BUNNIES GALORE! Just back from the MILLION WOMEN March--it was awesome! Me and a MILLION women (my plan is working!). Naw, they just blew everything away (like the Bush Regime--I know I'm dreamin, but...SO MANY GREAT WOMEN CAN'T BE WRONG!) --the biggest March EVER in DC--for CHOICE. For WOMEN's LIVES! Debb designed a tough T-Shirt just for the occasion (see photo): the symbol for the medical profession (a cadeusus) turned into a pair of snakes squeezing a woman who's being crucified by the Bush regime's churchandstate mixed-up, bass-ackwards constriction of women's health services. Here's Debb and "Glitter Shorty" (who personalized the T's, applying rainbow glitter to the snakes and generally dousing everybody she liked with LIBERAL doses of the stuff), modeling their creation (don't worry, our own glittery Boom Boom was there, she's just shy). Go team! You go, Shorty! (she's 7, going on 21) If you want a T, we still have a very few, only large (but they're cut small). I'm so inspired, I'm gonna work glitter into everything from now on... OH! a head's up: me and Shepard Fairey and Mear-one and Post Gen are doing a launch partay at the Avalon (where the Palace used to be) in Hollywood on May 27th (that's a Thursday night--postering to follow right after da partay) for our trio of anti-Bush posters. Ozomatli is headlining, Z-trip is deejay!, Medusa and Feline Science will be in the house, Jerry Quickley (the GREAT slam poet) is the house--just save the date, OK? It'll be a blast. More updates later on that one (We'll invite Glitter Shorty, but she's very busy in DC (mixin' up the glitterati): getting ready for the "End of the Bush Regime Party" next January!).
