and your broken body aches a lot
you must concentrate on the big picture
don't forget to smile for your mugshot!

smile for your mugshot 2X
even if you're distraught
smile for your mugshot!

someday the govt will use it
to make people think that you're a creep
don't fall into their tricky trap
remember to look friendly and look neat!

it may be seen on TV or in papers
even if you're merely caught with pot
there's a good chance it will be seen by your neighbors
so don't forget to smile for your mugshot!

[chorus variations]

My Jokes Are In It!

In Maine, they (who are they?) used to sell big plastic bottles of these mixed drinks - Margaritas, Mudslides and what have you - under the brand name "The Liquor's In It", presumably so that if you're so drunk, if you can read, you can still find the liquor.

So it is with that old thought in mind that I call this entry, "My Jokes Are In It!" so that you know what entry to look for when you are looking for the book my jokes are in when you are so drunk.

The book, titled, "Filthy, Funny and Totally Offensive" was put together by Jeffrey Gurian. The book features lots of famous people, such as Drew Carey & Jason Alexander, and everyone's favorite comedians Scott Baio and Joan Rivers. And also, me. It was recently yapped about in NY Post's infamous Page 6...which only further proves the utter classiness of me and my jokes. Although I don't get any money from this book, you can still go ahead and buy it if you like.

You can buy the book HERE

Also, by the by, you can find out more about the man behind the book right here:

READING ALERT!

Ever been to a suck ass reading and then said to yourself, "This shit is so boring! I'm never going to another reading again?" Well, I have. But then I moved to New York and then I went to Rachel Kramer Bussel's reading show called "In The Flesh" reading series. Once, I performed in it and told a story (with colorful illustrations) about the "time" I had "sex" on a "plane". Other times, I've gone back and reveled in the amazing line-up of great writists, delish cupcakettes and pretty New Yorky types, lookin' all around, eyein' up strangers (and sometimes even me) and hunting for a bed warmer / general good time out.

The show is the third Wednesday of the month at Happy Ending and it is free. However, warning, warning: The show is always so packed you can't get in if you don't get there early. You are literally standing out in the hallway wishing you were cool.

So don't be late, or you be a loser.

Here are some pictures that were taken by Brian Van Nieuwenhoven, the resident photographer at the "In The Flesh" reading series:

2006 Rehash

A lot of crazy shit has happened to Jessica Delfino in 2006.
Read all about it...if you dare or care.

1. Feb. 2006: Her boyfriend, activist and musician Christopher X. Brodeur was illegally sentenced to serve a year of his life at Riker's Island on February 15, 2006. That's not something that happens every year now, right? But she managed to get right on through it, now didn't she?

More information about Christopher is available at: http://www.mayorbrodeur.com
And at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_X._Brodeur

2. July 2006: Jessica went, on invitation, to the Montreal Comedy Festival, aka "Just For Laughs" (or Just Pour Rire if you're french) and showed her animated video/cartoon, "I Wanna Be Famous", illustrated by Nick Fox-Gieg. You can see the video here, if you haven't yet:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxNiOK_-hrs

She wrote a story about her trip here:

http://jessydelfino.blogspot.com/2006/07/i-went-to-canada-all-i-got-was.html

3. August 2006: Jessica was invited on a cross-country tour as the opening act for The Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players and Mr. Corn Mo. During the tour, her boyfriend was released from jail (early for good behavior) 7 months into his stint, at which point he flew to Phoenix where they were happily reunited, in the midst of the tour.

4. Oct. 2006: Jessica's video for her dance hit, "My Pussy Is Magic" was completed after much anticipation by her and much hard work by former Mad TV director, Matt Davis (who is now currently working as a director for the new Human Giant sketch comedy show on MTV.) It was uploaded onto Youtube.com where in less than four days, it was linked to by Comedy Central's Insider website, Gawker, Fleshbot and other websites around the world. The day after Youtube sold their site to Google for $1.65 billion, the video was removed from Youtube. The name was changed the video was put it back up where it remained up from October onward, until just today, when it was noted it had been removed again.

