Bill Cosby’s Jell-O Head

Posted 7/14/2009 8:56 am by Ron Hogan

My friend Andrew is a huge Bill Cosby fan. I’m not sure why, but he’s my age and he’s a gigantic Cosby nut. He’s hunting down Bill’s old comedy records and has not only bought one ticket to see Bill perform with the hope of meeting (and being rendered completely speechless by) one of his legitimate heroes. I have to wonder what he’d say about Andrew Salomone’s portrait of Bill Cosby rendered in Jell-O shots. Considering he’s not a drinker, he wouldn’t like the shots part, but I think he’d be a huge fan of the Cosby Jell-O head.

The head itself is pretty impressive in its own way. Yet again, planning impresses me. However, the most interesting part to me is the fact that, as people came by to take Jell-O shots, Cosby morphed into something else entirely. Salomone had a camera on hand and he captured the Cosby morphs.

I think my favorite is when Cosby randomly turned into a game of Pac-Man, but they’re all pretty interesting. I would love to see a Hunter Thompson made out of Jell-O shots (or psychotropic drugs).

Christmas In September

Posted 9/03/2010 10:00 am by Ron Hogan

It’s probably the longest standard Christmas season in the world.  In the Phillippines, from San Juan to Manila, September means Christmas.  Oddly enough, the Phillippine Christmas season generally runs 115 days, from September 1 until well after the actual day of Christmas.  And I thought Christmas decorations in October was bad!
However, while their national Christmas [...]

Controversy is busting out all over the United States thanks to a peculiar language choice.  We’ve all seen those breast cancer awareness bracelets, right?  Those little rubber pink bands that might have a little slogan on them, or say something about curing breast cancer?  Well, Carlsbad, California-based charity organization Keep A Breast, which is designed [...]

The call came in on Tuesday.  Two young goats were stranded on the narrow ledge of a railroad bridge where it passes over a little-used stretch of road between Billings and Roundup in Montana.  The only problem was, nobody could pinpoint where exactly this was (that should tell you how remote this area is).  It [...]

Smoking Toddler Kicks The Habit

It was one of the most shocking stories I’ve ever seen when I wrote about the smoking-addicted toddler in Indonesia.  Between his weight and his love of smoking, that kid wasn’t going to live to see puberty, let alone grow to adulthood!  However, thanks to the hard work of therapists and significant government intervention, the [...]

Happy 90210 Day!

Posted 9/02/2010 12:00 pm by Ron Hogan

It’s one of the 90’s most enduring pop culture phenomenon.  It spawned a whole miniature empire of spin-offs and remakes, made Tori Spelling into a household name, carried the Fox Network’s non-animated programming banner, and somehow remains an incredibly popular show to this very day.  It’s Beverly Hills 90210, and today is officially 90210 Day [...]
