...but a living exhibition of the degenerate soul."
If the average boo-hoo haunted house just doesn't cut it for you, if you truly need something depraved, then the Institute of Mental Decay, sponsored by the Los Angeles Cacophony Society looks to be severely disturbing. They're still looking for participants, so if you have any "medical fetishes, animal costumes, castration fantasies or hospital equipment", they neeeeed YOU. They're also looking for anyone "born with a tail" and "as many monkeys as we can find"....
Happy Haunting! Bwahahahahaha........
For all the single ladies out there... turns out California is the right place to be to meet men, since men outnumber women here in SoCal over any other place. It's like I always say... the odds are good but the goods are odd!
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 21 ó Go West young woman, especially if youíre single and looking for love. And if youíre serious about seeking a male mate, go to Orange County or Silicon Valley ó two areas with cities where, in an unusual twist, single men outnumber single women."
Read the full story.
Another excerpt:
"The other four California cities were immigrant magnets ó Santa Ana, Salinas, Oxnard and Costa Mesa ó which naturally attract male laborers, many of them single, foreign-born Hispanics."
I just got back from the 2nd Sunday afternoon/evening of the Hacienda Brothers - featuring Dave Gonzalez of The Paladins and the SoCal famed Chris Gaffney - at the Doll Hut. The Hacienda Brothers played roarin' honky tonky and old time country music. A true delight to the ears on a Sunday afternoon.
The Hacienda Brothers will be back at the Doll Hut next Sunday the 26th of October and again on Sun. Nov. 23rd with The Paladins for a Doll Hut Benefit just before Thanksgiving.
