I did it. I got an iPad.

It’s expensive. It’s typical Apple style hype (but is very well backed up, unlike the iPhone). It’s pretty groundbreaking. Heck, it’s just pretty. And pretty useful.

Peter and the Wolf and some short thoughts before bed

Since it was free, I decided to attempt to navigate the Financial District (evil named non-numbered streets!) to see Neil Gaiman (one of my favorite authors ever!) do a reading of Peter and the Wolf, with the Knickerbocker Chamber Orchestra. First event I’d gone to with him there, and I figured I could use a [...]

The song explains so much. My words confuse you My eyes don’t move a blink Cause it’s easier sometimes Not to be sincere Somehow I make you believe Believe When I speak I cross my fingers Will you know you’ve been deceived? I find a need to be the demon A demon cannot be hurt [...]

Amanda Palmer in NYC

The date was June 5, 2009. Going back through my archives, I remember admitting that I had a growing obsession with Miss Amanda Palmer in late February (post here). 3 months before I got to see this force of nature in person. Behind a crowd that was 5-7 people deep. My best friend and I [...]
