rich:

"opiate of the masses."

Jeez.

Sarah:

You should know that this blog is one of the first sites to come up in a search for the terms, "harvard square" and "crazy people" (I was seeking a couple specific crazies). While I may not have found what I was looking for, I am digging your blog.

sarah:

this is gay

1minutefilmreview:

Wow!

sushiesque:

Oh, you're quite right. I did not read the fine, italic print.

Icarus does not give me great confidence in their products.

rick:

i'm pretty sure that the propellant is icarus.

Pippa:

A couple are driving home in the dark when the car breaks down, the husband decided to walk to a petrol station for help that was a few miles back, so he locked all the doors,windows and boot. On his return there was a stranger in the car and his wife was dead,there was no damage to the car at all.what happened?????

James Price:

Yeah I found this out the hard way. The people who work at the Library of Congress were none too nice about setting me straight. Most of the people that work there do not want to be bothered, I think. The people that registered me and got me my car (of which there were three) were super nice. But everyone else is either mean or indifferent. I shouldn't have even gotten the reader ID (which you supposedly need to even read anything at the LOC) because I've yet to be stopped and asked for it, even at the "researcher only" entrance! Weak.

semele:

Dear sushiesque - is there any way I can contact you offsite to ask for permission to use one of your photographs?

You can reach me at mirlac@yahoo.com

Thanks so much, and it's a terrific blog.

Kathleen:

Still attracting the crazies, huh? It's nice to know some things never change.

sushiesque:

Erin: I just wish I knew what I was up to.

Obo: Why are they on my doorstep?

obo:

They're fantasy sports league prizes.

Erin:

Clearly you are living a double life.

Jamie:

A man and woman go before a preacher in Pennsylvania to be married, but the preacher says,"I can't marry you two." Why?

sushiesque:

perhaps we could meet up there for a (possibly very cold) picnic?

1. no; I was with my parents, and they had their own agenda.

2. I couldn't find it, but I didn't look too hard. I do hope it has not been felled.

bonus: there was an unusual quantity of big green snails clinging to little rocks in freakish clumps.

Gabriel Mckee:

Awww, jealous-- I love Harkness. I rather want to go back there sometime soon. Two questions:
1. Did you go to Sarge's? I rather want to go back there, too. (It's where I bought my first Ace Doubles!)
2. Did you see the tree with the boob?

Gwynne:

I wish you were around all the time so you could document my meals. Well, that and cuz you're awesome.

saima:

can you answer this?

You have a chicken, a fox, and a sack of cornfeed how do you get across with a boat that holds 2 things only t a time.

Deathchicken:

Well duh, the chickens are locked in there and then they fart all over each other and it gives them the special zest.

Madison Guy:

Heartbreaking.

sushiesque:

Thanks! It was a good day.

Madison Guy:

Really nice sequence. Cool blog, too.

Alie:

what is the answer to this riddle:

most eyes are forced wide open by the dance

it's really confusing to me o.o

Allan. Forsythe:

They call me a man but I'll never have a wife. I was given a body, but not a life.
They made me a mouth, but didnt give me breath. Water gives me life but the sun brings me death

What am I?

ilana:

I cannot figure this riddle!
what can run but never walk what has a mouth but never talks what has a face but does not weep what has a bed but does not sleep

Mimi :

Here is the riddle. "When 1 door closes 9 open. When 9 close 1 opens. What is it?

mike:

there are 12 balls all look the same in all aspect, but one is different in weight. you are allowed to use a balance scale,not a weight measure. if you are allowed to use the scale one three times how do you find the different ball ?
can anyone help

Holy Cuteness:

Wow, gorgeous pics!

Johnny:

Lovely photos:)

Shiraz:

That's sort of awesome. But now I am fascinated to know by what criteria they do decide what to keep.

Justin:

As a youthful book-lover, it was my dream to visit the Library of Congress to read until my brain exploded.

I'm glad I've learned this many years later.

Neck Face out on bail

Tragicbliss.com describes the Beautiful Losers show at the Orange County Museum of Art as "pure sickness" (in a good way) and notes that Neck Face was in attendance:

He wasn’t included in the exhibit, but that didn’t stop him from lurking with his peers. It also didn’t stop him from a Newport Beach bombing mission with Mr. Fairy of Obey fame. According to interweb rumors, Neckfaces run landed him in Orange County lockup with a twenty grand bail… Gnar! [...]
Vacation bombing... That’s called being down for your cause. Propers to you Neckface. Propers.

Jeffrey Mayfield, Neckface Bombs Newport.

"IN WITH THE OLD! NECK FACE!"

BG: What is your typical day like?
NF: My typical day is, wake up and drink some soda for breakfast, go to the garage, blast some Sabbath or Priest...
BG: There is a blog (www.sushiesque.com) with one section dedicated to you. How do you handle the groupies?
NF: What? I got groupies? That's fresh.

So i'm designing the set for a kid's show called The Outsiders. Themes include gang warfare, urban decay, Gone With The Wind, and kids burning to death in churches. Children's theatre at its best. Much of the set is covered in grafitti. I've spent several days, and will probably spend another week, writing every name I can think of in spraypaint and fat marker. In honor of your neck face obsession, I bring you this homage on my set.

like Dylan in the movies

After seeing Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Jess & I got Chinese at Buddha's Delight. All the meat there is fake meat, so the menu makes frequent use of quotation marks: "Chicken" Fingers, "Pork" Lo-Mein, Mixed Vegetables Stir-fried With "Shrimp". Which is supposed to indicate vegetarian food, but sounds like sarcastic food.

I Had A Crush On Neck Face Before It Was Cool

He walked past a newsstand where he had designed an elaborate frieze: a bristly arm, a snake eating a heart, a mouth with “Neck Face” spelled out on each tooth, and the words “God Owes Me Money.” (“He owes me five dollars,” Neck Face said.)

Happy Neck Face Day

My room mate Laura & I were bounding towards Eldo Cake House when this letterbox on Harrison Avenue caught my eye:

nasty_neck_face


I got a slice of almond cake and a slice of mango whipped cream cake. Laura got four slices of cake, because she just got accepted to the graduate program at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts. (GO LAURA.)
