Welcome to post number 2,222! That’s a lot of whining to wade through. The past couple of days have been about advances in software understanding. That is, I’ve found out a couple of things I could do with the computer that I never knew how to do before. Does more choice equal more things made?… Continue Reading

Snow and more…
Some how the work day careens by and there’s little time for the writing part. On the good news front, it looks like ICP will be showing David Wojnarowicz’s video, A Fire in My Belly in some capacity within the next week. As soon as there is some sort of official statement about that, I’ll… Continue Reading
Go and Look…
Art viewing on the Lower East Side. Not so inspiring, I must say. It seems that the time at which people were down there trying to do something different has pretty much passed, and the current vibe is smaller shops looking forward to the time when they become bigger shops. My companion remarked “the next… Continue Reading
Give out an answer or two…
I have a formspring account and I have to admit to being lax about using it. So I thought I would try to catch up on some of the questions that have cropped up over there, by answering them here. Hopefully over the next couple of weeks I’ll get caught up and then will feel… Continue Reading

Last night was one of those last outbursts of New York street life where people go back to competing for outdoor tables, forgetting that just a… Continue Reading
Grubby…
That’s how I feel right now: grubby. Like my every crevice contains a bit vaguely greasy crud. Some of it is internal, as I have something that may be a cold, or may not be, but which has definitely brought on scratchy throat and post nasal drip. Some of it is spiritual as I attempt… Continue Reading
Arrested
You get out what you put in. Garbage in Garbage out. Read enough junk and you’ll write junk. Truisms, but there you have ‘em. I’ve been scrolling and scanning through pages of articles and websites online and most of the writing is thrown together with one eye on the clock and one eye on Google… Continue Reading
We are embarrassed again…
Big drawing day yesterday, most of it accomplished while R, the savvy intern, was sitting at the computer scanning slides from decades ago. While I usually like solitude for working, I was surprised to see how much I was able to focus with the right person there. There was something comforting in knowing that a… Continue Reading
