The kapok is often associated with the supernatural. In Africa, the kapok is also considered sacred. It is said that sleeping on pillows made of kapok cotton will bring good luck, purify and empower your material and spiritual energy and bring good dreams and saintly vibrations. Slaves brought to the Caribbean often slept on mattresses and pillows stuffed with kapok. Interestingly enough, this custom was often shunned by white planters and plantation overseers who believed that sleeping on kapok pillows brought about nightmares

These (formerly inflatable) stuffed sushi are part of my end of year work. They are made with heat welded polyethylene plastic (shower curtains, haha), and padded with polyester filling. I squished these works into my bag to take to Japan, but never ended up photographing them as planned. The ebi/prawn on rice is a little over 20cm long, and the square sushi is about 15cm on each side.

Travis and I were in an antique mall in Lancaster, OH a few days ago and found this wooden crate of photography stuff for $35. Most of it was junk, but there were a bunch of negatives in it, so I bought it anyway.
Most of the stuff we pitched, but I kept all of the negatives, film boxes (there were old film boxes filled with tiny fossils in them!), and film tins. Some of the negatives were rolls of film, but most were in carefully cut strips of four frames, housed in individual sleeves. There were a few cut frames of Kodachrome film in one of the film boxes as well (double exposures and ends of the roll).
There were two film boxes that had been sent into Kodak for development. One was postmarked Nov. 5, 1948, and the other was postmarked Mar. 20, 1944. The To: address for both boxes was Robert E. Johnson Jr., 3411 Virginia Ave., Cleveland 9, OH. The From: adress on the box sent in 1944 was this: Pvt. Robert E. Johnson 35051549, 332 2nd. S.U. A.S.T.U., Randolph Macon College, Ashland, Virginia. So, if anyone knows this guy, let him know I have his negatives. :)
This first set of photos that I'm uploading were all in the same grouping of negatives. Looks like a Boy Scout trip, maybe? Lots of tomfoolery on a frozen river.
Unloading stuff to go to China! Shoot me a message if you're interested, have questions, or want to make an offer.

Stuffed jalapeños part II. Wrapping them with bacon like the last time was a pain in the ashtabula. So, I browned some sausage with extra spices, cooled it down, and then folded it in with cream cheese and Mexican three cheese blend.
“Bad Ass” Jersey Shore Fightin’ Texas Aggie Ring chopped the tops off of many jalapeños. Then, using his trusty jalapeño knife, he gutted the ribs and seeds insides of them like they gut a pig before a BBQ. Believe me, I’ve been there.
Aggie Ring “stuffed the Hell” of the little jalapeños with the cheese/sausage mixture. He then smoked them over alder wood @ 250 degrees for about an hour. Just long enough to brown the top of the cheese and soften the jalapeños. But, not so much as there wasn’t still a bit of a crunch when you bit into them.
They were most excellent.
