DBB IS DEAD! LONG LIVE DBB! |

I average
150 people a day still. I haven't done anything real in
like 2 years, but yet you keep coming. There is some
loyalty there that I do not understand. So for you loyal
DBB fans (and the people who got tricked into coming here) I
have to tell you something. Driven By Boredom is
dead. BUT! Joy! I have a blog site, a real one, not like
this page (I don't think the word blog existed when I started
this site. Hell, I am a god damn pioneer).
Anyway. As soon as I get a design up for the new page,
it will become t this page. That being said, there will
still be away to get to this page.. or at least most of
it. So yeah, that is that. Enjoy the new site.

- OH JOY! AN UPDATE! |

So it
doesn't really seem like I am updating this page anymore does
it? It's been exactly 6 months. I don't really
think a biannual update system is going to work very
well. I sort of want to shut this whole page down and do
something totally different with it. Which I still may
do. I deleted a bunch of stuff off of it, so there are a
ton more dead links that normal. Sorry. Some
people just don't appreciate being mocked on the internet
anymore. I am also selling a bunch of my domains.
So if you are interested in that kinda think go to www.borednetwork.com
and pretty much anything with a dead link is for sale.
Also borednetwork.com is for sale too, but I left the page
up.
I am
working on two photo pages. One will just be party
pictures, pretty standard issue photo blog. The other is
going to be my photo portfolio, because currently
photosbyigor.com is slacking. I haven't updated it in
ages. What I am updating more regularly is my Dolphins
website, so if you like football you might want to check that
out. It has it's on domain now... www.boredwithlosing.com.
Um, Gaskets
(check out the photo I took of them for the website). We
are almost done with the album. The next update will
probably be about how you can get a hold of it. It is
pretty amazing. I would say that at least 8 of the 12
tracks will rock the dance out of you. You probably
don't care, you are probably bitter that they take up all my
creative energies these days. I mean, they are really
the downfall of this site.
HST is
about to get blasted out of a cannon as per last update.
I am excited. I moved. I have a new place. It is
hot. It is still in Richmond, VA. There is a girl
I dig on, but we sort of hate each other too. My friend
Jamie's band Greenland
is really good. I had a photo show in May, it went really
well. 200 people or something. A friend of mine fell
through a glass store front window yesterday, I ran out of
this party and he was being loaded into an ambulance, his arm
was practically in pieces. It was one of the grossest
things I have ever seen. I spelled idols wrong in my last
update, it is fixed now. Sorry.
Help
Wanted. I have an idea for a screen play, anyone want to
write it? I am also looking for some one to book a
Gaskets tour, any help there? I am also looking for a
tattoo artist with in 2 hours of Richmond who will do a few
hours of work for a video we are working on. Also I need
a job in Richmond, preferably taking photos, but at this point
I'll do anything. I will also move the fuck out of here
if you have a job that will pay me a lot of money. Yeah. So
like if you can do any of that stuff... contact
me.
I'll
probably update again in late November or early December, so
hold your breath till then. XOXO. |

