    I’m not sure why it is, but the three-day-weekends always seem to go the quickest, even with the extended time away from work. Even so, I am pretty excited for the upcoming holiday weekend. Since Monday is a bank holiday, the firm is also closed. We are still trying to finagle Reagan’s work situation for…

    Warning: this post contains nothing interesting (not that any of them do, hahahah). But, some good things have happened this week, already, and I just thought that I would feel like an ingrate if I didn’t share them. Here we go with the lists, again. First– I recently sweated my iPod Shuffle to death. So…

    Last weekend was one of those times when I could have cloned myself and built a time machine, and still not have been able to get in everything that I wanted to.  Saturday night, I checked out the new Hole Gallery in SoHo. It will eventually be moving to the old Deitch space (above). Check…

    Well, most the day went as planned. We still have fish, since the dude who is supposedly picking them up, has now scheduled and flaked on 3 separate occasions. Complaining aside, today was ultra productive. Tomorrow is going to be another busy one, but I’m looking forward to it. Particularly, I’m looking forward to the…

    And it is just going to get worse. I shot a G-Shock event tonight at the Bowery Hotel. It was the first time I had ever been there. I snapped the image above when I was adjusting the flash output, and exposure settings. Normally, I go back through and delete all of the test shots.…

    I had this thing tonight in DUMBO, and decided to walk back across the Brooklyn Bridge before catching the train. I was rewarded with this sunset. I would just like to iterate that these images are straight out of the camera, with zero editing (enhancement). It was a pretty good one. So ready for the…

    …in the words of Ice Cube. The photo has nothing to do with anything. While we are on the subject, I had about 9 people ask me, today, what is the significance of “Ware 2.” So sorry to disappoint. The answer, there is no significance. Just some dude with a red broad-tip and bad hand…

    It’s from the P-pit show, night. Also, I’m thinking about abandoning Facebook. Not for any sort of noble reason (afraid of privacy issues, etc..). Mostly just so that I’m not tempted to waste time browsing it. I’m still deliberating.

    Apparently summer decided to show up, last night. Today was a scorcher. I almost rode my bike to work this morning. So glad that I opted out of that one. Against my better judgment, I ran 6 miles after work. I almost melted. In fact, I may actually have been melting. I also ran the…

    I was going through the images on the point and shoot, from the weekend, and found the shots above the Reagan grabbed during Passion Pit. I thought that they were pretty cool. Thanks, Reag! Also, I was hoping so bad that I would come across a Banksy this weekend. In fact I’m such a nerd,…
