:: RIP Sparks ::
If you had asked many of us at Fecal Face to stick out our tongues over the last 4 summers or so, chances are they would have been orange. Chances are, we probably wouldn't even have remembered you talking with us either. It may seem silly to lament the passing of an alcoholic energy drink, but you have to remember that half the photos on this site would not have been possible without it (remember this?). Maybe we're wrong in saying that, but we'll really never know. Anyways, Rest In Peace Sparks. it was nice knowing you.

:: Earthquake Nerd Time ::
Man, last night I realized how unprepared my house is when the big earthquake hits. The electricity went out for like an hour and all we had was one candle and a little shitty pencil sized flashlight. Got me thinking about how, if it were the big one, it'd be nice to have more flashlights, batteries, food, water, a radio, and all that jazz... Oh and also need to figure out a meeting spot for family members, 'cause, what if you're not in the same place when it goes down?... And remember, they say txt messages work better than trying to make a call on your cell due to high possibility they'll go out first... 72 HOURS.ORG <-- is a great website with lots of info... Can you imagine the whole city with no power for days?! I'm gonna have a huge mag light and my BB gun to fight off those ravenous raccoons.

It seems like every gallery in SF is hosting some sort of holiday art sale/ show this weekend. You should get out there and support the arts and give some original gifts this year. Some places you should check out would be: CREATIVITY EXPLORED'S HOLIDAY SHOW (opens Friday 6-9pm) whose gallery of work by artists with developmental disabilities offers up some really awesome unique stuff for little $$$. Plus you'd be giving back to a great organization.... JAY HOWELL'S PRINT RELEASE @FECAL FACE goes down on Friday as well which gives you a chance to score a large 20" x 24" limited edition print the evening before we add them online for sale. Complimentary wine provided by Encyclopedia Wines and Jay Howell's IPod will also be present.... POST-POSTCARD 12 @THE LAB opens Friday too with small postcard sized original works going for anywhere from $1 to $30.
