brb outside : bike ride to red hook

oh hay y'all. i've been forgetting to take my camera with me on my bike rides, but i finally remembered today. here are a few pics from today's journey to red hook.

the red hook waterfront is full of converted warehouses from brooklyn's industrial past. at the end of van brunt street (across from the fairway) is the beard street warehouse. it was a really cool collection of artists' studios and living spaces.

the remnants of an old-timey cable-car system run throughout these warehouses. there are even some old left over cars behind the fairway.

brix + trax.

this guy was really awesome. some artists were just hanging out in there...working and welding and shit. it looked like an ok life.

on my way home, i stopped in and had lunch at baked on van brunt st. it was really cool inside, lots of orange, and delicious to boot!

ok that's all!

idea for my new bike?

AP, PARIS - Parisians and tourists, relax. That goofy looking tricycle equipped with loads of high-tech equipment roaming the streets is NOT some mad scientist's invention on the rampage.

The three-wheeler is a sight with its long pole holding nine cameras, a GPS, a computer and a generator. But the contraption tooling around the French capital needs all that gear to do its job — adding three-dimensional images to Google's Street View Maps.

The U.S. company has hired two young cyclists to ride through gardens, historical sites and other pedestrian-only areas on the device to take thousands of digital photos.

new clothes

armor jeans for you

shit show

former memphis mayor Herenton who retired in July has now decided that he wants to enter the special election that is being held to pick the new mayor.

thats right. mayor retires in the middle of his term, mayor enters race to become mayor.

this is crazy. no city deserves this kind of treatment, not even cleveland.



also. he still plans to run for district 9 congressman, and his campaign slogan is "keep it real."
ugh.

just let your soul glo
