Richard’s Forewards

By hugh | Published: February 28, 2009

A cousin in California has been sending out forewarded emails from the internet and other friends of his for years of left news, opinion, and commentary. Some of it leans libertarian, some leans socialist, and some might reflect a conservative talking point in good light. Friends reading his emails knew the Iraq invasion would stir [...]

Another City Beautiful Project: 125th Street Pier

By hugh | Published: February 25, 2009

The development talked about here is mostly done. Riding your bike around down by the Hudson River when it’s still this cold is kind of insane and lonely. Ferries are supposed to service this pier but I don’t know if it’s happening yet. I’m not seeing New Jersey hopping on a boat to hit up [...]

I learned how to play ping pong on a permanent metal table bolted on a deck in the park behind my house. At night, the sprinkers would leave puddles of water on the table causing the table top to rust and blister. When it got bad enough, a new sheet of metal would be installed [...]

Jimmy Stewart, Duke Ellington

By hugh | Published: February 2, 2009

I really like this shot and the fifties hipster text. That’s a crazy name for a crazy lawyer. Hey man, you’re not splitting the scene are ya? I mean, you’re not cutting out? From Otto Preminger’s Anatomy of a Murder… Lee Remick here too.
