Uptown 6

Thank you random person, as if there weren't enough signs to direct within the Union sq. subway junction...

Side project

Transatlantic Romantics

That is the blog I began with Aiden.

This is one of the many ways we will include each other on our prospects and endeavors.

This is also how I (and you readers, what few there are) will get a taste of South Africa, as well as a continuation of life here in NY (Br00klyn).

Cab fare

Taking a cab down 5th ave. at night is magical. Especially the stretch along the museum mile.

As does a cabride through times square:

Pay no mind to the fast food venue.

l'iPhone

Greatest social networking device ever. On my way home today, I sat
next to a very curious little boy. He couldn't have been more than
five. He saw me fiddling with my phone. "idea! maybe I have someone to
play tic-tac-toe with, afterall I have an app for that..." so from
Lorimer to Morgan he learned how to play the game. I let him win, and
after a few rounds, he began to strategize. I hope his mother didn't
think I was a sketchball... lol

Entourage: Now on Spike with a side of slander!

Possibly one of my least favorite shows on HBO, Entourage has become a mild ridicule on my morning commutes. Firstly is the image above, which states exactly how I (and most people) feel about Adrian Grenier: Witless, untalented and DUMB!

Then there is this insightful piece of feminist propaganda. It is not slanderous, it is accurate and accentuates not her breasts, but the negative portrayal of woman in male-targeting television.

READ IT!

Sort of...

Sort of kind of... Bway and Nassau?

Central Park

It's been nearly a year since my last Central Park (winter) post. It's still the most beautiful thing one can encounter. Even if it means that you'll slide and fall face-first.

The return of Ana Peru/ PeruANA

She showed her face in Union Square now...

after meeting her work on the Aberdeen/Bushwick ave stop

and again at my home stop of Jefferson ave:

(from a previous post)

I just got yelled at by a drunk man. He spoke of the Belgian Congo and the attacks of the British armada that he endured.

Sass attack: BMA

So... The Brooklyn Museum of Art is free the first of every month. After 6 months of being in Brooklyn, I finally take advantage of this freebee. I took Aiden with me. We ventured through corridors of arts, feminist fixtures (such as this table setting dedicated to Sojourner Truth)
