BRUEGER TOLD ME HE WAS GOING TO "TAKE ME OUT" IF I DIDN'T GIVE HIM THE PHOTO CREDIT.

SKATING, APRIL 30th

Things were getting hella heated today as Brueger and I decided to go out like a couple sixteen year olds and skate at 12:30 in the afternoon. We looked like a real couple of slobs.
Brueger goes big, real big, on this concrete wave slab. Or just strait up stalls around all the broken glass.


Not quite a Dave Ruta or an Andre Page ollie but still working on it.

GODFREY'S DEATHPUNCH

This might be one of the funniest things I've ever seen in my life. With a big punching contest going on between Premier Godfrey and Joey Sikora for the top score, Godfrey took a running punch, swivelled to the left and fell with all his weight hitting his face on the arcade game to the left.
You don't have to think about my reaction to Premier Godfrey's deathpunch, just look at Joey Nakus on the back right at two 'o'clock before he took a spill.

APRIL 30th, 2007

Dave Ruta pushed his kid around for a little bit and it was cute and all, then he ollied something as high as my chest and made me feel like I should start wearing leg weights and go on a lettuce and ice chip diet.

I've never been hunting. But that doesnt mean I wouldnt take an animal out to put some food on the table, just not this one, I'm gonna let her go by.

Bill Dye is the only person I know of that can walk into the nicest bar in Manhattan and get the nicest bottle of Champagne for free, Bill Dye is da man!

I managed to squeeze my way into Taj Majal's little hangout room while no one was looking, he was smoking a cigar backstage and had some sort of quaint looking drink. He allowed me to take two pictures of him and I swear it was thee darkest room you ever did see, comparable to taking a picture of someone in a closet. After the photo he gave me some of the best advice I've ever heard about women, then I felt like I was taking up his time and walked out.

I WANT TO MEET NORM FROM CHEERS TONIGHT.


You just can't look to adults anymore the way you used to be able to, these days you have to look at little kid air guitarist's to really see an honest smile.



Take a good look at that shirt and know that everything will be O.K. if you happen to get your hands on a b.b.q. chicken platter from N.Y. Style Eats, Little Frankies phone number, or have the chance to hear Barron Claibornes laugh.

INDIANS GO ON AND GET DUSTED.

Alright, these photo's were taken on a newspaper assignment. I couldnt find the place because it was some small park just south of Atlantic Avenue at 129th or something like that. Wayyy out there! Anyways, some kid was choking on dust and passed out and when I went to take a photo of him a police officer said, "Hey you little shit, keep movin!" That's what he said, can't change a quote up. So I walked through this whole park taking some pics and out of nowhere some kid comes up and dumps red powder all over my head which got all over my camera of course. I was happy to find all the other photo nerds on the other side hiding with their zoom lenses from other papers though, and me walking up DUSTED. I made a point of it not to wash my jacket when I went to go pick up my check as a means for them to say, maybe we should give him a bonus for an indian war assignment. So I got paid decent but they never used the photo's. Maybe next year.




SATURDAY, APRIL 28th

ONE OF THE BEST SKATE SPOTS I'VE SEEN IN A WHILE.

ONE LITTLE WALK TO QUEENS BOULEVARD.

So I decided to carry my camera with me to Queens Blvd, after all THE BEAST was making history, getting his first bank account ever. It was quite a little hour and a half adventure, The O.T.B., Burger King, White Castle, a withdrawal at the bank, a dog fetching Snickers and a styrofoam soccer extravaganza.
We bumped into this dog on the street, I don’t remember his name but his owner had trained him to go and grab her a Snickers, and to top it off she mentioned “I tried to get him to fetch 3 Muskateers but he only get’s snickers.”

The owner of the dog is the woman wearing grey just to it’s right, she also mentioned, “he’s been fetching snickers for eight years,” and that I had, “Made it’s day!”

I thought it was amazing that these kids were playing soccer with a styrofoam box, everyone was getting in on the fun.




Brueger contemplates life and the realization that White Castle advertising is so accurate, “One taste and you’re hooked.”

If you ever bump into someone you know in the parking lot of white Castle you have to be a gentleman and hand over a slider.

Words can’t describe the one handed whole burger in one bite move, it’s TOP NOTCH.

I told her if she put all her weight on that branch she would fall, too bad she didn’t listen to me and took a nasty spill once I started walking again.
I witnessed these woman having the most elaborate argument on how to make a proper “Better than Sex” cake, otherwise known as a B.T.S.

So I lost ten bucks at the O.T.B. the last time I was there I won $123.00.

I thought Brueger was making some kind of crazy business deal that would bring the Dow Jones to it’s knees because he screamed at me, “Gimme some paper, a pen, quick, quick, give it to me!” And then he sat down. Little did I know he was getting a confirmation code for a free whopper from Burger King for answering a survey.

This garbage man was so bummed that there wasn’t much trash, so he just started throwing away garbage cans.

Somehow, the Beast bumped into us at White Castle, and man he was so excited to have finally gotten his first bank account, look at that look!

A WALK TO QUEEN'S BLVD

Only in New York would some of the hottest girls in the world be waiting for the bus in the rain, anywhere else in the world she would have gotten picked up.

We thought it was pretty strange that someone would enjoy Budweiser so much that they would walk it around in a baby carriage, only to leave the little guy all crumpled and stranded on the side of the road.

What can I say, beast dun did it again with another surpising move this spring, a big day getting his very first bank account.

When it’s raining you certainly don’t wear your dress shoes.

What do you think Santa Claus does in the off season, he goes to Alpha Donuts and eats a cruller.

FRIDAY AT THE END OF APRIL

I'M EXCITED ABOUT ANYTHING IN PRINT.

I was recently lucky enough to have a collection of some photographs in the exclusive EJECT MAGAZINE! I know that the intro has some quotations problems and "class," should be spelled "glass." To check out the progress at Eject check their website, www.ejectmagazine.com....... Also if anyone wants to send major Mr. Burns type donations for the purchase of a high quality printer I am accepting.
