Personality Crisis - New York Dolls

Good morning and happy Sunday.

Happy Sunday 70s. Got a story about David Johansen of the New York Dolls. This goes back almost exactly, to the day, 17 years. Just after my oldest son was born we took him out for the first time. I had to pick up new glasses. We lived in Staten Island ,NY at the time. So we go to Lens Crafters by the mall. My wife and son waited in the car while I went in. So I'm sitting there, no glasses on while they are adjusting and doing whatever it is they do when I hear a voice that made my head turn. I couldn't really see other then a blurry man across the room, but the voice! So I actually leave the store and go out to the car to ask my wife is that is David Johansen. She said, "Who?". Buster Poindexter, she said, "Who?" The cab driver from Scrooged, "Oh... maybe". So I go back inside and before I get my glasses, he was gone. Not a great story, I know, but... So after I get my glasses we decide to go to Bed Bath And Beyond. Who should follow us in but Mr. David Johansen. We ended up shopping with David Johansen and his lady friend. It was so much fun, everything he saw was the most amazing thing he'd ever seen. He freaked out over towels! I don't think he ever really shopped before, seriously. So that's my David Johansen story.

You haven't lived until you've run into David Johansson in Bed Bath And Beyond. Yeah, I have stories... very true stories.

Was encouraged by Tulli to post some of my original work here today for portfolio day. Besides GG20s, I'm also developing a cyberpunk story about a rookie cyborg boxer in an alternate 2001 Los Angeles in the style of late-90s anime.

I also have a side project, developing a video game idea on exploring the Pacific ocean and speculative marine sciences.

Also some posters I've done, including a piece I made for The Lovers.
