Who hasn’t heard of air-guitar? You know, the ridiculously awesome practice of pretending to play rock or heavy metal-style electric guitar, including riffs, solos, etc? That’s some pretty sexy stuff, for sure. Now kick it up a notch: Air Sex. This month our own Brooklyn, NY was host to the Air Sex Championship 2010! On October 9, the Music Hall of Williamsburg hosted the much anticipated event.

Contrary to popular belief, Air Sex  is more than just dry humping inanimate objects (though thoroughly entertaining on its own). Contestants use toys, props and interpretive dance to wow a crowd of hundreds. But unlike the their strip bar counterparts, these events features neither nudity nor orgasms – fun for the whole family (well, the whole dysfunctional family anyway). Having a hard time imagining what this looks like? Just click on the video above to check out footage from the ghosts of Air Sex Championships past. I expect to see you all there next year…

Residents of one lucky Williamsburg neighborhood have the pleasure of housing a tree whose trunk resembles a giant vagina.

Now the sexy Sycamore is even more distinctive in that it was just freshly pierced; right in the clit (well what would be the clit).

The artist prefers to remain anonymous, but the new adornment is obviously getting a lot of attention.

Who doesn’t love random acts of art in nature; especially one which emphasizes vaginas in any way?

The tree is situated at Bedford Ave. and North 12th St. on the outskirts of McCarren Park if you want to go check it out for yourself, or lick it, or whatever.

Residents are delighted since this will obviously bring up the value of property in the entire neighborhood.

Police reported that a 15-year-old from Brooklyn shot himself in the penis on Sunday after fumbling with the gun that slid from his waistband. 

The youth claimed that he was walking home when the gun began to fall into his pants. When he grabbed for it, he accidentally pulled the trigger and fired a bullet through his penis.

He then (somehow) staggered home, told his mother what had happened, and the pair headed to Kings County Hospital.  

The teen was treated and released from the hospital before being arrested by police and charged with reckless endangerment and criminal possession of a weapon. Also the teen doesn’t foresee being pardoned by his penis any time soon.

If you’re one of the poor starving artists in this city, you’re going to need to know about some cool cheap things to do around town. A great resource for this is the website, freenyc.net, which lists all types of free events. One that I plan go to tomorrow is an art exhibition in Brooklyn involving ‘My Little Ponies’. 

my-little-ponyBlank My Little Ponies were given to local artists to design and tomorrow’s event features all of the results. Mediums include sculpture, photography and dioramas. After the exhibit, all of the ponies will be auctioned on eBay. The best part of this art project is that all proceeds go to Just Food, an educational and agricultural non-profits in the city.

I once tried to do a light installation piece with a bunch of bald, naked Barbies I stumbled upon in my father’s basement that my sisters and I had abandoned decades ago. I decided against the idea since I realized it might be too much of a fire hazard and burning plastic stinks. No worries, I’ve alerted the MoMa that the project is on hold until further notice…
