Weekly Photo Challenge: Slogan



I have a couple this week.

I'm of course on my Stefan Sagmeister kick this week (I'm even having dreams about him, where he tells me to not be scared to do the things I want to do. It's nice) and he has a whole new book of slogans to choose from! Here is one half of the slogan "Everybody thinks...they are right" from the inside of his show at Deitch Projects in Soho. In his lecture, he said he found that this was the reason for most conflict in the world. Good point, I think.

And then after I left his exhibit, there was this charming slogan on a telephone pole, which I hope you will appreciate.

My new desktop picture



A designer called Truth (I think) put this on NYC subway cars to replace the real ones. Awesome.

Check out the lecture by Stefan Sagmeister that references this, and general happiness. I just saw Sagmeister speak tonight and am supremely inspired. I love him.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Lychnobite



I'm coming in late on this--it was supposed to be posted on Friday, but I was sick this week, so please forgive my tardiness.

I searched and searched all week for a goth person on the street, or maybe a night-time subway driver who would let me take their picture, but then my friend sent me a You Tube video of The Count (my first exposure to anyone who only toiled at night), so I took a pic of that.

Check out the other entries, starting with Dave's. His has a good story.

The Freeze



This is old. I took this one night when I was living in Jersey. It was a magical freeze in December. Icicles were everywhere.

It's Home



My stop on the G, Bedford-Nostrand. I like the way the lines intersect in this photo.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Hazard

My friend Dave and his pals have a weekly photo challenge I've decided to crash. This week's subject was "hazard." And my response--an urban duke of exactly that, but this one's all hopped up on the Lord.



Hazard: The guy who drives this car, souped up on Jesus

I thought Six Flags was a "family" park

This and Viagra covered on insurance, but no sex ed in schools and birth control pills NOT covered on insurance = now that's "family values," folks!
