"With this year's release of the stunning and horrifying documentary, The Cove new light has been shed on the tradition of slaughtering dolphins once a year in the National Park at Taiji, Wakayama in Japan. "South Park"'s creators, never ones to shy away from controversy, decided to take on the practice last night in an episode called "Whale Whores." In the video below we see Stan and his family swimming with dolphins at the Denver Aquarium until a huge number of Japanese men coming to kill the animals."

Rex Ray to Rob Pongi: "FU"

A couple weeks ago, as usual, I was "clowning around" inside David Bowie's site: Bowienet and somehow I inspired the world-renowned fine artist and graphic designer Rex Ray to create this:

rex ray pongi
