  • That is a stunning print.

  • @julz35 Glad you like it! Scratched up from the broken glass, but hey. Mr. Cook used transparencies. I was only lying on a small rock and the big rocks on the left were not there. I remember my skin was so dry, the makeup lady had to start over and give me a facial. She said, what do you put on your skin? I said, um, I only have a bar of Ivory soap for the bath and washing dishes in the sink, hee hee hee!

  • I can understand why your french hubby would be disturbed at ya for showin' this BEAUTIFUL portrait of YOU, in Eve's costume,...nice lookin' tush ya got there,....you're first two hubbys and your current hubby really have GREAT TASTE in BEAUTIFUL WOMEN!!!! You're definitely the HOT GERMAN GIRL ya mentioned a coupla vids ago,...hehehe...Thumbs up good buddy!! = )

  • @qualqui I think he gets annoyed when I do anything independent and creative. He used to love it and is the third fan I married. I guess I am sitting on my groceries. What I take for granted, it's funny that so many people have thought over the years I have a nice butt which is very photogenic. Yup, I got that German blood in me and can never get enough pleasurin'! Hee hee hee hee!! xo

  • @slobomotion Yikes good buddy, i got so carried away by your beautiful tush, that i forgot to mention your apartment ghost, Sophie,....i would've been scared stiff,...a cousin of mine when he was a li'l boy(around 3 or 4 years of age)reported to my aunt seeing a tall, dark man and my granma always heard noises,...story behind my aunt's home, during the mexican revolution, it was a hideout for rebel forces,....(shivers up my spine)...freaky scary huh,...er...do ya miss sweet Sophie? = )

  • @qualqui No, she was just like a roomie or something. I moved on. I was dumb to leave voodoo candles burning. I dunno who the Man in the Hat was but it was very tall and like dark grey gelatin. Everyone in NYC had voodoo candles, it was a cheap way of getting some light and not really very smart to do.

  • Wow, that's pretty crazy about Sophie. It's nice you still held onto the possessions she had. I wonder if the ghost you saw had anything to do with a former attendant of the apartment you lived in? I liked that you kept all of your photos, it's a shame what happened to the girl in the other one.

  • @araya1 I knew she was dead and just quietly took a few of her things. I asked the landlord a few days later if I could buy the contents of the apartment but they had already thrown everything out! Too late! I had enough time to look through her photo album and stuff. Old lady died alone after an accident, very sad. Yeah, LeeAnn, I heard she ended up in the East River. Her boyfriend Richie owned an apt bldg on Avenue A in Manhattan and they did some dealing.

  • @araya1 LeeAnn was a popular, exuberant girl and very nice. Worked as a model, hooker and phone girl. I've met many people who remember her and heard she was murdered. Almost everyone from that period, I've been able to locate, and again, no one I know who remembers her has turned her up. She really must be dead. It was very dangerous being involved with drugs in NYC. Even small time.

  • "I plan to do another installment of I WAS FOR SALE soon... I think you can live without it for the moment" - speak for yourself! =p Damn good book. How do you bundle and sell BIKINI GIRL and what was that series about? -"tarotworldtour"

  • @SunShine8308 Hee hee hee! I guess I am waiting for a glamour inspired moment. BIKINI GIRL was a primordial punk zine and is still available in print and video editions. It has a fine resale value and I am surprised more people are not hacking into it. That zine still makes me laugh my ass off! I was going mental in my own home and knew how to do printing to produce it, but it is so off kilter, well, it just makes me laugh. High weirdness!!

  • @SunShine8308 BIKINI GIRL is in a lot of museum permanent collections and is considered high punk art. I felt absolutely obsessed and had to do it. It was beyond me. I still can't explain my art, especially not that! xo

  • @slobomotion Last I saw, BIKINI GIRL is all in the hands of private collectors now and so it is very hard to find descriptions of that work, beyond the letters of provenance that were written in the 90s. What do you typically sell remaining copies for or are you holding onto them?

  • @SunShine8308 I sell the print issues for ten euros and the video issues for the equivalent of 47 USD. These prices include mailing costs. I can be paid in USD or euros. Thanks for asking! They are fun and entertaining, I still get a huge laugh out of them, and am just fine with people making a profit on resale. Why not?

  • @SunShine8308 MODERN GIRLZ came before and was copied for the poison pen style of punk lettering. BIKINI GIRL was punk contiunation, most of it handed to me by punks with their blessing to use the stuff. I still get a huge laugh when I see my TV GUIDE pages. Those, I did myself, tiny bits of paper and glue and I kept laughing and blowing all the bits around! Cut up.

  • @slobomotion Those RHODA cliffhangers are laugh-worthy! Haha.

    I have acquired some chicken bones from last night's dinner, by the way.

    This video is such a huge hit!