5. December 2006: Jessica was getting ready to head out on her "Merry Shitmas" tour when a friend called the night before she left. He said, "William Donohue of the Catholic League denounced you and your magic pussy video in his press release!" Of course she was beside herself with delight upon hearing this confirmation that she was, in fact, "famous", as William Donohue only denounces people who he thinks are famous so he can get some attention himself. Others he has denounced include Marilyn Manson, George Bush and Joan Osbourne. Read all about it here:

http://www.surfreality.com

See his original press release here:

http://www.catholicleague.org/06press_releases/quarter%204/061219_obscenities.htm

In other news for 2007, Jessica is negotiating a 2-CD deal with record label "Loudmouth Records", and she is working on two books, and she is acting in a play called "Little Building", (now in its' 2nd run) written by Nick Jones of "Jolly Ship The Whizbang" fame. (www.thewhizbang.org) Nick and his play were praised in a recent New York Times article and she is delighted as slut-flavored punch to be involved.



Jessica Delfino is interviewed at the O'Debra Awards 2006, NYC, where she won an award for "Danielle Steele Award for Most Unbridled Passion"

A new internet networking site? What is this madness you speak of?

Friendster. Myspace. Ivillage. Vegetarian Kitchen. Youtube. Artstars. Pop Bitch. Metafilter. Live Journal. Blogger. The list goes ON and ON.

And now, there is yet one more.

A friend sent me information about a site that he is working with and I checked it out, and well, it's kind of unique in my opinion. It's like a combination of Art Stars and Blogger. I dig it. In fact, I registered there and began a blog. The site is www.oomph.net.

Who knows if I'll keep up on it or not? I didn't mean to be so responsible with "Jessy Delfino's Blog." But somehow, I did it!

In my collection of blogs, I have my aforementioned blog, "Jessy Delfino's Blog", (this very blog which you are reading) which I started years ago, and I also have my "You Can Be A Better Boyfriend" blog, which is offers simple, practical, ridiculous advice to dudes on the topic of how to be a better boyfriend. Both of those blogs will live on, but as I mentioned above, I started a new blog at Oomph. It's called, "The Anti-Subservient Hour." The name is kind of a joke. But it's kind of not, too. So, if you register there, don't forget to read my first blog entry. And there is a poll about death.

My name on the site is MissMagic. It's kind of a gay-sounding handle in retrospect. It's based on my video. Maybe it'll work out - maybe I'll make friends with some witches, or some magicians. So, if you register, look me up by searching for MissMagic. Or click here to see my profile.

I'm trying to drag some pals over there so I'm not lonely. So, if you're a work a lot Johnny with too much computer time at the 10-6, or if you're a writer who researches blogs, or if you're a stay at home mom who has a little down time after the little whipper snapper has shitted his drawers and conked out for a precious fourty-five minutes of mom-is-a-human-too time, perhaps you'll consider this site as a viable outlet.

MY MYSPACE ACCOUNT DELETED...then given to someone else???

What the fuck does this mean?

In an email dated November 2nd, I wrote:

***SPEAKING OF WHICH, Myspace Account DELETED!***

Jessica Delfino's Myspace.com account has been deleted by Myspace. No explanation, no reason, no notice. It was simply deleted. I wrote and asked why several times, and they never wrote back. My video was not on Myspace. No songs of mine were on Myspace. Gone. RIP friends on Myspace who I'll never see or talk to again. I put hours of work into that Myspace page. For shame!
I don't mean to go all conspiracy theory on your asses, but it sort of seems like someone is trying to keep me from sharing my art. First Youtube, then Myspace...hmmm...it's certainly a bit of a head scratcher.

Go see for yourself: www.myspace.com/jessicadelfino


NEW NEWS:


If you used to click on the above link, it said: This account TERMINATED due to violations or some stupid crap.

If you go to that myspace account, you will see that SOMEONE NAMED AMANDA now has it...what the fucking fuck!!!???

