big brother archive – rick kosick v. socrates
There’s a certain irony in the fact that Rick Kosick is shown arguing in this clip with a fellow named Socrates when there’s nothing remotely philosophical about the debate. Not even the idiot in the background who attempts to put a half-ass Rodney King kabosh on the drama. Kosick is obviously the Republican photographer in this scenario, that much is obvious, but the guy holding the Democratic video camera is Socrates and I can’t tell you how happy we all were that he had the presence of mind to not turn off the camera during this exchange that went down in the midst of the Big Brother East Coast road trip in September 1995. We were skating on the steps of the Capitol Building in Washington DC (which, incidentally, proved a lot more easy to do than I ever thought it would be), and Billy Pepper, the one and only pro skateboarder who accompanied us on this road trip, was attempting to backside 180 a double-set of stairs. We might have even been under the delusion at the time it would make a possible cover shot for issue # 19, what with the definitively East Coast scenic formation looming in the background, yet all the while completely ignoring the fact it was a total butt-shot. Then again, 85-percent of us were either drunk or hungover at the time so logic wasn’t exactly a prevailing wind in the situation. Just another absurd day on Capitol Hill for the history books.

photos of the day – shanna
I snapped this photo of Ms. Shanna Zablow sitting in her “big girl” seat at Dickhouse Entertainment. It kind of reminds me of Jack and the Beanstalk when the little boy climbed up in the giant’s chair. His little feet couldn’t touch the ground either. I took this one night in the office when Shanna ordered a bunch of beer and we all watched the World Series. Notice her Yankees cap barely peeking over the computer and the sweet Sarah Green pictures behind her on the wall.
