Welcome to The World of Kitten Painting
Now there was me thinking this would be a "how to' guide on decorating my cat Blanche...but no another hidden gem...check it out, if you are into indie music and such like Welcome to The World of Kitten Painting. On another note caught the last few minutes of a documentary about the Dandy Warhols and the BRMC which looked pretty crazy, hope it comes on again, because it looked really interesting....enough for now back later....maybe

The catalogue of UK Entrances to Hell
Found this site....which is pretty funny...The catalogue of UK Entrances to Hell...I could believe that some of those are entrances to hell. Someone should start a US version, because I swear there are one or two entrances in my neighbourhood (maybe in my basement). On a related note I was watching the movie 'Stigmata' which supposedly is set in Pittsburgh (it is not filmed here and none of the locations look anything like Pittsburgh, plus for some reason it rains all the time)...but apart from that it is an excellent movie...