I wrote an email to myspace asking them about why my account was deleted and they never wrote back. Now, some chick named Amanda has it? What the hell is going on? Why don't aliens just come and get me and take me away, for fuck's sake? This episode of Twilight Zone is too trippy for me. I stopped taking acid ten years ago.

Can anyone out there explain WHAT THE FUCK!!??

There was nothing offensive on my myspace page. I think maybe I wrote that I write songs about vaginas. OH SHIT!! I didn't even have any songs up on it.

But now I have a new myspace account, www.myspace.com/jessydelfino and everywhere the word "vagina" should appear, it instead says, "sandwich". I also made a music page at www.myspace.com/jessydelfinotunes. It only has Eye Patch, Ice Queen and Grand Piano, some of my tamest songs, to not piss off the censors at Myspace. But I won't be surprised if euphemisms aren't allowed either! You fucks! You rich fucking fuck heads! I'm struggling to pay my rent, I'm a poor, broke ass performer. My video has traveled around the world and back ten times. And do I have one penny from that? Guess what the right answer is? It's NO, mother fuckers! I have not ONE penny from that. So give me back my GOD DAMN myspace account or the nice lady of Jessy Delfino's Blog is gonna do this American style and take your khaki asses to court! What do I have to lose...my myspace page?

HOME FOR SHITMAS

It's only been 2007 for six days? It feels just like forever.

Not that everyone hasn't already asked and I haven't answered already, "It was great! How was yours?" But, one more time...my Shitmas was...well...not such a Shitmas at all, really. I actually had a good holiday. Oh, fuck...does this mean I'm losing my edge?

I went to mom's and hung out with sister, sister, sister, sister, and sister. Also step dad and step dad's son. And sister's boyfriend, also sister's boyfriend and sister's boyfriend. Grandma and her sister were also there, and Aunt. And Aunt's boyfriend. Much alcohol was consumed. Only one family fight broke out, and it had not one thing to do with anything I had done or said! I was actually a mediator for once. Wierd.

Everyone gave each other home-made or small, important gifts. There wasn't tons of plastic or tons of paper, just tons of booze, in a loving, caring environment of booze consumption and happy togetherness. A vegetarian meal was prepared for the holiday, for the first time, ever. Amazing. I never, ever thought I'd live to see that happen in my Italian household. The whole experience was almost gross with sweetness, but that doesn't really ever happen in my family, because everyone is a sarcastic bitch, in a really good, funny way. If things got too mushy, mom would pour a few nips of whiskey out, crank up the Sting and start doing white lady dance. Sister would jab hard waxing intense wisecrackery. Sister would battle with other sister in a battle of wisecrackery and wit, where the first person to reduce the other one to tears wins. And the balance of the proper putrid to mush equation would be restored. But that didn't happen. And for the first time in a long, long time, I know I speak for everyone when I say, we actually had a really beautiful Christmas.

My mom has this huge chest of papers and crap that she's been saving since before any of us were born. It's a giant bin of old treasures that she won't let any of us near. For Christmas, she gave me a free pass into the massive dust cave and I was given a few childhood tokens as parting gifts. Most of my childhood photos are dark and I can't be made out too well. But you can still see the gleam of trouble in my eye, even back then.

Let's celebrate with a very shoddily drawn cartoon starring myself, The O'Debra Twins, Rick Shapiro and others.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

NYC ARTIST RESPONDS TO CATHOLIC LEAGUE’S ATTACK

 

December 22, 2006—Jessica Delfino today called Catholic League President William Donohue “a hypocrite and a bigot” for what she described as “anti-Muslim statements” denouncing her act.

 

In a December 19th statement (See: http://www.catholicleague.org/06press_releases/quarter%204/061219_obscenities.htm), Catholic League President William Donohue publicly attacked New York City-based musician and performance artist Jessica Delfino, accusing her of providing “ammunition” to radical Muslims.

“Jessica Delfino is taking her ‘Merry S--tmas Tour’ on the road,” complained Donohue.  “Her performance includes the showing of an obscenely-titled video banned from YouTube that features her rapping about her vagina, complete with obscene pictures flashing in the background.  Rapping about her genitals, she sings, ‘it will become your true religion.’”  He said.

