Coagulation

Coagulation

This is a coagulated puddle of blood at the end of the trail. Apparently Goddog was messing with a broken window, and sliced his hand pretty bad.

You ate Goddog's blood on a Ritz cracker?!?!?!?! Did you at least wash your hands first? =8-o

A Ritz cracker? Townhouse crackers are much better. They have a more buttery taste to them to compliment the coagulation of the blood.

p.s. please, do try to be more careful next time. i hope your hand healed alright. if you're also a guitarist i sure hope it wasn't your left hand (unless you're left-handed).

This calamity occured back in the summer of '03. The room has since been blackened and burned, about a year and a half ago.

Trust me, a lot of blood can come out of your hand, especially when you are drunk and have been messing around with broken glass. Ask anyone who has been drunk and inside of an old building. Or as in my case, dropped their beer and attempted to pick it back up.

I got cut on a window also.
I ended up riping off one of the shirts i was wearing to use it as a bandage.

What's that thing in the puddle of blood, to the far right?
Jessica

An empty pack of cigarettes?

Man that must've hurt like stinking hell... sheer luck was not passing out right there.

I cut a finger once, sliced to the bone, and the thing bled so much I got dizzy and went straight down.

Well, luck or I'm just that big a sissy =P

I don't believe I called Byberry a party pit. The gallery description was an account of what happened to me there, and I think the memories I wrote down were rather objective. If you think it was a party pit then that would be your opinion and not mine.

I know these places only by the history and the real life experiences I have had there after they closed. I choose to write about both and display the photos I took as honestly as I can.

Um, wow. I'd gotten quite used to assuming that everything that looks like blood in these photos is just rust or whatnot... I actually thought you were kidding in the previous shot.

I have to laugh - GodDog was interviewed in the article in 2006 "No trespasser has ever been injured" What now? Whose blood is that then?!
