...Wal-Mart one hour photo will not print photographs containing nudity. How was I supposed to know that? Should I feel ashamed? I clearly don't. They did print this one:
I was attempting to document a loving tribute to one of my favorite paintings of a definitely faggy subject matter, "The Swimming Hole" by Thomas Eakins. This isn't the first time I've dedicated a painting to him and I'm certain it won't be the last. Shared same sex outdoor nudity is just such a thrill, what can I say. Anyway, this particular swimming hole in Windsor that many of us have been frequenting is so uncannily similar, that it has begged a serious visual comparison. I love these moments when cliches return to their essence and regain their vitality. That is, when life imitates art and vice versa and when art imitates art and life imitates life.
Thomas Eakins The Swimming Hole, 1883, oil on canvas, 27 x 36 inches

Skinny dipping with you is my dream. Let me know the time and place, thunder and lighting will also be in attendance.
and i will be on the tails of thunder and lightening.
Weren't you aware that the unclothed human body is pure evil? Walmart has saved another soul from damnation.
