Gimme my Munny, Nov. 12th, 2009


Kid Robot launched its new do-it-yourself toy line, Munnyworld, with a custom, designer toy exhibition at Eloquent Delinquents Gallery.

The artists were great, friendly, lots of toy signing.  At some point, I got spritzed with Corona, New Year's Eve style by a pair of San Tropez vacationites who were bar hopping when suddenly, a tight gallery space with exposed, limited edition artwork obstructed their path.  I brushed off some foam, along with the gentleman standing next to me, also sprayed.  I'm pretty sure we made peace.  You know,  "desole," it was just "pour s'amuser," "passer un bon moment."  Gallery?  What gallery? Art shmart.  Just a little beer.  No hard feelings, but be forewarned, I believe security is heavily armed over at Larry Gagosian.  Continuer a maintenir la paix!

Tony: Il Miglior Fabbro

Tony Beno Holden:  Chef, Blackbird Cafe, Brooklyn, New York

I see Tony just about every day at Blackbird where I get my coffee.  Tony and I once debated the popularity of a certain beet dressing on a hamburger.  Was it too experimental?  Did people want a plain old burger?  We mulled over the issue for a few minutes.  I don't think we ever concluded anything and promptly moved onto a conversation about Italian political corruption.

What do beet dressing and Italian politics have in common?  Nothing.  They're just the kinds of things Tony and I talk about and of course, we reminisce about some of Italy's finer points.

Ciao Tony!

Kinemacolor

"She's letting me stay here while she's working on a movie that's being made in Canada. But I guess you already know that. Well, I couldn't afford a place like this in a million years... unless, of course, I'm discovered and become a movie star. Of course, I'd rather be known as a great actress than a movie star. But, you know, sometimes people end up being both. So that is, I guess you'd say, sort of why I came here.
[pause]
I'm sorry. I'm just so excited to be here. I mean I just came here from Deep River, Ontario, and now I'm in this dream place. Well, you can imagine how I feel."
