Riding Dirrty

On an unseasonably warm day, a lot of motorcycles seem to come out of the garages and zoom around the corners of the Village. I liked the way she worked her heels around the foot pegs.

East Village Cheese

If you are in desperate need of some cheese then East Village Cheese is the place to go.

Gold-Digging With Pride

A pile of books stacked near the Strand. Presumably this is a pile that couldn't be resold. However, I'm happy to see they do some things in Texas with a sense of pride. It's really hard to know what goes on with those girls from Dallas, but I'm generally OK as long as they're totally upfront about it. Discuss amongst yourselves.

Friendly Advice

Some solid advice for a rainy Sunday. Good font choice too.

I've been appreciating some English punk from the late 70s this past week. Here's "Typical Girls" by the Slits, one of my faves. I love the way the lead singer dances and red is always a good color for a jacket.

Ghost Dog

I really don't understand dogs. Or the people who own them. But whatever floats their boat. It seems exceptionally weird to me that you would just leave your dog unattended tied up to a post outside in a city like New York.

Movies at the Movies

Last night on 12th Street at 11PM. A movie being filmed on the street outside of Cinema Village.

Cinema Village is the theater for the March 27th opening of Guest of Cindy Sherman!

18 Miles of Books

The Strand is the largest bookstore in New York City. It's huge and I love going there. They claim that there are 18 miles of books scattered across several floors.

I don't think anyone has ever taken the time to measure how many miles of florescent lights there are hanging from the ceiling. Any guesses?

Manhattan Street Still Life #2

Chairs, curbside.  The stiff wooden straight-backed model with the empty seat is in the lead.
