Amadou Diallo Mural, Bronx
(September 24) Today I had to go up to the Bronx in the neighborhood of the Amadou Diallo mural. On the way, I spotted several other murals in the area.
The 6 rolling away from Whitlock Ave.
It’s just about the end for both flowers and butterflies.
Something to do with manatees and killer sphinxes
This one on the side of a bodega is interesting…
Anyone know what this is?

And then I was off to Central Park to see David Blaine.
Riding the F Train Home
(September 22) One night on the way home from Bushwick…
Fishy mosaic
Wavy mosaic
Ralph should probably give it up.
Post-Gennaro in Gowanus
(September 21) On the way home from the San Gennaro Festival, I took some shots as best I could of the new work going on inside a fenced in area on President St.
My father had one just like this, if I remember correctly.
Everything but the Impala is fair game in here.
Surely no one has gone barefoot here and lived.
Protected by sniper fire.
“The Egg Man” lives on my block.
The 2008 San Gennaro Festival
(September 21) Pete called and said “I’m in Little Italy, come meet me.”
The neighborhood doesn’t like it. You think?
Drown The Clown, a regular at this festival.
There’s a reason it’s called a feast.
Lots of food. Lots of fried food.
Elmo and Cookie Monster learned the hard way, nobody likes a snitch.
It was packed with food and people.
It’s always strange to see a Ferris Wheel on a city street.
Around all this food, Pete is truly loving life.
Brought to you by, High Fructose Corn Syrup…
… fried food, …
… and some Italian guys.
Time to leave Little Italy.
Oh, and I didn’t know Tony had a gift shop. Invoking the Pseudoreal Rule of Gift Shops, thus ends the 2008 Feast of San Gennaro Festival.
Software Freedom Day, 2008
(September 20) Dragged myself to Software Freedom Day Party at Limewire, having pitched it all week to various parties. A few hours walking around with my bad back was enough, but it was well worth going.
The rooftop at Limewire is suh-weet,
The view ain’t too shabby either,
Met some new interesting people, like Paul Garrin,
Saw familiar interesting people, like Forest Mars and Sunny Dubey,
Heard Eben Moglen speak,
Saw friends, like Tony_M, (right)
I finally “met” people I already knew, like Dave Williams,
Took in more of the view,
And finally saw the bathrooms Jay Sulzburger spoke so avidly of.