Igor |

One of my
idols and favorite author, Dr. Hunter S. Thompson shot himself
today. In his memory I am updating my site for the first
time in months, because he was always the person inspiring me
to write. I wrote this
for Stile Project years ago. It was a tribute to him,
and I think you should read
it if you haven't and read it again if you have.
I
figured that nothing in this world could kill him and it only
makes sense that the only thing strong enough to do it was
him. It devastates me that I will never get to meet him,
that if his other books get made into movies, he will not have
say over them, that I will never get to read something new by
him. However, I am extremely glad that he didn't die of
cancer or some bullshit disease. HST was a legend and he
will be forever. If you haven't read anything by him,
take this as an excuse to do so, you won't regret it. RIP.
Now, as
far as the web site goes. DBB is more or less done for
now. That is not to say that I will not update again,
but I will not be updating regularly. I will add more
content from time to time, but I would start checking my site
maybe once a month or once every few months instead of weekly
or daily or whatever. I love this site and will keep it
up for as long as I can afford to do so, however, I am just
not interested in doing this site right now.
As far
as other projects, I am still doing a lot of photography and
still managing the Gaskets.
I am one semester away from graduating and then I have no idea
what I am doing. I sold one page of my website, the old
Icy Hot Stuntaz page, so I have moved it here.
I am single and I have been sick for 2 weeks. I got a
new car, a Blue 2004 GTI. It is pretty. I am going
to Minnesota and probably Texas for spring break. This
is not very exciting. I am writing a research paper on
Blaxploitation film. I want Jamie Foxx to win best
actor, Clint Eastwood to win best director, and just to make
it even, Sideways to win best picture. I am insulted
that Michel Gondry was not nominated for best director and
that neither Kill Bill got nominated for best
picture.
Lastly,
here is a little bit of content. I made this
movie in this bullshit film class I took. It sucks,
but I shot it on real film so I think its cool. See you
in a month or two. |

Clearly I
am useless, either that or way too busy to deal with this
site. I would say its a mixture of both.
This is
Aug. And this is my Dolphins
site.
Lets
see. Last night I made out with a girl in a broken down
pick up truck in an alley. That ruled. I am also
kinda sick, and my internet access sucks. I shot like 20
rolls of film in the last week, and I might get some of that
stuff up at some point... but I don't know if I really will.
Listen to the band Sparks. They are good.
The
Gaskets are going to be playing at the 9:30
Club in DC on the 12th of October with Camper
Van Beethoven. It is DC's most important club and we
are excited.
I got a
parking ticket the other day when I was getting sushi.
That was not good.
I
clearly do not have a good update for you, so I am going to
go.
Oh
yeah, check out the cover shot I did for Chew
On This.
The
End. |

Yikes.
I have been trying to update for 3 days but every night my
internet goes down. Tonight it is up, but I have to go
work on the sketch of the layout of my new movie site, so I
can bring it to a guy to start coding it tomorrow. This
thing is going to be big I think. We are looking for
reviewers in LA, Chicago, NYC and Austin who watch at least 5
movies a week, and at least 2 films a week in the
theater. We are really looking for film junkies who have
some time to dedicate to the site, who know their shit and are
involved in their local film scenes... People who are going to
be able to see movies that the rest of the country can't.
Okay..
I gotta go, but I promise a better update Monday or Tuesday...
this weekend is going to be nuts... I'll archive Aug
then. |

- Photo Outtakes |
Email
Igor |

I work for
this website called Richmond.com. It is basically an
online newspaper for Richmond, VA. I had a bunch of
pretty good shots that haven't been published in articles, so
I figured I would upload them so the people in the shots could
see their photos. So yeah. Check
out the outtakes.
Also, I
uploaded some photos that I took in Coney Island. I
think they are pretty decent, so check them out.
Coney
Island
Recently,
I got some mice. They are cool. The brown one is
named Werner after Werner Herzog (Fitzcaraldo, Aguirre, Wrath
of God). The black one is named John after John Waters
(Pink Flamingos, Hairspray). The white one is named
Penelope after Penelope Spheeris (Decline Of Western
Civilization, Wayne's World) and the black and white one is
named Miike after Takeshi Miike (Ichi The Killer, Dead Or
Alive). Miike has killed two other female mice. He
chased them around trying to have sex with them, and then they
died. Basically he raped them to death, which is appropriate
because he is named after the best horror director in
Japan. Maybe I should have named him after Peckinpah,
get it? Probably not. Anyway, here are the pictures: Mice
1 and Mice
2.
Lastly,
a friend of an ex-friend started a alt-porn site. She
has yet to give me a password, so I don't know if its any
good... but if I ever check it out, I'll let you know.

