Wow, that was actually kinda sexy. Except for the plastic duckie part. I enjoyed that, Mark Allen. Do you still create videos? It seems like now it would be easier than ever and you live in a great city for it.
You ARE a gunge freak!!!!
This could have read as a vain exercise, but for the intensely searching look in your eyes.
Even viewed inversely, your serious commitment to the work is evident. I wish I’d been that dedicated of an arts student.
And people, the duckie?
C’mon, we all remember 1989, and let’s be honest - it was never much of a party until the duck showed up.
P-b-b-b-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-f-f-f-f-t!
Sincerely,
Mr. Nose
