Here we are, the last Free Fridayz of 2011.
How many years have we been doing these?! Must be in the 8 year zone, at least. In any case, Tis the Season is this week's theme, and the next theme up is New Year's Resolution.
Email in your New Year's Resolution themed drawings (freefridayz (at) fecalface.com). We'll make sure the prize is a good one to start 2012.

Everyone's version of Sexy is obviously different. Maybe you're into latex, big muscles, thigh highs, shaved heads, big/ small/ inbetween, intelligence, humor, we all have certain things that turn us on both physically and mentally. For Peekaso it's a overflowing plate of bacon.
Sexy facts?:
*In Hong Kong, adulterous husbands get more than a steep monthly alimony payment – a betrayed wife is legally allowed to kill her husband if he cheats on her – but she may only do so with her bare hands.
*Semen contains zinc and calcium, both of which are proven to prevent tooth decay.
*Hitler and Napoleon both had only one testicle.
*Average number of times a man will ejaculate in his lifetime: 7,200
*According to Archives of General Medicine, coffee drinkers have sex more frequently and enjoy it more than non-coffee drinkers.
*view Free Fridayz: Sexy |

We were away from Free Fridayz for a bit while summer commenced - people traveled, sun-bathed, swam, drank adult drinks, etc...
Now that all (or most) are back to work and school, let's get drawing again... and we'll get back to giving away prizes to those who submit the best drawings. --> onto the submitted drawings.

Everyone's on vacation. You're most likely checking Fecal Face from your IPad on a beach in the middle of the Bahamas sipping on a drink that has an umbrella sticking out of it while crabs nibble at your toes. Is it warm and beautiful? Are there tropical birds shitting on your shoulder? I wouldn't know.
We walk up and down Haight Street every day coming and going from Fecal Face. It's so easy to spot the tourists with their maps out, cameras hanging on their chests casually strolling up to Haight and Ashbury. On those beautiful crisp mornings, they make me wish I was in total vacation mode. I would buy them a crepe and an ice cream sandwich in appreciation.

I think it would be a great time to publicly thank Ashley Taylor who puts together Free Fridayz here at Fecal Face every week. Not only does she do that, but she also has spent a serious amount of Saturdays gallery sitting at the old Gough St. space while we played in the sunshine.
Friggen Fraggen theme submitted by Travis Gillan (Denver, CO). |
What you should know about Ashley is that she takes wonderful photos. Check her site and see for yourself: 4blankwalls.com
So how about a short rant unrelated to how rad Ashley is. In fact, the rant will have nothing to do with Ashley at all. It'll just be written under the public thank you and your photos are rad words I wrote above. Maybe it would be best if I started a new paragraph to visually separate as well.
Did you know that The Animal Control and Welfare Commission here in San Francisco recommends that the city ban the sale of tropical fish and gold fish?.
Have you ever eaten a gold fish? I ate 3 in one night (I need to dig up the footage). 4 other Howard House residents downed the lil' guys too. This is no rant. It's a silly state of fact.
If you must, don't chew. Best with a large glass of water. -Trippe

It's going to rain this weekend here in San Francisco... Like record breaking amounts of rain. What's up with that shit?! It hasn't rained this much since like 1864 or something.
And we had the whole weekend off to play as well. That's rare. We normally have to work on Saturdays, but because we're between shows, it's a 2 day weekend but you know what? We're just going to work... Well, at least on Saturday. Maybe the rain will break on Sunday... That's the goal.
Tonight, we're going to put on rain gear, grab a bottle of wine and walk around San Francisco and pretend we're on vacation in Alaska. -Trippe

Entry from Junkyard Sam |
Fudge this noise, it's freakin' Friday, and we've had a crazy ass few months. Sometimes you gotta bail from work early and go for bike ride. The weather is starting to get nice and fresh air is in dire need.
You know what's a lot of fun? Ride across the Golden Gate Bridge and then take the ferry home. Don't buy the alcohol on the boat. It's expensive. Bring your own. They don't care, but don't tell them Fecal Face told you to do it. They might get upset. -Trippe |

So yes, the voting will remain the same. You need to login in order for your vote to count, but as many of you have suggested, it seems that some of the votes are less than honest. A solution suggested by many of you is to start a discussion within the comments throughout the week, and in the end, Fecal Face should choose the winner considering your votes and comments. Sound good? Is Free Fridayz still totally Stupid? You decide.
<-- SHINE submitted this gem.

 Walk. View art and music. Drink a beer. Eat a sandwich. High five a couple friends. Try not to fall. Enjoy the locals. Smell the air. Toast of the town you are... What are you doing later? Maybe we should get some beers and play music... Or we could just stay here and drink some more... Or, go home and light a tree on fire. Stand back and admire your skill at lighting matches. Maybe I'll smoke next to the fire and wonder what would have happened if you said hello to that cute girl who like was totally checking you out. Your friend totally saw it, but you're always a little scared... Well, here we are now. Maybe put the fire out and crash. Listen to your favorite album while making a piece of toast and think about going surfing tomorrow morning. That'll feel nice.