I am going
through some video I have and will be posting at least one
other video this week. Maybe tomorrow or the next
day. I will eventually go through a lot of video and get
all that to you. I have like 20 tapes of stuff. It
is defiantly a project I care enough about doing, so we will
see. I think it might be worth wile. Anyway, this
tape I found while looking for Gaskets footage. Last year
their was a big hurricane that knocked all the power in
Richmond out, except for my building. So half the city
came and partied in our building. Anyway I video taped
one of my neighbors doing a back flip off the wall. It
is worth looking at I think. More stuff to come... I
hope. Here's July. I also updated my Dolphins
page. You could check it out. And um lastly, a
friend of a friend is stuck in prison, you should check
out some of the info, try to get an innocent man out of
jail. Rock on. Hurricane

New
video's coming very soon. This site is dying. I am
sorry. 400 hits a day... that is down from 1200 a year
ago. It's all a cycle I don't want to update cause
no one comes, and no one comes cause I don't update. Shit. Maybe one day it will be back.
But for the faithful there will be some reasonably
entertaining videos pretty soon as I have figured out how to
make my camera work again. In fact... here is this video
of an untitled Gaskets song in the works. David Lowery
from Cracker is in the background playing guitar.

Wow,
nearly a month without an update... and no complaints about it
all. I feel that means there are probably no people
reading this. Which I guess is fine. I just don't
have enough internet related things to say/post/show, or I
just don't have the time/energy/anything to do it.
Pretty much the last month of my life has just been spent
ripping my 800 or so CD's. Not so exciting. No
Gaskets news, I have no job, and all I do is watch
movies. I'm not even getting any. I have seen
about 50 movies since the last update, and I am not exaggerating
much. I have been averaging 7-10 movies a week for
the past 5 months. Top 5 movies I have seen in the last
month in no order: Fahrenheit
9/11, Lawrence Of Arabia, Stranger Than Paradise, Two-Lane
Black Top, Straw Dogs. The worst movie I have ever seen
I also watched recently. It is called Drug Store
Cowboy. I is the worst portrait of drug addicts I have
ever seen. Complete fucking trash.
Here is
June. Um yeah. What
else. I have nothing to say at all. Next update
should have some photos from Coney Island. I am also
working on my Photography site, which will be done
eventually. I am working on an anti-Bush
website with a number of people, but it may be a month before
anyone sees that, if in fact it ever happens. Hopefully
soon something interesting will happen, and I will have
something to report. Until then, stay classy planet
earth. |

So yeah, I
was in the Czech Republic for a while. Now I am
back. A few interesting things happen, but nothing you
would probably care about. I might have a few pictures
posted eventually, but maybe not. There's a few shots I
took that I like. That being said, I have some photos
that I am extremely psyched about. I spent quite a lot of time
recruiting people and shooting this work, so please enjoy
it. I have some pretty amazing 16"x20" prints
that I did for sale. They are $300 framed, but it would
cost a ton to ship them that way, so if you are interested email
me and we will talk. Yeah. Please let me know what
you think. This work means a lot to me.

- Best. Update. Ever. |
Email
Igor |

So today I
am actually following through with a promise about this
website. Well almost. I promised two or one big
one, and I am giving you one big one, but it does not have the
recent photos. I felt they are too important to me to
put in the middle of this huge update where they could get
lost. Anyway, let's start at the top.
Porn.
My website has been very lacking in it. Today you will
get the few remaining naked chick fan signs I have left.
If you have boobs, and want to send me more, please
do so, and I will post them. Today's boobs come from
a Suicide
Girl, a former Suicide Girl and a wannabe Suicide Girl
(and two others). For the record, I have had sex with
all the girls pictured except the girl with the giant
boobs. I win. Fuck you. See
them all here.

Secondly,
we have more Dysfunctional Family Circus cartoons. I
stopped doing these years ago because I saw other people doing
them and I wanted to do something more original.
However, these have become favorites of my page, so I added
some more. You can see the old ones here.

