get @baffled


I am a baffled observer of the world around us, from H - Town, Texas, of course. I am an author, editor and researcher; the proprietor of Haiku Challenge Daily (www.haikuchallenge.tumblr.com); an ambitious but average drummer with a penchant for tabloid headlines. Life-long dream: swim with the sharks. These are my collected ramblings; an online compendium of utter nonsense, comprising art, culture, poetry, photography, technology and the newsworthy, arcane and inane.

The human condition is a never-ending parade of the fantastical, the endearing and the appalling (sometimes all in one go). I dip into the interweb pool and pull out some possibly interesting, possibly humorous and hopefully thought-provoking stuff for your consideration.

I like to think of 'get @baffled' as a “cabinet of curiosities”. There is original work here as well, both words and images. You will know it when you see it (because there will be a bloody great note attached giving me credit).

The Twitter handle is @baffled. Keep up!

“When one person suffers from a delusion, it is called insanity. When many people suffer from a delusion it is called a Religion.” Robert Pirsig

He didn’t just have “a” tattoo, his body was covered in a single, epic design, the yakuza way. Pity his childhood hero was Captain Kangaroo.

“Pornography is rather like trying to find out about a Beethoven symphony by having somebody tell you about it and perhaps hum a few bars.” Robertson Davies

“Art is like therapy; what comes up is what comes up. It may be dark, but that’s what comes up. You may want to keep some of it in a drawer… but never judge it.” Nick Bantock

They are playing “Simply Having A Wonderful Christmas Time” in this store. Let the ass-kicking commence.
