David Bowie - Chubby Little Loser










I had just finished watching the Bowie doco Cracked Actor when i came across this gem on You Tube from the Ricky Gervais show 'Extras' (click the image). It is a hell of a juxtaposition from the coked out skeleton of the 70's. In true chameleon form, Bowie is also starring in a new movie as Nikola Tesla - where he dons a moustache that oddly harks back more to Gervais in THe Office than the sublimely divine creature he actually is.
I still love ya Dave.

Isn't that just the best?

And I saw your link to your Bowie Matroyska dolls a little while ago - they are stunning. You should have a little image of them somewhere prominent!

thanks * blushes*.
I have to resize the images when i get a sec. Isn;'t the green one da bomb?
I'm tempted to jump over to wordpress btw , though it seems a little too technical for my head to figure. Whatcha reckon?

Ah, wordpress is easy and beautiful. You can do a test free one from wordpress.com to see how easy it is to use.

The only probs with wordpress.com is that you can't do much modifying of the templates, which is too much fun to miss out on, or use lots of plugins, which are tops - and you could set up really handy categories, and image alleries, etc. You can either get a blogdaddy or pay for a provider that has one touch wordpress install (eg Dreamhost) and it won't cost you much.
