NYC Wildlife

Traditional subway rat (a small one) in a Chinese food takeout box at West 4th Street









Same rat, to the left of box








A severed bird's head in front of our Labor Relations building; that can't be a good omen.

The sun also rises

Volleyball!

I play volleyball at least once a week. We usually have to wait around while other games finish before starting ours.

Happy New ... ?

Tickertape & confetti is so much more enjoyable when it isn't 20 degrees out. (Broadway on Broadway)

No. Just no.

I could rant about "muffin-tops", low-rise jeans, and assless women, but it's all been said before.

I hate cicadas

Tiny Dancer

This dog stood on its hind legs and danced for everyone coming out of the coffee shop this morning.

Crapcam goes to the beach!

Robert Moses State Park.
It really was that empty at 8 a.m., but by 2 p.m., when I left, it started to fill up.
Amazing that it's 84 degrees at the shore, when it's 98 degrees in the city.

Crapcam goes to the country

Moo.

Fashion?

Why anyone would think these jeans are a good idea, or attractive, is beyond me.

Big Apple BBQ

Typical NYC street fair scene:
this is at the Big Apple BBQ in Madison Square Park on 6/11/05.

If you're going to be ignorant ...

A picture of nothing from my commute. But I'm
overhearing a conversation between 2 guys arguing that, with few exceptions, basketball team are named after ...

... don't be loud

... cities not states. With one of these exceptions being (the state of) New Orleans.

If you're going to be ignorant, don't be loud.

More Irises

A slight fetish? Well maybe. But they're so purty!

White Iris in rain

At Columbia, in the rain.

Mauve Iris at dawn

From Mr. Romney's yard.

Irises everywhere!

I'm on an Iris kick. There seem to be dozens of different types of irises in bloom on my way to work. This one is in front of my office.
