People In NYC Do Look Up

In the entire time that I’ve lived in NYC, I don’t remember ever looking up – at the sky, at buildings, etc. – for any non-work related reason. I think it’s because every time I’ve ever seen anyone look up, I automatically categorize them as a tourist/a person blocking the sidewalk. I actually did it recently and got some strange looks from pedestrians. So why would I lump myself into that category? Yet aside from the dude in the orange shirt, I found out that everyone else in the picture looking up lived in the neighborhood.

On another note, I’m about to depart on a 20+ hour plane ride across the Pacific. That’s gonna suck. I also realized that I’m going to be gone for a month, which is a hell of a lot of time.

If you’d like a post card or something while I’m away, post or e-mail me your mailing address.

More updates and wacky photos tk.

Cookie Monster Is Out of Rehab

Apparently, after recovering from his cookie addiction, Cookie Monster learned to play the xylophone and started a band with Robot Chicken and a pink gorilla. Rehab made a new man out of Mr. Monster. Check out myspace.com/xylopholks for more info/tunes.
