.

Ooh, I simply Adore Bettie Page. Dita VonTeese too. Tiny, cute, darkhaired pinups.Let's see....I can't beat Nigel's Guest Blogger; (and swamp-donkey's..LOL) those are great posts; but I'll comment anyway.Bettie Page posed for camera clubs, nudes, bondage and eventually Playboy.She then found the righteousness of the Church and God.Casey has also found the righteousness of the Church and God.Casey

My friend once met Betty somewhere in
Sausalito. Said she was adorable and very nice. Agreed, well at least the adorable part.

Give Yourself a Gift

My number one find today was FUCK YOU, PENGUIN!
Not only is it hilariously absurd, but potentially therapeutic as well.

Wow - just wow is all I can say about this 1939 Colt Handgun ad.

Ronald Kurniawan via Cgunit. Please note the title is something along the lines of "College Loan" - can't confirm because I find most artist sites annoyingly Flash, Adobe and/or whatever other crap that freaks me out a bit.
While I have more finds, I'm feeling really fatigued, scattered and cold at the moment.

Flowing Heat AKA Heat Flowing, etc. reminded me of how Derrida enthusiasts ruined Romanticism for me. Skylark is actually a very nice poem unless it has been deconstructed in so many circuitous ways you want to vomit. So I preferred sticking with those boring poets like Keats and T.S. Eliot that Berkeley couldn’t be bothered with.

When old age shall this generation waste,
Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe
Than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou sayst,
"Beauty is truth, truth beauty," -that is all
Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.


The early history of the work is obscure. It is listed in a catalogue of the library at Nonsuch Palace made in 1596 as "a song of fortie partes, made by Mr. Tallys." The earliest surviving manuscripts are those prepared in 1610 for the investiture of Henry Frederick, the son of James I, as Prince of Wales.

Monsters Are Good For You

Although I can't read much of it I still think this blog is pretty groovy.

I'm heading out the door now, but I have some real fishnet to post on Nuclear Tentacles later today.

Entropy to Singularity of the Infinite?



Flowing Heat has a really groovy blog. Excellent finds!

Yet apparently it began 11/29.

Pureland Buddhism really isn't my thing. It kind of reminds me of Christianity and I prefer to be whipped into shape when necessary. Life will never be a Disney film.

Mean girls are sad:
P.S. I think this music kind of sucks.

Always thought this was a good song.
My doggy dos and I are planning to walk to a beach near China Camp and go swimming tomorrow.
