The King and I

Made it to Graceland. Home of the king.




I have never been a big Elvis fan but Heather is. It was a slow day and we had the house to ourselves.



The home was much smaller than what you would imagine, almost quaint compared to modern rock star "cribs".



The house was a time capsule of kitch. I wouldn't mind a TV room like this.


Well that's me sitting on top of Elvis' corpse. I feel a bit guilty that I made it to his grave before Houdini.

My Smallest Fan

She comes to the sideshow every year. Her mother told me she picked up the drill and started quoting my act. "I'm at work!" is what she was joking in this photo.



I look forward to seeing her again next summer.

Let Them Eat Cake

So set your Tivo friends and fam. It's that time again to catch yours truly on the boob tube. A few months ago a reality show came through the sideshow. They brought us a themed cake with all the performers banners on it. I never know how much or how little they will use of our footage but its worth checking out.

So check out the show. Its called Cake Boss and on TLC. The air date is Nov. 30th 9pm EST.

...like I need a hole in my head.

My little sis came through for me again. She put my new logo on my favorite press photo.



I has this x-ray done a few years ago. At the time that 60p nail was a real pain to get in. I could feel the pressure in my teeth. I am now able to do that nail with much more ease. The prints should be available soon!

Changing Your Putter

We have been meeting some great people on the road. Some have had some feedback on our show. I recieved this cryptic note last night.



Let me translate.

Changing Your Patter
How about : This
Isn't rated so you
Don't any adults to late
To find one.
You of faint of heart
You don't have one anyway
So go vote Babist.
These women love
Just not you
These are girls you can
Cut up couse then you
Couldn't take them hom
To meat the folks
Fuck 'em if they a joke
Joke 'em if they can't take a Fuck.

I think that I may just use this for Heathers intro tomorrow as a bit of dada poetry.

Dollywood

I remember the first time I ever heard about Dollywood. I found t
he idea of a Dolly Parton amusement park, well amusing.





It ended up being a blast. After five days of sprinting from show to show we needed a break.





The roller coasters were great. Here we are on the Thunder Head. Wooded coasters are always a thrill. They make you feel like you are going to die at any moment. Good times.







The museum was a time capsule. Walking through the past of a entertainment legend is such fun. If you ever make it out there I recommend taking a few burlesque performers with you.

A Cure For All Your Woes

We are on our way to West Virginia today. I had a bit of time to put my Moustache Wax together.



I hand make it at home on my stove. It smells sweet from all the beeswax in it. Kathleen put the logo together for me. It is good to have creative sisters.


The wax is already selling well. Soon my influance will be everywhere!
