Biography
Recipe for Katy Gunn: Pour equal parts of the following into large bowl: Ella Fitzgerald, Bettie Paige, Wonder Woman, Hip-Hop, pure joy, Brain-Dance, unrequited love, sinful debauchery, Idealism to a fault, and (quite a bit of) sarcasm.
Cook for any length of time to achieve varying results. All promise to be rich rich rich.
Katy Gunn - a DIYer with a vengeance, wrote and produced her solo EP - well equipped with rich vocal harmonies, soulful grooves and an intimate songwriter's sensibility. Sarcastically witty "exquisite pop" as quoted by her CD Baby review, Katy Gunn's music is all at once dark and blissful, daring and eclectic while maintaining accessibility as she always finds a way to lay down a hook with particular sophistication. To top it off, her voice is one you won't be forgetting anytime soon.
From the age of two, Katy routinely stole her brother's violin and practiced secretly in the broom closet. The path to a musical life seemed inevitable from that point on. Dropping out of high school to study classical violin at the Oberlin Conservatory, she performed at home and abroad as soloist and concert master, until eventually moving beyond the staid classical world to pursue her own musical language. Katy traveled restlessly between San Francisco, West Hollywood, Chicago, New York, Spain and Brazil before eventually settling in Williamsburg (Brooklyn), where she currently resides.
Nothing like your typical rock band, come to a show and you will find a seven piece group with three part vocal harmony, two violins (katy will dazzle you as she sings and plays the violin - both at the same time) and a complete rhythm section sure to please. Her self-released EP is a willing teaser for the upcoming album, "Beautiful Things," yet another DIY accomplishment to be released in the fall of 2010.

OH JOY!!! THE SHRINE CIRCUS IS IN TOWN!!!! (read that with a tone of sarcasm)
I have tried really really hard not to come off as too preachy on here, I don't particularly like people telling me what I shoud and should not do. I get annoyed when people try and tell me I shouldn't eat something because it's not healthy or that I'm parenting my child wrong because I didn't breast feed until he was 10 (sarcasm again) BUT sometimes I just can't hold my tongue/fingers.
Rick had been walking the dogs earlier behind the community complex and told me the circus was setting up and the elephants were outside. Of course I had to grab my camera and go have a look. Now, I don't usually spend my days worrying about the welfare of animals, I'm aware and do what I can to help, but I'm not obsessed about it, that is until I see and hear abuse with my own eyes and ears, then it's difficult for me to remain sane.
I watched and listened to this guy for maybe 5 minutes as he got the elephants ready for the show. The entire time he was yelling at them to "move up", "get down" "move back" all while hitting them with that stick thing they use to control them. I will admit I haven't the foggiest idea how to control an elephant, but in my mind, what he was doing was abusive - heck, just having these animals out in a parking lot and being forced to perform is abuse in my mind. They should be in their homeland on a savanna, where they belong. FREE!
The handler looked over at me a couple times as I was watching, I waved and he nodded, then he and his associate took the elephants inside. Hmmm....wonder why?
Years ago, when the Shriners would call trying to sell tickets I would tell them to shove it where the sun don't shine, but had a change of heart when David was little and I cracked and took him. I had read that the circus was regulated by the Humane Society and figured if they said the animals were treated well, who was I to say there weren't? All the animals were treated OK during the show but I had visions of the elephants getting loose and going on a rampage through the crowd. I was shocked that at the end of the show they were giving rides and people were putting their little kids on top of these wild animals.
Over the years I forgot about the circus and never paid much attention to it when it came to town, but seeing those elephants today (not to mention all the dogs tied out on short ropes and horses boxed up in small stalls) made me cry. I will never, ever support the circus again, and I highly suggest you don't either. I guess that makes me a hypocrite of sorts, asking others not to do something that I did, but I like to think of myself as a hypocrite who has seen the light.
I wish I could have gotten closer to get a better pic, but the guy there in the photo, the elephant handler, yeah, he actually scared me more than the elephants did.
I did not have any music playing when I said this.
Me: "Pause the music."
Siri: "Er... you're not listening to anything."
Dana Delany and Director Brooks Branch stopped by The Bob Rivers Show to promote the movie "Multiple Sarcasms."
"hooray, I love it when stuff like this happens!"
Sarcasm.
My shelf in my closet broke off the wall today. So, all my hanging clothes are elsewhere; boxes and shoes and hard drives are strewn on the floor.
Look how organized I am!

Boston is small, tight, cramped and narrow. Parking anywhere is quite the chore, especially in our tiny parking lot. I left work late one night to find this on my car. Earlier, it took me 5-10 solid minutes of maneuvering to finagle my way into this spot, only to be smoted (see diagram below). I wanted to respond with "Hey fat-ass, how about through the passenger side? It's a pretty simple move" but I had no business cards and I am a coward.
This exemplifies Boston perfectly for me... the sarcasm, the smug attitude. Priceless.
Sarcasm & irony are often used as methods of communication... to 'get the point across,' as is sometimes said.
In this scenario, the classical painting of the crucified Christ, juxtaposed with the wording, is employed to emphasize that the Prince of Peace said (as recorded in Matthew's Gospel, chapter 26, verse 52) that "Those who use the sword will die by the sword." (NLT)
Regarding the tragedy of the Sandy Hook Elementary school massacre, and the weapon(s) used in that mass murder, it has been preached from the Christian pulpit that {referring to the Christ}, "He did not ask them to give up their weapons."
Weapons are classified as 1.) Offensive, or; 2.) Defensive. Weapons may be used for either purpose/reason. The greatest problem with weapons are that those so inclined may turn a weapon designed for defense into an offensive weapon.
Weapons are designed to harm. Good, bad, or indifferent, they are designed to kill. Somehow, that seems to be antithetical to the Prince of Peace.

