The Fiends are Leaning...

Once the dope fiend's body passes a ninety-degree angle, they sink back into the center of the earth. Okay, maybe they just sink back into whatever hole, or staircase they crawled out of. Daylight fiends make the best specimens,love the transients taking note.

Signs that it is TIME TO GRIND: Recessionary Tactics

As a rule, I NEVER take pictures of the homeless, I'd rather exploit most other sects of society (who have something to lose, and aren't on their last legs) for my creative dealings. Dude was so out of it, that he just wandered into the frame (to relieve himself on this vacated Public Library across from MoMA, naturally) while i snapped the photo. What can ya do? Everybody is a smug hypocrite some of the time. Also, i think it made for a much better picture. It's my birthday, indulge me.

Touching Back Down in Old New York...

Back from a spell in the Sierra Madres and some time in the Mountains of Colorado, I am rejuvenated. Touching down into Manhattan i am strangely invigorated by the signs of New York fast becoming the city i once loved - the city of recession and angst i once knew and always missed. Just like the rest, NY got High on free-money and eager to build bigger, better and more than the rest, now I see New York City's signs of duress in the form of closed stores, astronomical sales and despondent faces. A new President is a sign of hope (to many), but there is little than be done for the inevitable decline of abundant (illusions) of prosperity in New York - much moreso in some of the lands I have seen in my absence.



New York is about to get a little uglier than some have known it to be in the recent past, a habitat known-well by my merry band of miscreant friends and native associates. Guard your grill, stay sharp and don't bat an eye. Or, you could just hightail it back to the suburbs, which I would recommend to the out-a-town crowd...


I am back in NEW YORK, about to get into the muck and grind it out with the rest of 'em. Let's weed-out the weaklings, so that those who fly-high shall prosper and shine...
