I like this

Seen in Brooklyn at the East River. My dad told me this was Robert MacNamara's "practical" Ford Falcon Ranchero.

Awesome band names that are already taken

"The Blackout Shoppers" I spotted their sticker at Otto's Shrunken Head, NYC. Subtle anarchy.

Fiorello LaGuardia

What a fabulous mayor!

She could take a little of her own advice

Some fashion advice from Victoria Beckham as quoted by the Los Angeles Times', “Image” magazine. “However you’re built, be mindful of the rule that if you get your boobs out, put your legs away and vice versa.”

Subway to Your Soul

The M,R stop at Montague St. Brooklyn Heights. The subway entrance is directly below a church. Does the preacher use the subway rumbling as an allusionary device during services? Does he liken the sound of the trains passing underneath to the rumblings in the depths of hell? Does he shout over the thunderous sound, howling to the congregants to,"Beware the day of reckoning!" ? I wonder.

blunderous mouth

The Brooklyn Bridge

The Brooklyn Bridge as seen from The River Cafe in Brooklyn. I was there viewing the fireworks on the East River this year on the 4th. After the show, I saw Susan Sarandon. She's beautiful, she smiled at our whole group- a big, toothy, real smile. She oozed friendliness.

Laundry on a Line in Three parts

I was at a rooftop bbq on Tuesday night in Williamsburg. The view to the south included a couple loads of laundry hung out to dry on a line. It reminded me of a painting from the Ashcan school of old New York.