A classical painting - the center of a triptych - based upon a depiction of of Christ's crucifixion by Joos van Cleve
Joos van Cleve (also known as Joos van der Beke) was a Netherlandish painter active in Antwerp by 1507 until 1540, and was born around 1485 and died in between 1540 and 1541. He is most widely known for combining traditional Netherlandish painting techniques with influences of more contemporary Renaissance paining styles.
One of his more renown paintings entitled "The Crucifixion with Saints and a Donor," circa 1520, is thought to have been doe with a collaborator, and is oil on wood, dimensioned 24” inches wide by 30” inches high.
The Crucifixion with Saints and a Donor, ca. 1520
Shaped top: central panel, painted surface 38 3/4 x 29 1/4 in. (98.4 x 74.3 cm); each wing, painted surface 39 3/4 x 12 7/8 in. (101 x 32.7 cm)
Bequest of George Blumenthal, 1941 (41.190.20a–c)
On view: Gallery 626 Last Updated November 30, 2012
In the well-preserved, brilliantly detailed triptych, the talents of a landscape specialist—a follower of Patinir—have been combined with those of the figurative painter Joos van Cleve. Perhaps commissioned by an Italian patron, the work has a Genoese provenance, and the two saints in the right-hand panel—Anthony of Padua and Nicholas of Tolentino—were popular in southern Europe. The frame is original but regilt.
Quella completa mancanza di sarcasmo nella sua voce mi colpì. Ciò che a me sembrava poco più di un reality era la sua unica possibilità di trovare la felicità: non avrebbe potuto fare un secondo giro di ragazze. Be', forse sì, avrebbe potuto, ma sarebbe stato troppo imbarazzante! Era un ragazzo disperato e speranzoso al tempo stesso, pensai. Il disprezzo che qualche secondo prima provavo per lui cominciava ad affievolirsi.

Amo os dois esmaltes! O Sarcasm é um glitter bem versátil, mas até hoje só o usei com esmaltes verdes.
E o Menta dispensa apresentações! Amo verde!
yeah right, like ALABASTER(D) CUSTARD!
wait, but i'm not mushy, there's no give,
and nothing sags or wrinkles
because ...
oh, yeah, because i'm made of
STONE cold alabaster MARBLE:
captivating, compelling,
yet formidably hard, mercilessly unyielding.
i'm a total BITCH.
it's so obvious, isn't it?
everything i say, do,
everything you see,
and know of me
sneeringly self-righteous,
that's my ticket.
you still wanna look,
you still wanna touch,
but you won't
because ...
oh yeah, because you might get burned,
*you* might turn to stone,
from that hot cold enchantment,
the searing icy hot sting
of the scorpion's tail.
i'm so acerbically honest,
caustically "authentic"
yeah, the word itself
bites you in the ass.
i get you.
you can't take it.
you make me an enemy.
and you're a coward.
your loss.
Well... at the very first: It's not real, of course ;-)
There've been moments in my life when I whished I had such a gun (but a real one!), but (un?)fortunately I never had. This one was borrowed from my school (uhh, all the keywords for a killing spree!), they used it for physics teaching. Today these imitates are forbidden in Germany.
This one shoots small white bullets (about 2mm in diameter). It doesn't nessecarily hurt when you are hit from a shot, but it's not completely non dangorous.
Note. There's a special sarcasm in this picture: The text on the paper below the weapon says "Hints for successful working at the upper stage school.". Well, that's a good hint, isn't it? ;-)
i need one to solve sarcasm
i need one to solve crazy
i need one on parenting
i need one on self expression
i need one on human behavior
i need one .......
finally i said fuck it and took a rest b/c i realized i might not be able to carry or read that many books. i'm going back tomorrow.

The Daleks take over the Royal Albert Hall during the BBC's Doctor Who Proms concert held there. They even did sarcasm as well as extermination. Taken in South Kensington, London, England on July 14, 2013.

"Blatant Sarcasm Police? Well, they won't have much to do around here..." -KateHost
Sorry, the initial description didn't provide apt credit.
Why is it that cat owners seem to despise dog owners? Dog owners then despise cat owners as lesser beings. The debate will never end. In one unlucky conversation with a young lady. I pointed out some science behind why dogs, by all accounts, are smarter in a measurable way than cats. She clearly was a dog lover. She felt that her training and her care lead to the dog being soooooooooo smart. Sorry hun, evolution and brain capacity will do more than your want of the dog to be smart. I compared the relative brain capacity to that of a toddler. The only thing worse than a dog / cat debate is a fired up single parent “independent woman” as they like to be called. And she exploded faster than a republican hearing somebody say the word equality.
I think I ended the brief conversation with something about how no organism on the planet is independent. We need our cells to function, our cells rely on energy from food, water, the sun, oxygen. And not to mention all the cycles of Earth, the food web, the food chain. Not to mention single parents get all kinds of freebies. Nothing in the world is independent, alive or otherwise.
Well one blocked person later I moved on. This was however long before I made this drawing around the 10th grade. I’m gonna say it. I like cats more. If the dog is mid-to small than dogs are nice. But big dogs, I don’t know. Big dogs need a yard to run in. They don’t need a cramped 1.5 bedroom apartment where they do nothing but bark and wake the neighbors up. What kind of quality life are they living in an apartment anyways. (Random hate mail here).
The idea behind the comic was that the cat may seem to have lost the battle but at any minute will pop the balloon and the dog will reap what it sows or something like that. I think I was mad at what George Bush, #2 was doing to the country at the time but I can’t remember what I was thinking in my highschool days. The drawing was only outlined in color so for this post I very quickly filled it in on the computer.
So are you a cat or dog person? And if you own a ferret, don’t even say anything!
Long live CATS!!!!
