Allegory Weekly Double Issue About to Drop

Kiddies, get ready!
Our first double-issue is in the works and about to drop any minute now. With the July 4th weekend, we've decided to give you a bunch of action-packed everything to enjoy while looking up at the fireworks and what-not.

So I hope it's enjoyable. In the meantime, enjoy some of the features you may have missed the first time around.

BTW, D.C. was the berries. I ate at Urbana (the bacon-wrapped pork loin is THE SHIT), stayed in a hotel much like The Standard and did inappropriate things with my favorite musician of all time as the sun came up.

I don't give a f**k about so-and-so's jump shot, so-and-so's Oscar or so-and-so's fashion line. WRITERS HAVE THE HOTTEST LIVES--EVER! So thanks to you, fella. You know who you are.

Taking Chances

I'm heading over to Barack's house for a weekend getaway--LOL! I soooooooooooo wanted to write that. Actually, I'll be in the nation's capital; I'm all packed up and ready to go.

I super hate flying, but I LOVE getting out of town, dude.

So, it's the morning after all the craziness with Michael and Farrah. Two of the most [pop] culturally significant people on this earth dead on the same day. Creepy. It's always really sad when people are trying to get their shit together and time runs out for them before they get the chance. I think that's what bums me out most about death. It always seems to come for you when you're not ready. People should be allowed to finish up their plans before kicking the bucket.

I watched Corey Feldman talking about Jackson on the Today Show this morning. He seemed so sad. I wonder how Macaulay Culkin's holding up. Apparently he and MJ were still pretty friendly. I should ask around...

Anyway, wish me bon voyage. Depending on how this trip goes, Allegory Weekly may go into reruns for this upcoming week. Sorry about that! Be warned...

Michael Jackson's Dead

Dude, that 's a real bummer. That guy could rock his ass off. I've got so much of his stuff in my iPod right now. My first concert was the Jackson Victory Tour in 1985.

Wow...we're all gettin' older people. Never thought he'd be 50 when he died. I was sure he'd be well into his 80s or 90s.

Well, sad but true, he's the third death in 2 days. Guess that old adage is true, huh?

R.I.P., bro.

Thanks for the Memories

Monday night was the Castledoor show at Spaceland. I went with my friend Marya. We caught Local Natives' set and then stood breathless with anticipation for Nate, Coury, Gabe, Brando, Liska and Joel to take the stage. And they didn't disappoint.

IT WAS THE BEST SHOW OF THEIR RESIDENCY!

Good gravy. I love this band so much I can't see straight.

Yesterday was pretty much a fond remembrance of that night. I had a permanent, goofy smile on my face all day.

Tonight, I'm going to a screening of Public Enemies with Adrian Zaw. Good kid. Check out his article. He's this week's Allegory Story.

Yo! It's About That Time!

This week's Allegory Weekly is live, bitches!

(Sorry for calling you "bitches." I just think the word sometimes gives declarations a nice sense of occasion).

Had an eventful weekend. I worked out a lot. I'm whittling away. All my fat is dropping like a new release on a Tuesday. HA!

Anyway, in Allegory this week is a great feature on Adrian Zaw. This guy will one day be studied in media and journalism classes. He's a real trailblazer and a total sweetheart. I've hung out with him before and had to really refrain from molesting him. He's so adorable.

Our film feature is on a great documentary called Under Our Skin. Trust me: this is a movie that you'll want to see. It's so outstanding and amazing and thought-provoking. It made me angry to think that people just like you and me are discriminated against because of our medical diagnoses.

The music feature is on Castledoor. This band is my latest obsession. I could listen to their song, "Hidden Treasure" all day. As a matter of fact, every time I do, I burst into tears. It's such a good song! And the band live is one of the best I've seen in a pretty long while.

We've got a fashion piece on Lola's Rags. Next payday, I'm gonna try to hook up some folks with pieces from this collection. VERY sexy. Unlike anything else going on right now.

But don't take my word for it...

Strange Things Afoot at the Circle-K

I have this gross uneasy feeling today. Don't know why. I'm actually kind of sad. Okay, well, when I first started this post, I was listening to Interpol. And now the Beastie Boys is about to go off. Tokyo Police Club just came on...LOVE my iPod.

So, Passion Pit is coming back to L.A. in October, babies. LOVE this freakin' band. If you missed the shows in L.A. last month, you are an a-hole. Seriously. But you have the chance to redeem yourself in two places: 1) you can buy a ticket for the next show(s) and 2) you can read about them here.

This forthcoming Allegory Weekly will be sick, people. Got a great music feature for you that's very near and dear to my heart. The same with the Allegory Story. It's about a boy with perhaps the most killer smile I've ever seen. Yes, I'm sorta crushing.

SHUT UP!!!

Gifts Aplenty

This week's Allegory Weekly has been posted and boy is it a scorcher.

Check out a fab article on Hollywood starlet Marya Kiselova.

We also have a great interview with awesome band, Natalie Portman's Shaved Head.

And because you've requested it, there's the blog that made Honey M. Barc an Internet celeb. If you'd like to check it out, you'll need the password: rawhoney

Enjoy, lovelies!

Ugh...my morning

Divorce is a bitch, people! I'm going through a messy one with a sleazeball who I now think only married me for money, despite the fact that I didn't have a pot to piss in when we got hitched. Or a greencard. Who knows? The point is this, I just spent the better portion of my morning stuck in a smelly courthouse where fugly, skanky people in sweatsuits stood WAY too close to me for my own personal comfort, whilst their unkempt children ran around like little maniacs.

I am NEVER getting married again.

Shameless plug: Check out Allegory Weekly. The current issue is almost a thing of the past. I wish I could say the same about my "blessed union."

In bed by 3; At work by 8

Went clubbing last night with a friend of mine. It was a crazy experience. First, let me just say that Bardot--the hot new spot in Hollywood is soooooooo effing rad. My only beef is with the DJ. Are you really trying to get me to dance to "The Lion Sleeps Tonight?" I felt like a 12-year-old at my BFF's birthday party.

That said, it was a great night. Loads of fun. I danced my ASS off. My friend got propositioned for a threesome, but I don't think she realizes that was what was happening.

LOL!

Have I Got a Surprise for You

This week's issue of Allegory Weekly is live--awwwwww yeah!!!

In it, we have new releases on our music page. Check out our recs and pick 'em if you so desire

We've got an excellent feature on a super cool fashion house that does couture for all the broke bitches of the world.

And...we've got a cool feature on a dope Improv troupe who are crazy reminiscent of "The State." Come and get it!

More good stuff for ya

The sweetest documentary is opening this week. It's called Throw Down Your Heart. You should check it out.

I caught some fantastic bands at Spaceland last night. Man oh man!! You gotta love local music!

Another Andy Kaufman?

I don't know if Sacha Baron Cohen's ode to teabagging on last nights MTV Movie Awards was staged like everybody said, but I'm just glad that someone gave that ridiculous little boy, Marshall Mathers, a taste of his own medicine.

I'm sure somewhere, Christina Aguilera is toasting a Borat movie poster while knocking back celebratory mimosas.
