Ziggy played guitar. He’s also been known to toke on that sweet ganja. And he got busted by the fuzz in 1979. Here is photographic proof. This vintage photograph was taken at the exact moment when undercover cops in Rochester, NY slapped the cuffs on David Bowie and Iggy Pop. Apparently it was “someone else” who was smoking pot in Bowie’s hotel room in 1976. Yeah sure. Ground control to Major Tom, I ain’t buying it.

The worst part of the whole thing had to be Iggy Pop on the way to the police station singing The Passenger over and over again while Bowie was biting and kicking him to get him to shut up.

They had to face the cha cha cha charges!

awkward family momentHow was yer day boy? Ah, er, fine dad. Just fine. Good, good. Your mother insists we take a photo together. I see yer still wearin’ cheerleader colors. I AM touching the boy Margaret. We’re connecting here. Hurry up with that camera woman! For God’s sake boy, close yer legs! What in the hell is wrong with you? No wonder I’m chain smoking. I haven’t even had my pre-dinner whiskey yet. Can we get on with this? Christ that kid is odd. Get yer hand off my leg. That’s it, I’m done! I’m off to the bar. Don’t wait up.

Antique Photo Of Rare Japanese Frog Baby

frog babyHoly Frog F**k! Some strange stuff goes down on this planet. This $400. 1900-1910 medical documentation cabinet photograph shows an anencephalic baby, which is basically a baby born without a brain. So, why is a blogger without a brain sharing this with you? Because education is important fool. Plus, I’m really tripped out by how much this baby looks like an X-Man mutant. Look out Professor X, it’s about to flick it’s tongue. Time for a psychic attack. Too late, I licked it’s skin and am tripping balls. Call in the Wolverine!

In all serious, at one time, babies born with this defect were called “frog babies” and placed into jars as sideshow attractions. It’s weird as hell.

Looks Disappointed: Vintage Christmas Photo Of Asian Woman With Record Album

asian woman christmasThis vintage photo of an Asian woman is creepy mostly because the decor of the era was so bad. It doesn’t help that she looks downright pissed off/sad about the record she just opened. It must have been ABBA’s greatest hits. Meanwhile, that guy to the left is totally stoked, because he knows he got some Atari 2600 games. Missile Command forever! Later they will live a mirror universe scene from “A Christmas Story”. After the Bumpus’ dogs eat their turkey they will go to an American restaurant and sing Christmas songs. Fa-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra Ra-ra-ra-ra. Damn Bumpuses!
