Orgasmatron Joe Petagno

The heavy metal art of Joe Petagno. Feral House books 2004


As I pray to a loving god above…. An artist named Joe Petagno illustrates the darkness of below. His art reeks of horned beasts battle and sacrifice. Blood fire and lightning coat the sky as decapitation is inevitable and the fanged jaws sink deep into the meat. This book takes you on a journey through a generous portion of this artists heavy metal work, but one of the main reasons I ordered this book is Joe is responsible for painting some of one of the greatest rock-n-roll images…. The Motorhead skull. Yes that skull that every male teen mental head wants tattooed on their body. This book is a must for any metal head/ horror book collection. Hunt it down and own it. I will still continue to pray to a loving god and hopefully Mr Petagnos world will remain on paper and canvas….. and your heart will remain safe in your chest cavity.

Ode to Willow May 14 2008 The Victoria Police where taken to court for wrongfully handling a DRUNK and unruly 15 year old girl named Willow. The girl was rewarded 60000 dollars! Holy crap! 18 years ago the police handled my little brother who was drunk and unruly. He had a knife and the police shot him dead. Thank GOD, Willow didn’t have a knife eh! Ohhh wait they now use tazers and pepper sprays to subdue out of control drunk people. By the way there was no 60000 dollar settlement in my little brothers case. I understand some cops are big JOCKS that want to be part of the toughest gang in town… The police force. Not a job for the weak. But it boils down to this fuckin booze that the government sells… it makes some people drunk and unruly! Or it boils down to maybe Willow shouldn’t drink? I heard Willow on the radio say she didn’t do it for the money. I wonder if she will donate the money to a good cause like a crisis center for women or a youth center for troubled kids??? Probably not but I wonder if she will party tonight! If we where all good to each other we wouldn’t need the damb COPS.

I just wanted to say not all cops are in your face bullys. I have had to deal with a #1 officer in regards to issues with my family.... and the one evening i stood in my yard discussing an issue (or one of many issues) regaurding my son, the officer was #1. Although The young jock looking cop that he had with him stood there with his arms crossed with that expressionless stare.... but you know what.... I did enough blabbin and that stone cop did crack a smile and a laugh. I even think he licked his lips and winked at me!!! It must have been all my tattoos and my FTW t-shirt!!trevor corey My little brother was shot in Edmonton. The cop who shot him aparently has never been the same. I forgive him.Seriously I can't ever imagine beeing a cop. A job where everyone hates you untill they need you. I think they wouldn't have to drive people face first into the ground if everyone would just stay calm. But hey they do have a career presentation on May 22 at 6:00 @ 2881 Nanaimo st in Victoria... maybe beazlbub would like to try to make the difference. BUT WHAT ABOUT WILLOW!!!! I do realize this kinda treatment is tragic on a 15 year old girl and i hope she can live in peace and happieness... but will she do anything positive with all that money? again I say Not all cops are bad and i on the other side of the coin NOT ALL PEOPLE WHO DRINK GET UNRULEY DRUNK!have a good day....

Noah Levine Meditate And Destroy

...... well, it was a noisey punk rock movie. Noah Levine was your typical generic punk guy walking the streets all tattooed, driving a 64 chevy then a harley..... LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME.the audience was a mix of nice people with thier spouses. and i bet most where not expecting and hour of the graphic SELF DESTRUCTION that this character put himself through. prison, suicide attempts, punk, and ohh yes boozin and drugs. BOOZIN and DRUGS that make it so easy to quench the stupid pain that some of us hold inside our minds. "some of us" ....... I know alot of you folks have no problem with life and everyday is a happy day. a happy day as you watch the news or go down to the skatepark and watch the gangsters wheel and deal thier drugs then beat someone down. or a group of homeless crusty punks make a huge mess of broken beer bottles. garbage and graphitti.happy folks... you know the type. sorry ..... back to the movie. Noah of coarse never found Buddahism at an early age but the seed was planted.... HIS DAD HAD ALREADY MADE THE SAME MISTAKES in the sixties and that was the way he survived it. So one day on a prison phone Noah's dad made him meditate. Passed it on to his son. And it worked for this doode. so he wrote a book and got some more tatttoos and then they made a movie about it. but thats not all Noah did.... he started shareing his expierences with others. helping others. talking in the youth prisons and more. got out of his head and ..... shared his story.... and he found peace.BAD RELIGION.... so what is it? I'm sure alot of punks won't give this movie a moments notice because we have been programed that any kind of spiritual thing is religion.... and just look at the news and all this religious shit! spiritual and religion are different. but don't try to figure it out because thats when it gets complicated. we the humans!the movie never really dug into the Buddahism thing but it did dig into the troubled human thing. I think if it helps someone survive all the stupid shit in thier head then "Thats what this movie is about" It had some good messages in it. Forgivess, peacefulness, Love.... WOW, who wants that?I think i would rather head on down to a "Lesbien Fist Magnet" show and get fucked up! YEAH.

Love -ricky