Donohue then went further with his accusation, claiming, “None of this is without malice.  And at a time when radical Muslims are accusing Americans of harboring a depraved understanding of liberty, it only provides ammunition to the enemy.”



Jessica Delfino minced no words in her response. 

 

“I was brought up Catholic, and I was also brought up to believe that it isn’t anti-Catholic to celebrate the life-giving and life-nurturing parts of a woman’s body,” said Delfino.  “I don’t know why William Donohue hates women’s bodies.  I don’t know why he is afraid of refocusing attention on humanity's true source of creation, the mysterious and magical womb.  But I do know that William Donohue is a hypocrite and a bigot, who has publicly made outrageous and highly-offensive anti-Semitic, and now anti-Muslim statements.  And that certainly doesn’t make him a better Catholic than I am,” she continued.  “William Donohue does not speak for all Catholics.  He doesn’t speak for me,” she concluded.


William Donohue infamously made a December 8, 2004 assertion on Scarborough Country that “Hollywood is controlled by secular Jews who hate Christianity in general and Catholicism in particular.  It’s not a secret, okay?  And I’m not afraid to say it.”  This statement was widely viewed as anti-Semitic.

Jessica Delfino is a critically acclaimed artist who has appeared on Good Morning America and Opie & Anthony, and whose work has been called, “Funny and smart” by Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore in Arthur Magazine and “some of the most nasty, offensive, degrading, and genius comedy you’ll see all year,” by the New York Blade.  Last year, she was named “Best Potty-Mouthed, Guitar-Slinging Comedian of 2005” by the Village Voice.   She has received similarly glowing reviews from Jane Magazine, High Times, The Onion A/V Club, Time Out New York, and numerous other local and national publications.  More information about her can be found at jessydelfino.blogspot.com.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

CATHOLIC LEAGUE PRESIDENT DENOUNCES JESSICA DELFINO

In a December 19th press release published on the Catholic League's Web site, Catholic League President William Donohue denounced New York City-based musician Jessica Delfino, accusing her of providing “ammunition” to radical Muslims.

“Jessica Delfino is taking her ‘Merry S—tmas Tour’ on the road,” complained Donohue. “Described as ‘rife with Christmas-themed debauchery,’ Delfino worked last night in New York City, appears in Washington, D.C. tomorrow and travels to Durham, North Carolina on Thursday. Her performance includes the showing of an obscenely-titled video banned from YouTube that features her rapping about her vagina, complete with obscene pictures flashing in the background. Rapping about her genitals, she sings, ‘it will become your true religion.’” He said.

Donohue then went further with his accusation, claiming, “None of this is without malice. And at a time when radical Muslims are accusing Americans of harboring a depraved understanding of liberty, it only provides ammunition to the enemy.”

William Donohue has previously gotten in hot water for some of his remarks, including a December 8, 2004 assertion on Scarborough Country that “Hollywood is controlled by secular Jews who hate Christianity in general and Catholicism in particular. It’s not a secret, okay? And I’m not afraid to say it.” This statement was widely viewed as anti-Semitic.

Jessica Delfino is a critically acclaimed artist who has appeared on Good Morning America and Opie & Anthony, and whose work has been called, “Funny and smart” by Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore in Arthur Magazine and “some of the most nasty, offensive, degrading, and genius comedy you’ll see all year,” by the New York Blade.” Recently, she was named “Best Potty-Mouthed, Guitar-Slinging Comedian of 2005” by the Village Voice. She has received similarly glowing reviews from Jane Magazine, High Times, The Onion, Time Out New York, and numerous other critics.

Ms. Delfino was stunned by Donohue’s accusations. “My act is anti-stupidity, and anti-complacency, not anti-Catholic or anti-Christian, and I have a pretty good feeling that it’s about to be a little bit anti-William Donohue. This is a guy who goes on TV in the middle of the day when kids are watching, and yells at America that ‘Hollywood likes anal sex.’ But now he doesn’t like vaginas either? He should take that one up with God. And the real question is why does William Donohue keep saying things that are anti-Semitic and anti-Muslim? He's so negative! He is the opposite of everything Christ stood for, and I agree with Jesus."

