New York Shitty Slide Show Du Jour: Marathon

I have a confession to make: I cringe when the New York City Marathon darkens my doorstep. If people want to run, so be it. I simply don’t like it interfering with my peregrinations. In any case, here are a handful of shots (and a bit of video footage) of today’s marathon from the Garden Spot of the Universe. Enjoy!

New York Shitty Photos Du Jour: Bushwick Place Carbeque

Today yours truly finally felt well enough to take a walk. A five hour walk to be precise. To this end I bundled up, braved the brisk weather and marched bravely forward to see the best (and worst) that north Brooklyn has to offer.

It was at Bushwick Place and Boerum Street that I stumbled upon this hot mess of a carbeque.

Here’s another view.

Toasty!

While not on par with the India Street carbeque (which is yours truly’s all time favorite) or this one from Ellery Street (which sported clown paraphenalia in the trunk) this specimen is compelling in its own way. Why, you ask? Very simple: while this ride sports no tires whatsoever on its axels…

they were rather abundant nonetheless.

Fascinating.

While not as elaborate or elegant as most of the material I feature on this site I am pretty jazzed about the direction this person’s work is taking. What can I say? As a child my idea of fun was reading the dictionary!