  • @SunShine8308 Crow will like them! What is RHODA?  This is a hit?

  • @slobomotion Oh, that was a MARY TYLER MOORE spinoff.

  • @SunShine8308 Yes, for a short period, it was a number one hit in the USA. No, wait, I am thinking of PHYLLIS, another MTM spinoff. I did a lot of babysitting and saw a lotta TV! Put the kids to bed then sit and eat ice cream! xo

  • @slobomotion No, PHYLLIS was the flop and RHODA was the hit. "Phyyllllllis... it sure isn't YOU."

  • @SunShine8308 Thank you so much for the clip you forwarded me! Rhoda struck me as very funny cuz when her mother said "I'm comfortable," Rhoda muttered, "That means I'm an heiress." Married to Mr. Stingy, this still makes me laugh to think of!

  • @slobomotion That exchange actually happened on THE MARY TYLER MOORE SHOW when Rhoda's mother (Ida) came to visit - that show I did watch. Nick at Nite circa 1993.

  • @SunShine8308 Oh, okay, I think I remember. Maybe Nancy Walker played the mother? Rhoda would give her mother money and her mother would just buy Rhoda a new coat. I know the guy who did a lot of the Nick at Nite music! He was a trip!  Boris Kwaloff! I never had pay TV so missed all that.

  • @SunShine8308 I liked Phyllis better than Rhoda.

  • @999manman Personally I do as well. Introverts like the rejected Phyllis, extroverts like the mainstream Rhoda and her type of problems. =p

  • @SunShine8308 I agree! Rhoda was just too...stereotypically Jewish or something....Phyllis seemed more accessible.

  • I love the work that your husband did after Iceland. The eye reveals a lot.

  • @SunShine8308 I think he would remind me a lot of my friend Bryan.

  • @SunShine8308 He was upset I framed this and at least one other work he did.

  • @SunShine8308 We used to write and do artwork together but he is all closed off now. That milabs thing in 2000 finished us off. I warned him it would happen, the American govt would come after me for being a UFO abductee. Oh, well. It's just a marriage. Another one down the drain.

  • @SunShine8308 He's a peeper.

  • That bondage portrait at the beginning is actually quite tasteful and does not seem "subversive" to me at all!

  • @SunShine8308 Yeah, this was for the cover of a romance novel. This was typical quite straight model work for the time. I had a flimsy gown to wear and the artist would add the cleavage, ha ha! A lot of the work was really normal with just average sex appeal thrown in there, which is just what it is. Mr. Cook was just fine wtih me. He had a ground floor loft studio, liked fishing, and was rich in his way I guess.

  • @SunShine8308 I was so relieved to let my hair grow after my alcoholic mother in Ohio subjected me to years of pixie haircuts!

  • Lisa from the very first moment I discovered your videos...I have had the strongest feelings that I crossed your path dozens of times in NY. At the very least walked parallel to the many paths you walked on (and only hearing this now confirms this to me). From giving up living w/ the roomie to move into a not so idyllic situation financially and otherwise to modeling (parts and all) to the candles and company of spirits. The photo is beautiful. Thank you for sharing!

  • @hipretty I was there for about 17 years and out and about daily and we could definitely have passed. Sophie was trying to protect me I think. I kept getting into bad relationships. I have found actually that I was really in the same room with some contacts here. It's synchronicity. We just were not aware at that time.  Fuh, huh? I enjoyed the vibe in NYC and it taught me to be a less fearful person within reason!

  • @hipretty I keep meeting people who know other people I knew. This is a tad spooky cuz it has even happened with my French spouse, ten years younger than I, from another culture. I look nice in that photo, eh? I have big eyes and my eyelashes look so long, also my hair. It is unretouched so you can see a bruise on me and some cellulite, but I am what I am! Hee hee hee! I still have a not so bad butt, so go figure.

  • @hipretty You should watch a video that Lisa sent me, "NY 77: The Coolest Year in Hell," which I am now also watching. You both lived through so much there; I could never live in the thick of it.

  • @SunShine8308 That is a really interesting documentary petermohlman sent me. Being there in those times was indeed terrifying. I was a sheep among wolves. When I tell people about what I experienced, they don't generally believe me, but it was horrendous, mountains of garbage and blood all over often. Lots of bugs, too. Yecch. It was a very hard scrabble existence many Americans I think could not grasp and yet it is their own country! It was still better than Ohio.

  • @hipretty New York was an amazing crossroads for so many people. When I drop names people think I am making it up, but the city was just like that.

  • @slobomotion

    part 1)

    I totally hear you Lisa, same here! I KNOW U R telling the truth because I was there, right in the middle of it all. All the "pretty people" and the not so pretty (NOT ugly just ugly at heart!) I had my 15 mins and then some if U know what I mean. My hubby, from a different culture & smaller town is blown away by some of what I have been through! I was just teling him yesterday if you never lived in the city (only familiar w/ the boroughs) .....

