Forgive Us


Okay, now we feel bad. Traffic on Fresyes blew up over the weekend, primarily because of our "Nazi Olsen Twins" coverage. In order to improve our karma and make up for the unnecessary publicity we gave to those girls, I'd like to point everyone to a much better teen-pop duo: Smoosh. The Seattle-based sisters, who have opened up for the likes of Pearl Jam and Death Cab, are now touring the West Coast and aren't white supremacists.

As for the Nazi sisters, Fresno Famous readers helpfully pointed out that their grandfather once cut down a tree with the Virgin Mary on it, and their mother April was once arrested for riding a horse down Fresno's Blackstone Avenue wearing only KRZR bumper stickers on her body. From the Fresno Bee, 1994:

"Gaede, riding a white horse near Blackstone and Shaw avenues, wore bumper stickers across her breasts, a G-string, a cowboy hat with bunny ears, a white bunny tail and cowboy boots.

"She was participating in Fresno radio station KRZR's 'Wild Hare' promotion. Prize money, including $ 10,000 for first place, is to be awarded to contestants who do something wild as long as it is legal."


Classy.

We, meanwhile, can't wait for the day Lamb and Lynx Gaede finally rebel against their parents, redeem themselves, and go to prom with two nice black men.
