In Memoriam: Keith A. Glascoe

Keith Glascoe in The Professional

“… Rest peacefully, my Brother, I just came back from a 3 yr long assignment in Iraq, and I dare to say that Justice has been served. Farewell, my Friend, Farewell…” – Damir [Palladium, Tunnel, Club USA]

 

The following is an excerpt from PX This:

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 2001. 12:15PM

We got terrible news. A friend that B used to work with, “Big Keith,” is missing.

Such a nice guy, big and friendly and cute and good natured and happy. He’s a firefighter and I think nearly his entire squad is gone.

The last time I saw Big Keith was at Sugar in December, and I remember I asked him if he was still thinking about joining the fire department and he replied “I’m IN the fire department!”— so we chatted like wow how fast time flies, the last time I had seen him he was just talking about thinking about joining.

And he bought me a cup of coffee another night too and I felt weird, I wasn’t sure which was more insulting— to offer him money for it or not. I didn’t know the protocol, back at the Gatien’s nobody offered money, they just went and got it the next time.

Big Keith was in the movie The Professional and he was great in it really, even though it was a small role. He played Benny (one of the corrupt cops) and he has one awesome scene where he is standing in the hallway with his gun drawn, nervous and shaking and sweating.

Actually he is so remarkable I mentioned him in “The Ministry of Speed” too, and I guess it’s silly but I liked to imagine my film would actually get made one day and Keith could play one of the doormen and it would actually be the real him they were referring to in the dialogue. Something like that.

I remember one time Keith and I were chatting outside Naked Lunch and I was recounting to him how I’d taped The Professional on the VCR and then I realized “oh whoops you probably don’t want to hear that do you?” thinking it was bad I had videotaped it instead of paying to see it in a theatre. And eeheee he was cute he insisted “No! HBO is good, I’ll take HBO!”

New York Times staffer rape/death-threatens author, for unveiling alleged journalistic malfeasance-

NY Times’s lawyer advises Times staffer: “Hide misdeeds from Google searches”-

Evidence strongly shows that NY Times plagiarized author’s work and conspired with Gawker to suppress author-

Gawker’s Nick Denton threatens to fire/ blacklist any journalists tasked with reporting on misconduct-

Media bullies author and colludes in cover-up

Jeffrey Henson Scales, a New York Times photographer and editor, and/or his wife Meg Henson Scales, also a former New York Times contributor, have admittedly and continuously harassed and violently threatened author Abbe Diaz for well over a year now— for unveiling an alleged New York Times impropriety involving their daughter, NY Times "essayist," Coco Henson Scales.

Despite being warned not to contact Diaz (nor any affiliates of the PX This website) in accordance with the Aggravated Harassment report filed by Diaz with the Detective Squad of the New York Police Department, persistent malicious messages by the Henson-Scaleses (which were originally posted as comments to Diaz on the PX This website under such pseudonyms as “Wanda Smith,” “til8x8x8is4,” and “Jesus Palacios”) have included such malevolent sentiments as [entirely sic]:

“if you don’t take your shit about Coco?? You WILL lose the bullsit you have… ll change your mind. Keep an eye on your front and your back: WHORE.
You disgusting piece of smegma. I’d go to the electric chair laughing, if I only got to kill you.”

“… I will tell you this, though. IF I ever find your twisted weave within reachin’ distance of me, I will likely break your neck- if you have one, you no-necked piece of filth… I hope you die soon. I’ll keep my eye you, cunt.”

“you keep that shit lies about Coco? you fucking bitch. you twat. wannaget raped?“

“Keep talking about Coco Henson Scales. You must think actions doon’t have consequences”

Married a millionaire, my ass… Turning tricks for old men… Please. Just kill yourself. Make the world a better place.”

“… This is you first and last warnings. Take down your vicious drag queen sheet about Coco and Meg (I know them both); or your shit’s bout to be fried.
You ain’t nuttin but a losin, fugly, stupid bitch, with nuttin to work with.
Why you don’t kill yourself?
Jes sayin. YOU AIN’T SHIT.
Coco and Meg may not be able to hurt you, but WE WILL. NOW.”

px this: the series – louise – 01

top: All Saints, 2011 | sweater: All Saints, 2011

 

since i am such a lazy unglamorous hermit these days, i thought it might be fun to share the aesthetic with which i am currently most inundated (as is my wont, yes?). plus it’s just easier right now.

this is “Louise,” on the right. Louise is loosely based on you-know-who, and is brilliantly portrayed by Briana Packen.

Louise is wearing a matching “sweater set” from All Saints, and a pendant necklace i borrowed from my moms. Louise starts off kinda a mess in our story, but then gradually gets a lot more elegant over time, partly due to the healthy influence of her fabulous underlings, and the fact she may or may not be totally in looove.

 

check out more of Louise and friends in PX This: The Series – Coming Soon! :)