Also,
I had a shit load of pictures of my friends drunk at parties,
so like I figured I would upload them, being as my friends
enjoy seeing themselves wasted. These are also the
people who I hear from every day telling me my page sucks
now. I mean I get emails about this too, but like I
don't really give a fuck about what most of you have to
say. So yeah. Here
are some party pics.

Another
thing people used to like about my page was the stupid
lip-sync videos I did. That's how I started the page to begin
with, and although I thought it would only be funny to me and
my associates, it was actually funny to quite a few
people. If you don't know what I am talking about, click
here. Today I bring you the first new movie in 3
years. I recorded this video the day before I cut all my
hair off. Now I look like this.
Jefferson
Starship - We Built This City
Remember
my ebay pranks? It's what made my
page slightly infamous. Today I am selling a Yo!
MTV Raps card. Check that out at once. You
know you want to. You know you want to bid. You
MUST! People tell me to update this part of my page all
the time and I finally did. Get excited!
So
yeah, also I wanted to plug Arrogancy's
Flash Game, Beeku's
Big Adventure. It has been played over 200k times on
Newgrounds. It
also features two Gaskets
songs, including the demo to Earthquake.
We were in the studio yesterday and laid out the tracks for
it. It now features a crucial guitar solo from Mark from
Lamb Of God. Yeah.
Enjoy
this update you bastards, I worked hard on it. Oh yeah,
one more thing: I am going to be in Prague until the
19th, so if you want to reach me email me at
igor(at)thegaskets.com. I will be checking that from
Prague.
PS.
Here is May. |

For those
of you who have been looking for more content and less crap
from my site, today you are in luck. My brother (with a
bit of my help) created a fabulous film which I have decided
to upload today. It is about a world gone mad, a world
where people have to wear fake beards at all times. Certainly
this seems stupid, but the movie is fantastic anyway. It
is also 48 megs, so it might take a long fucking time for it
to download.
Fake
Beards & You: A Powerful Team
Also, I
am working on a fantastic update that old school fans of my
site will enjoy. You see, I am going to Prague for about
two weeks and won't be able to update. So before I go I
am going to try to get up two updates, or just one big
one. So check back soon, because there will be an update
with some of my recent photos, and an update like my page has
never seen before. I hope it works out.
Lastly,
the Gaskets go into the studio with David Lowery tomorrow, so
yeah, hope that works out too... |

- NYC Girls |
Email
Igor |
|
So last
weekend I went to NYC to see Stella.
The whole trip was pretty amazing. Among other things I
had a blast hanging out with Coney Island. I need to get
back to the city ASAP, but it's really expensive and my car
broke so it's kinda hard to get there. The point is, I
need an excuse to get there. So if any of you out there
live in NYC and have any ideas for booking a Gaskets show
there, let me know. We need to get up there soon.
Anyway, when I was up there I hung out with this girl who I
used to be sooo into. Unfortunately, she got a boyfriend
and moved to NYC, so I pretty much gave up on her. I
really figured I would never see her again... but I
did. So I had an amazing time with her (and
the other people I was hanging out with) and I ended up
kissing on her a bit... It made me realize why I haven't
had a girl friend in 3 years. The thing is, I never hook
up with girls I am actually into. When I like a girl, I
get all weird and can't talk to her. It happens every
time, but if I am not into a girl, I usually have no problem
with getting with her. I basically realized in the last
three years, I have hooked up with plenty of girls, and I
really haven't cared about any of them. There are some
exceptions, but there's only a few that I would have even
considered dating. This realization is pretty fucking
depressing. The truth is, of all the girls I have dated
(all 5.5 of them) only one of them I really cared about when
we started dating. Because of this, I cheated on girls,
and just didn't treat them well. The one I did, cheated
on me and treated me like shit. It is really just a
disaster. I need a wife.
Anyway,
again, sorry about the lack of updates. Soon I am going
to have a bunch of new photos. I've done a bunch of work
I am really happy with. Until then... here's April. |