Oh man, Nasal Issues suck. Can't breath. Horrible way to try and get to sleep. Gives me huge anxiety just thinking about it... You know what? Fight it. Stay up all night and draw for Free Fridayz. Listen to loud music and scare it away. Maybe some death metal? Whiskey? 3 packs of Winstons?... Yeah, maybe not. Put that sniffer over a pot of steaming water. Mix in some gasoline.

Man, it's been a month since the last time we added a Free Fridayz?! Well, it's been a crazy month with moving the gallery and all... In any case, here's this week's Free Fridayz.
Next week's theme to get your drawings in for? Well, that would be NASAL ISSUES... My nose is acting up and I wanna see drawings explaining what the hell is wrong with it. Should be a grand Free Fridayz next week... But this week is down right funky as well. I mean, we have Haight St. One of the things our grand city is known for. Damn hippies peace signing it up and how the street has changed since the summer of love. All that's missing is a Crazy Shirts. Already have those crazy sexy legs.

We are so damn excited about moving FFDG next week that this week's Free Fridayz theme is: MOVIN' ON UP.
Many great entries this week. You wanna know a secret? It takes two to tango, and I never learned how to dance... Dance? May I have your hand for this second in time? But why you ask?... I don't know but when we were on our way home last night we ran into your sister and instead of going home we stayed out drinking. So today we are slow. Slow in the brain and I'm looking forward to getting a beer which I may in fact do at around 5 or so. In the meantime, I'm going to Caffe Trieste for another cup of coffee. A small half caffeinated one would work best. I don't wanna get all shaky AND I don't wanna have disturbed sleep tonight. Need to be fresh on Monday. We're moving the gallery on Tuesday and the week is going to be a busy one... See what just happened? Now we've come 360 and are back to my point... We're moving the gallery. UP? Well, the elevation is in fact UP and next door neighbor will be Upper Playground and their initials and U.P. Oh how apt for you? --> I need to urinate as well.

Catching air is something that only select few can fully comprehend. All those considering must be mindful of caution like feeble minded aspects to get your teeth caught in... Caught air? Catch air on your foot and try walking like that for a solid week... I bet that would be extremely difficult. Ever drop in on vert? The first time I did was in Ocean City, Maryland like in 1988 and I ate shit. In fact, my front foot never touched the board, but instead went right over the top and I proceeded to tumble down the ramp... and it was freakin' hot. They used to cook eggs on that thing on hot days. No joke. Metal vert ramp like 14 feet tall that would get hot enough to cook eggs on... The best part was that they older dudes who coached me to eat shit we're hyped that I went for it... It didn't hurt too bad in the end, and I gained the respect of the older skaters... Or I should say that I entertained them for 10 minutes in one horrific blow... As I got older I loved making the little ones drop in. Good laughs but you gotta pay your dues. You gotta prove that you have enough balls to go for it. CATCH AIR!

The Story of Sue Nami
Tuesday, 31 January 2012, 9:36am
In the days following the Fukushima nuclear disaster, I was asked to make a poster for the Devo show at the Warfield Theatre in San Francisco. The image was a Japanese girl, wearing a nuclear t shirt, with the kanji character for earth tattooed on her shoulder. She was dead. I called her Sue Nami, and much to my surprise, the band liked it. ~keep reading Zolton's story of Sue.

Ever Gold in SF opens a month long residency with Josh Short's Bomb Shelter Radio and Tenderloin Self- Defense Club tonight, Thurs (6-10pm). Check the video for a complete picture of what to expect.
Over the course of his residency at Ever Gold Gallery, Josh Short will build "Bomb Shelter Radio" and host several live sonic events that will include experimental noise transmissions, live metal and hardcore bands, and subversive FM radio interventions. This will also be aided by guerrilla public installations of radios installed around the Tenderloin bringing his interventions directly to the street as a form of audio graffiti.

| Hola from Tequisquiapan Mexico
Hey there, I just got back from a short residency down in a small town two hours north of Mexico City called Tequisquiapan. I was asked to come down there to meet some of the crew of the Clipperton Project, which basically is going to be a crazy boat trip in March with scientists and artists going out to a very remote atoll in the Pacific called Clipperton Island. Anyways, I thought you might like to see some photos of the town and the graffiti that I was surprised to find there.

We can finally shut up about FFDG's fire, about FFDG's temp space, about all the transitions, because we signed a 2 year lease on a new space in the heart of the Mission District last night!

| Real Etheral by Evan Mann
Real Ethereal embraces our mysterious relationship with life. It blends the physical with the metaphysical on a journey through an ever-transitioning space where common interactions become extraordinary and perception ventures into the otherworldly. Real Ethereal examines possibilities of unseen realities and metaphorically represents the winding path that reveals before us and conceals behind us; the future remains a mystery while the past fades quickly into the recesses of our mind. We are left with the present: the mysterious reality of our existence; the hair of time difficult to grasp.

Before the show it was pretty much just me and Pacolli painting the whole gallery and doing all the instalations and hanging all the work. lots of shit to be done. I also painted the front of Choque the week after the opening. And we had a little concert at Choque in which I played keyboard and two other folks played guitar and sang. Ephameron went there the day before the opening and did a tape installation as well. During the month we also had a zine/print/shirt sale at Choque as well. It all went very well and we had a blast! -Mildred