Jessica Delfino will be appearing at Warehouse Next Door in Washington, D.C. at 8:30 PM on Wednesday, December 20th, and at 305 South in Durham, North Carolina at 8 PM on Thursday, December 21st. More information about her, including a link to her YouTube-banned video can be found at jessydelfino.blogspot.com.

Jessica Delfino was raised as a Catholic.

(How) I Got Off My Ass And Got On Drugs (Again)
by Jessica Delfino

I went through a very dark period of my life where I quit smoking
marijuana. I don't like to talk about it or really even think about it, but it was
my life. It happened to me.

Every day of not being stoned was like a different day over and over
again for me. There I'd be, just sitting, watching tv, eating a whole entire
bag of donuts with one hand and a whole entire bag of popcorn or peanuts
with the other, when I realized, you know what? I'm not stoned and I'm still
engaging in the munchies like I never stopped smoking pot. I've got all
the food and none of the buzz. I don't like this feeling. It made me feel
like I was truly on my way to being fat without any reason behind it. I didn't
want to be one of those fat people. I wanted to know exactly how it had
happened. I wanted to be able to blame it on marijuana.

What is the most important thing in my life, I asked myself, hypothetically,
not exactly expecting myself to answer out loud back to me. But strangely, I
did answer myself. And this is what I said. "Marijuana, and comedy.
Comedy is the most important thing to me. I love it. I like to make people
laugh. I like to make myself laugh at myself making people laugh. There are many
levels to it. It runs very deep. It's sort of interesting, and at the
same time not, really. Marijuana is the thing that makes comedy not feel so
depressing and also makes eating for four fun."

What I said really affected me. I was like, "Hey, wait a minute, me.
You've got some really good insight here. But here you are, sitting on the
couch, stuffing your face and not prioritizing. You know what is important to
you, yet you are not doing that thing."

And I had me. It was totally true. I should have been out doing comedy,
my lips fresh off a fat doobie. So I called up my friend who is always
quick to try to push a joint down my lungs. I said, "Hey. What are you doing?"
And he was like, "Nothing." And I was like, "I was wondering if you know any
spots tonight?" And he was like, "Why don't you come over and we'll smoke
this J, then we'll go do a spot?" And I was like, "I don't smoke weed." And he
was like, "It makes comedy fun and not depressing. Those are your words,
you know." And I was like, "I'll be right over."

I arrived with a bag of chips as an offering, because I don't know how
to pick wine out the right way. I gave him the chips. He was standing on a
ladder, packing a fourteen foot bong. He was scooping the marijuana out
of a cat litter bag with a pair of salad tongs. He looked at me like I'd
just walked in on him wacking his bag off. And in a way, I felt like I had.
I was like, "Um...I thought we were gonna smoke a J or whatever." He was
like, "Well, I have a lot of weed and you don't smoke, so I figured I'd just
make you help me smoke a lot of it." So, smoke is what we did. I climbed up
on top of that bong, and I huffed, and I puffed, and I fell over.

When I woke up, three days had passed. I was in a room in a house I'd
never been in before. There was a lady named Fannie who was yelling at some
dirty faced kids. There was also an older guy eating ice cream out of the
container with a fork. I knew I had made the right decision to start
smoking marijuana again. I think it was a Tuesday, because I had no idea what
day it was, and that is usually the day I come around in the week and say, oh,
yeah, it's a new week.

So, I hope you've all learned something here.

1) Smoking marijuana kills the pain of following your dreams.
2) Smoking marijuana gives you multiple excuses to be able to do things that seem to be stupid ideas to others who are more organized in life.
3) I can't not smoke weed because it's not fun to not be stoned.

Funny!

I'm pretty tickled by this video - It's a "reaction" video to some people watching my video for my song, "My Pussy Is Magic".

REACTION VIDEO

Was this a class assignment? And is the guy in the video related to Todd Montessi? This new art makes questions in me arise. Perhaps the answers I will never know.
