This is an experiment in live theme development.

As of this post, I've posted all post types, mostly about Saul Bass. We've got picture, quote, text, and audio posts done. Now it's time for some style wrangling with custom css. I'll work on the type and basic colors today and keep the graphics part for later. Let's see what I come up with and if I can stay at it till the end.

Hope is a variable. So, please follow my work to keep hope around.

About Pig-Ass-Hole.

Jimmy: [to Jerome] So... Who do you like?

Jimmy: [Jerome is confused by the question, so Jimmy rephrases it] Who's your favorite artist, Jerome?

Jerome: [Uncomfortable pause] Maybe, Picasso?

Jimmy: I see... Very good... Our old friend "Pig-Ass-Hole," the nasty little dwarf who went his whole life without a single original thought... I presume you're joking, right?

Bardo: [Jerome is too uncomfortable to speak, but Bardo nonchalantly chimes in] Jimmy's a Strathmore grad.

Jimmy: Just look at me now!... Just think, Jerome, some day all this could be yours. You're going places, young man. I can feel it. But you really need to take some lessons in sucking cock and licking ass. Otherwise you might find yourself rotting away in some shit-hole, postponing suicide for the slim chance that you might one day, possibly, see some glorious plague or pestilence bring horrible suffering to your hateful species.

Jimmy: [Jerome and Bardo look at each other in shocked silence, then let out uncomfortable snickers] What are you smiling about?

Jimmy: [Jerome only shrugs, an uncomfortable grin etched on his face] Laugh away, laughing boy! I will stomp on your guts till they shoot out your ass! I will bury you alive and shit on your grave!
