Yesterday was Friday the 13th, which of course meant that I spent most of the day queued up to get a new tattoo at Daredevil down on Ludlow Street (why am I saying down when geographically it’s “up” from where I am right now?). They’ve definitely refined the process from the first times I went… Continue Reading

Just so you know…
I’m still making pictures pretty much every day. Whether they get posted online is another question. Usually that doesn’t happen because I have a block about writing . Silly I know, but I have some resistance to this turning purely into a photo blog, since these images rarely have enough going on to stand alone…. Continue Reading
I almost forgot…
Today is my blogiversary. Seven years ago I began complaining here about digital culture, and I’m still a crabby guy. Today it’s a bit harder to know what to write about, and to make the time to do it. I’m happy for the community it’s brought me and the many ways it’s helped me stretch… Continue Reading
Whither Whether Wither Weather…
Buzzing distractions once again. And it’s gone back to cold, which tends to make me pensive. I did have a lovely Monday shopping trip with Lolita, after an initial communication breakdown. Twitter saved us from missing each other entirely. I’ve been making my way through Thomas Mallon’s A Book of One’s Own, which offers the… Continue Reading
Polybloggering, or an open letter to my livejournal account…
LiveJournal, it’s time for me to come clean: I’ve been cheating on you. Well not exactly cheating, but I have been seeing other sites. You know I’ve got a wandering eye, and just like it was with AOL chatrooms, and Yahoo! groups, and my Earthlink homepage, it couldn’t be just you and me for ever… Continue Reading
If man is five then the devil is Six…
As of today I’ve been doing this for six years. Happy blogday to me. This forum has allowed me to do something that I’ve tried to do with limited success over the years: reflect on my life in writing. As well it’s allowed me to return to photography and more recently, a kind of daily… Continue Reading
Click and come see me…
Steps had to be taken to protect the art in Union Square from the rain. Some folks on my frlist have been migrating to dreamscape or dreamworks or whatever it is. Which is all well and good, they seem like a nice company and all, but I’m the owner of a permanent membership here at… Continue Reading
Frightful…
Today has had just the kind of weather I hate, the kind that results in two foot wide puddles of soupy slush at every New York corner, the kind that makes all forward motion on the street a series of twists and flinches to avoid the chill wind, the kind that makes you feel ungracious… Continue Reading
I am make me happy all by lonesome, yes…
I’m scattered in many things, and much of what I do, I do unevenly. My projects get done bit by bit with gaps in between. Thus with my website. I put it up a couple of years ago using the BlueHost’s proprietary site building software, so when my hosting agreement with them expired unexpectedly, all… Continue Reading
Today is the fifth anniversary of the creation of this journal. Seeing the date approaching, I’ve been trying to figure out some glamorous, clever way of marking it. No such luck. So here are five lists of five things: Five most recent things I’ve bought on iTunes: Suicide: First album Various Artists: New York No… Continue Reading
