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.

Not sure what this week's prize is going to be since the Sylvia Ji print got destroyed by the fire... We'll come up with something good. Actually, got an epic book the other day which we're going to feature on FF tomorrow. You'll dig it and wanna win it.
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.
Ok, now that people are getting back into their post summer normalcy, let's get Free Fridayz rolling once again. Get your drawings in by this Friday for a chance at winning the Australia's newest King Brown Magazine filled with artists interviews and other goodness printed on high quality paper.
This week's theme: What Scares The Shit out of You. - email your drawings to: freefridayz (at) fecalface.com
Blake Jones emailed his drawing in. Being attacked by a Gremlin, Chucky and Freddy riding on the back of a massive crab scares the shit out of Blake.
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
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.
We take forever getting prizes mailed out. Everyone cheats with the voting system. It's meant to be a weekly contest, but takes Fecal like forever to get a new one up... STUPID FREE FRIDAYZ <-- is this week's theme, and it WILL be going live this Friday and we WILL be giving away a Michael Sieben print... Yeah right, heard that before.
Email your Stupid Free Fridayz themed drawing to freefridayz (at) fecalface.com like Greg Bemis of Portland, OR has before... this Friday.
Mark Whalen (Kill Pixie), who's showing with Jay Howell at FFDG w/ an opening set for Sat., Feb 18th (6-9pm), did paintings for Autolux's new video for The Science of Imaginary Solutions which was animated & directed by Thomas McMahan. The video premieres online Feb 12th at midnight.

A bunch of Mission district businesses here in SF (Mike Giant, Benny Gold, Joshy D, and others) got together to put together a Mission Map of businesses you should check out.

Say hi to Fecal Face & FFDG's new intern, Alexander Uhrich, who's in his last year at SFAI. He has to put in 90 hours of work, so you'll be seeing a lot of him.
Check his site to check his photography... Mucho eye entertainment to be viewed.
Hey, if you're a Tumblr fan, Fecal Face is on there as well. We'll be posting a taste of what you see here on the site... Tumblr was nice enough to give us fecalface.tumblr.com since someone had it but never made a post on it... You know what? Wonder if we claimed it years back and forgot about it. Hum.
Ryan Wallace & Chris Duncan open Transmission Lines in Toronto at Cooper Cole Gallery Friday, Feb 3rd.
Wallace and Duncan's linear variations of shape explore the margins of time and space while echoing the unstable tension between vision, perception, and reflection. Both artists explore a variety of materials to great visual effect. ~complete show details.
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'sBomb 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. During the day the gallery will become the "Tenderloin Self-Defense Club", where Short will offer martial arts instruction to the neighborhood inhabitants, artists, and musicians. ~show details
The rain came down hard on the 20th but people came through to view the massive show featuring works from Albert Reyes, Aiyana Udesen, and Matt Furie. The show runs through Feb 11th.
Last week we did our first themed Photo of the Day asking you to email in your quintessential San Francisco photos. We got so many great entries and couldn't squeeze them all in. So, here's a bit of overflow from the images emailed in.
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 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.
Recent UC Santa Cruz photography graduate Sean Vranizan emailed over this series of images he creates by using a scanner as a camera, upon which found and collected objects, both two-dimensional and three, were used in collage format.
SF based artists Alex Ziv & Quinn Arneson are in their final year at the San Francisco Art Institute and open the two person show UNIBROW: BRIDGING THE GAP Thursday, Dec 8th at Gallery Heist.
Great new video by Philadelphia based director Tobias Stretch whose videos feature his puppet work - If you have some time, browse his other great bizarre dreamlike videos.
A few November weekends back, I headed down with Travis Millard and Jim Dirschberger for o Breaks, a group show curated by Jay Howell and Louis Schmidt, which opened 11.11.11 at Double Break store and gallery in San Diego, CA.
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
I am dealing with a new series called "Pseudo-Advertising", where I focus upon the relationship between today’s muralism and the contemporary outdoor advertising.
Last week, after swinging by Rebel 8 clothing's HQ in San Francisco, we swung by the HQ of Strange Bird Distribution distributors of Low Card, Think Skateboards, Hubba Wheels, etc...
Stopped through Rebel 8 clothing HQ last week to see what their up to. We've known Joshy D. 10 plus years back when he was doing the SF graffiti site, HiFiArt.com in the early days of the internet when Fecal Face was just getting its start. Nice to see Mike Giant, whose designs adjorn many of Rebel 8's clothing, and Josh doing so well.
