Whitney and I are great friends, whenever we get together it’s literally non stop laughter. Haha. I love visiting her in Philly and just getting to hang out and not know anyone else except her. So nice. Well like in New York, I eat when I’m in Philly, oftentimes at this diner right around the corner from Whitney’s house. Haha. A very funny place with toothless waitresses and a boss that is even more disgruntled than the poorly treated staff. It’s always a good time.
This time I got a Reuben Sandwich, first time ever; I hate sauerkraut, a lot. I didn’t mind it on this sandwich though..sandwiches are good. Anyway, here are some pictures from that day; the pictures include one of my favorite photos of myself, ever. Thanks Whitney.
because my mouth was watering.
because sometimes people are just out of focus.
because that sandwich was what the doctor ordered.
because I like everything about this picture.
because sometimes cheap onion rings aren't that bad..
because that pickle was so juicy!
whitney liked the pickle too.
because the second half of the Reuben had more sauerkraut than I could stomach.
Hmm, I was sitting at my desk trying to recall how I cam across Johan’s work and I really can’t remember at all, which is odd since usually after about 5 minutes I can figure it out..anyway.. I love his work, a lot. I love the grainyness, and the misty look, the colors and sometimes the lack thereof. I don’t know what it is but for some reason I find myself drawn to his work…it’s honest, it’s there…if that makes any sense.. All of his projects are awesome. Such great work..
I can’t stop staring at it..I’ll post a few photos below from his site, which are you drawn to?
from the project titled "Shanghai"

Chris moved into the apartment awhile ago. I like Chris, though he is a weirdo. Last night Chris got great news; I’m happy for him. A few weeks ago Chris accompanied me to a birthday party at which I was shooting pictures. We had a good time. Chris drank a lot before he got there and a decent amount while there. He is kinda gangsta, but not as much as I am, obviously. Here are some photos from our trip to the diner that is right around the corner.
because he let partying get the best of him.
meet Chris.
because a burger and fries was what the doctor ordered.
because I was hungry like the wolf.
after the burger and fries he was out like a light.
The Atlantic-Pacific stop, which has about 10 million visitors each day in Brooklyn, is being bought off by a major English bank. It would be called Barclay’s Center after the bank’s name (Barclays) which would give the MTA $200,000 for the next 20 years. This is the step the MTA is taking to deal with the budget problems they are going through which passes $1 billion.
Whatever the case may be, this shit is whack. A couple of years ago we had this huge surplus and now since people can’t run it right they have a huge deficit to deal with and have to sell out a station that the public uses to a bank in order to save their ass.
I saw this video just a little while ago and oh man, it made me feel sick to my stomach. Joe Jackson is a monster, not a scary monster that hides in the closet to scare children, no, but a monster that hides in the closet to scare his own children and sell them off to the highest bidder. This video shows what most people already believed after seeing the Jackson 5 movie so long ago. He’s a devil, a conniving jackal and someone needs to call him on it. That press conference was so selfish..too think I thought only Gary Coleman had parents that would literally leave him out to dry for a quick buck…psh, this motherfucker held a fuckin’ press conference.
Somebody in the audience, a reporter, a passerby, someone…should have run up and PUNCHED HIM IN THE FUCKING MOUTH while he was up there talking all that bullshit. I mean, right in the fuckin’ mouth; people can be such assholes.
Okay, so yeah, Ciara is hot, really hot. This cover is bangin. Everything about it is perfect from the background color choice to the black and white bathing suit, to the fishnets! damn! haha. The belt, the camera, the hair, everything, everything everything.
I have to admit that I was never really a fan of Ciara’s until I met her in person and then I heard her song called “Promise”; this all happened a couple of months ago. Haha, mad late on the song, I know, I’ve been told. LOL.
In perfect she is statuesque and absolutely beautiful. I had the pleasure of meeting her at an event for the Art of Elysium, a charity organization that helps get celebrities and artists, etc into hospitals with chronically ill children who cannot leave. It’s an awesome organization and I plan to volunteer for them in the very near future.
Oh man, now I’m checking out the Rap Up Mag website which I think is pretty awesome as well. Check it out! I plan to email them and see if they can send me an issue to review for the site, either the current or the next issue.
Oh man, I don’t even know what to say…this is just way more than I expected in one day..
I made an earlier post about his cardiac arrest…well apparentlyit was more than his body could handle as the paramedics were unable to revive him..i’m tearing up..
Oh man, just so sad, so much life left in him…a tour, kids, damn..
So I just read that Micheal Jackson was rushed to the hospital by ambulance after he was believed to have suffered from a heart attack in his Los Angeles home…this is awful.
A family member was quoted as stating that Michael was in pretty bad shape. Oh gosh, I hope the king of pop is alright. Please.
Farrah Fawcett died today at Saint John’s Health Center in Santa Monica, California. She had been battling rectal cancer since 2006. Gosh, cancer so scary and it attacks anyone. sighs.
Thinking about Farrah Fawcett…
Unlike many, my first experience with Farrah did not come from the 1976 television show, Charlie’s Angels, where she played the character Jill Munroe, and was nominated for a Golden Globe in the Best Actress category. NOPE! I saw her for the first time in a made for tv movie called “The Burning Bed”, I remember watching it with my mom and brother. Ha, my mom loved Farrah, as did/do many. The movie was about a battered Dansville, Michigan housewife, named Francine Hughes who after many many years of spousal abuse, in a fit of insanity, set her husband aflame while he slept. I remember when she just tells the kids to just get their coats on and wait outside. She was nominated for both an Emmy and a Golden Globe that year, 1984. Unbeknownst to me until right now, The Burning Bed is based off a non-fiction book by Faith McNulty…dang, that shit really happened. Abuse is scary, but 13 years of it is scary as shit.
Farrah Fawcett had her ups and downs like everyone else, she was a cool lady.
She is known for her bombass hair, her best selling poster, which I’m sure still hold some kind of record, her marriage to the 6 million dollar man, and of course, Charlie’s Angels.
Speaking of Charlie’s Angels, I wonder if Drew, Cameron, and Lucy will release any statements about this loss, it’d be nice.
I don’t know this woman from anyone else, but I feel so bad for her for some reason…I plan to not only rent “The Burning Bed” soon, but also find a place to get/watch the documentary she and her friend, Alana Stewart made about her cancer called Farrah’s Story.