  • Part 2)

    As lost in crowd as you can get...you cannot imagine what a small town feel it could have as well. I would see the same faces at the market every week. It also taught me to be fearless...craving a slice of pizza at 3:00 a.m?. go for a walk and grab a slice. I marvel at how ballsy I was and proud (and not regretful at all of what I have done) and who I was!!! :-) It's all who I am today I guess!

    Blessings and More than Vaguely Familiar from a Parallel Path hugs to you! :-)

  • @hipretty My French spouse was astonished at how I would go out in the middle of the night and get stuff, alone. On the sleazy side, he thought it was way cool he could buy porn in Brooklyn at 4 am. We probably know a lot of the same streets, places and people. My hippie second fiancé was scandalized I carried a gun in a special holster illegally there but hey. It was all in good fun! xo

  • @hipretty NYC was really the school of hard knocks and then I moved to Paris, which is even trickier. If you survived that, you got the education of a lifetime. Good for you! A lot of people consider us freaks and couldn't walk a half a mile in our shoes. You can probably also do it in high kinky heels, ha ha! (I have no idea how I did that, myself.)

  • Comment removed

  • @hipretty Yes, did a lot of damage to my toenails but mine were a draw for prostitution. I heard the phone girls say, "She wears 'Dressed to Kill' shoes." The pair I have left have got to have had about 3,000 tongues on them. I only wore them outdoors once, to an event at Club 57. I walked there alone in them dressed in rubber. What a strange world.

  • Wow Lisa.  You have some major inner strength. The hauntings, warnings of Sophie et al, in New York - very interesting !! Any hauntings since moving to Paris?

  • @abelardinexile No, but I lived in a haunted house in Ohio for a bit with my parents and Jason Offut has interviewed me about seeing shadow people there. It was pretty much benign. It seems to be all clear here and I think it's important to stay calm in these circumstances. Sophie really bothered me and others, now that I think about it. My second husband demanded I buy him an apartment. He hated this place and heard chanting all day while I was out at work. Go figure!

  • @abelardinexile I kind of suspected outright the place was haunted but then when I found out others had had problems there, it took it beyond the space of my often too vivid imagination. I think Sophie was looking out for me and trying to keep me single and alone, probably rightly so as I have had so many bad relationships where people just sucked off me. That was a nice apartment, anyway, great area. I loved Prospect Park and riding horses in it!

  • @slobomotion hmmm I can relate - and wish I would have "listened" or let alone understood what spirits have warned me about over the years !!! especially in regard to relationships. oh well, eh?

  • @abelardinexile We often have protective entities around us and it is up to us to listen. When my second husband had a problem with the place, I ought to have told him to take a hike. I can't believe I bought him an apartment nearby. That was the most spoiled man on Earth. If Sophie pestered Angelo and others, that was an indication, too. I had bad men around me who were essentially just bloodsuckers. Yecch! xo

  • @abelardinexile I don't know why we don't follow our instincts more. If I ever see my current mother in law again, it will be very hard not to slap shit out of her! I think we are kind of conditioned to submit. With bad consequences. We're just trying to get through our days. I tend to make projects out of men and try to build them up. My bad!

  • @abelardinexile I knew I was on a healing path when I started having dreams about a decade ago of doing an axe murder on my parents in the USA. I woke up so refreshed! I have no idea what to do with this current, abusive spouse. No one has stood up for me about him. He scares the crap out of everyone. When he beat me several times in 2010, I am so glad I stood up to him and laughed in his face. He couldn't pull me down. The laws here say I am his chattel.

  • @abelardinexile My spouse who saw the ghost with me there seemed really annoyed I was making a clip of this. He tried to make peace with Sophie but it didn't work. One day, he heard a major crash, which was typical there. He'd take a bath and hear the door buzzer. It was astonishing, that and the phone were so clear! No doubt! I know plumbing can be noisy, but over the years ... well, it was ... a ghost, I guess!

  • @slobomotion thats interesting. I think I've always been able to get a "feeling" from a place (buildings and headaches at cemeteries), but nothing more than "good/bad". Otherwise I think my x was trying to communicate once-upon-a-time. he committed suicide in the basement - old 3 story victorian home - the home of our dreams, we use to say. Other than that, I guess i just don't "listen" or pay attention. ;-)

  • @abelardinexile Yeow!

  • @abelardinexile I think you should go with your instincts. It is hard to do because we have to use reason as well and not just run off crazy. I am sorry to hear about your ex!

  • @abelardinexile I had a great UFO experience here in 2002 with my spouse and neighbors witness. I guess that counts as paranormal! Good thing it was only around 8 pm and I was sober and so was my spouse, ha ha! I talked to my neighbors next day about it and with passers by right when it was happening. Spectacular display.
