END ROAD WORK

with my fellow radio personality leon of the trees now in venice (here i do not mean CA), i am left all alone in our north american efforts to curb road work. here youll see my efforts on the streets of brooklyn, ny. ill leave leon to cover all points european. all we are saying is 'leave the roads in severe disrepair!'

additionally, youll note, im introducing a new campaign: NO STANDING ANYTIME. remain seated at all costs!

and please dont forget our long standing efforts to FREE LEAF MULCH, which has been unjustly held in captivity for far too long.

thanks to loyal reader melina g-a., for although im not sure she was trying to hail a cab at the time, nonetheless delivered to me the best high five of the season. the scenario had g-a. on the street ... our eyes making the eyes of recognition ... g-a. hustling beyond the curb to meet me ... then making smaktastic contact with my outstretched right hand with hers. best yet, not a word was uttered before or during. only my whisper-yell of 'yesssssssssssss' afterwards. pure unadulterated smaktown. thanks melina, for making a guys sunday.

the conversation before i walked into the wall

courtney: 'craig, did i ever tell you that when i lived in LA i had a boyfriend named craig and he looked exactly like you?'

one: 'no. did i ever tell you that i used to live in LA and we used to date?'

broadway @ 82nd

combing your hair with a Metrocard

feels good!

aft-thought on the previous blog-post

maybe i thought it said "the algorithm killed jesus," in which case itd be a billboard placed by the romans and jews (perhaps even pontius pilate himself) in an attempt to exonerate themselves of the execution of christ lord our king, jesus of nazareth.

so many people make billboards these days its really hard to know :(

nazi propaganda or search engine ad?

the first time i saw this ask.com billboard i mistakenly thought it read "the algorithm killed jews." im not sure why as its quite a jump from jeeves to jews but ¡wow! is what i thought in my head out loud. until i got closer. but still when i pass it, i wind up thinking about my original misreading and how this billboard was placed here by the nazis in an effort to escape responsibility years after the holocaust. and wouldnt that just be their style!?! and what a poor excuse for genocide it really is!?! and do the nazis seriously think im that dumb!?!

she said that

my grief,
was her spoon,
feeding her,
her eternity.
