This little snippet of historical fact was in the "Sunday Magazine" insert for the Sunday Telegraph paper here in Sydney...

"The LA-based label was created by the late 1950s hot rod artist Kenneth Howard, aka Von Dutch, who embraced everything vintage, from classic threads to custom hot rods. The California artist, musician and car nut died in 1992, but his label lives on with the mantra "freedom, style, sex, power and motion", which isn't a bad motto to live by."

WTF??? At least they spent the time to find out who the hell Von Dutch was, but I thought the only thing he embraced was a bottle of wine! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Of course, the snippet was accompanied by a photo of Paris Hilton going to the opening of an envelope somewhere.

Who really gives a shit about Von Dutch? At this stage of the game I'm more interested in Paris Hilton.

Yup Paris is right up there with Pammy on the America's biggest slapper list, both are enough to make me change channels.

Paris looks like a puppet from the Dark Crystal. The other one, Nicki, is a babe.

Just goes to show that some reporters make shit up, instead of looking up some facts. Or, maybe they looked up the facts, and decided that pop culture didn't need to know he was an "eccentric".

If that's the version of Von Dutch they're passing around, gotta make you wonder about validity of the "serious" news stories...

BTW, how much you want to bet the clothing line people sent the "reporter" that little factoid about his history...

Ooh, I can see it all coming together, now. Dutch in his shop, working on a homemade rifle, or making a knife blade by hand. All of a sudden, a light bulb pops over his head. Then he slurs to himself, "I know!. I should design some sexy vintage threads before I completely pickle my liver! Then I can finally be a part of the lexicon. That's it! Make my mark on pop culture with stylish trucker hats for the kids on the MTV!" Who fawkin' cares what Hollywierd thinks. As for Paris, there's room for her on the stickshift.
