and now a word from David Bowie

It’s easy to get caught up in the hype. It changes you. So I was on the set of the music video ‘Ashes To Ashes’, do you know the one?

So we’re on the beach shooting this scene with a giant bulldozer. The camera was on a very long lens.

In this video I’m dressed from head to toe in a clown suit. Why not?

I hear playback and the music starts.

So off I go, I start singing and walking, but as soon as I do this old geezer with an old dog walk right between me and the camera.

Well, knowing this is gonna take a while I walked past the old guy and sat next to camera in my full costume waiting for him to pass.

As he is walking by camera the director said, Excuse me mister, do you know who this is? The old guy looks at me from bottom to top and looks back to the director and said…

‘Of course I do! It’s some cunt in a clown suit.’

That was a huge moment for me, It put me back in my place and made me realise, yes, I’m just a cunt in a clown suit. I think about that old guy all the time.

was this a good weekend?

any weekend where i remained above ground is a good one.

amber and i went out to temple city yesterday, then today over to santa monica.

ive been looking for baseball card sleeves for my three ring binders.

shes been so bored around the house that shes been tidying up every nook and cranny.

ive kept her off my trail pretty well, but my many mansions may have firepoof floors

but they dont have any true space for my small baseball card collection

so i have been putting them in binders like mitt romney.

weirdly theres an out of control baseball card shortage at target, walmart, walgreens and CVS.

i talked to the store manager of this huge walgreens in monrovia who loves baseball cards

and he gave me the address of a small baseball card shop in altadena

i said, your store is so gigantic why dont you have a huge row of cards here and supplies like what im looking for.

he said, the kids would steal.

i said, put them in the glass cases that my shampoo is in at Vons

he said DONT YOU THINK I WANT THAT TOO

he had alligator shoes on.

we talked baltimore orioles baseball for a little while.

then he got depressed.

then amber said can you just please order these online?

and i said yes dear.
