I don't feel owned by you.










When Oh When Will This Movie Be Made??



So I hear there is to be a Weetzie Bat movie.
Weetzie is the heroine of the Weetzie Bat book series by my (favorite, favorite, favorite) author Francesca Lia Block. I am so beyond ready for this movie to be made. It's  been in the works forever it seems.
So, to tide me over until that golden day arrives...
Kimberley Gordon of www.ilovewildfox.com has perfectly executed a Weetzie Bat photo shoot
 I'm almost a year late reporting on this shoot, but I'm not sorry.
 I am soooooo excited to share it with you. 
This shoot is styled exactly as I've always pictured Weetzie in her summer haze, jacaranda scented Shangri-LA. Well done Kim.
Well done. 
Now if only I could magically insert myself in to this world...





PLUS bonus awesomeness...




Twins.


This story is amazing. 
These twin brothers Julien and Adrien Reiser were born within seconds of each other, served side by side for 62 years as Friars in the Roman Catholic church and just last week, died within hours on one another on the same day at age 92. 






I've always been preternaturally fascinated by genetics. My Father instilled in my brother and I a deep seeded interest in genealogy. Twins are common on both sides of my family tree. My Mom has twin sisters, my Dad has twin brothers and his Grandmother was a twin herself. I'm not sure if twins are whats in store for me someday but they are truly fascinating. I've always been intrigued by the stories of twin ESP. Twins that can feel each other's physical pain or emotional distress, I mean how interesting is that?!

Unfortunately because of the mystery and fascination surrounding twins they have been the subjects throughout history of horrible experiments and cruelty in the medical field. I recently came across the story of a town called Candido Godoi in Brazil.
Candido Godoi has long been suspected as the hiding place of infamous Nazi doctor, "Angel of Death" Josef Mengele. Soon after he began practicing and providing prenatatl care to the women in the community the rate of twins sky rocketed. One in five births in the town is now a set of twins, many of them having blonde hair and blue eyes.
Its clear to any informed onlooker that the doctor continued his Aryan genetics experiments after fleeing Nazi Germany following WW2. Here are some pictures of the residents of Candido Godoi.
Here is more on this bizarre story.
