This clarinet player had set up shop next to the hospital (about two blocks from the boardwalk) & was nice enough to let me photograph him while he played. I didn’t really get why he was playing where he was - it was a very deserted street, I sort of felt like we were in an alley between the hospital & a casino…I didn’t see another person until I got back onto a main drag. Oh, well.

Last week I visited Atlantic City with some relatives & took a walk on the beach while they went shopping. I hope to be back soon, I’d really like to explore more of the city. Road trip, anyone?

I wish you were allowed to photograph people in the casinos. I had some ideas for a project but the whole “you’ll be arrested for sure if you even try” thing is a bit of a deterrent.

I just got the biggest urge to play some of the old Commodore 64 games I played as a kid.

Anyone else have Dream House & A Nightmare on Elm Street?

At first glance this website is a bit insane, but when you watch the little “interviews” this guy has with his wife post-movie, where she explains why she is literally sobbing by the end of Star Wars, it’s actually pretty funny.

“During World War II the Army Corps of Engineers needed to hide the Lockheed Burbank Aircraft Plant to protect it from a Japanese air attack. They covered it with camouflage netting and trompe l’oeil to make it look like a rural subdivision from the air.”

This is neat.

The future of air travel?

The Aircruise: interesting new way to travel, as long as you’re not in a rush or don’t mind spending some bucks (I’m guessing - this looks a trifle expensive).

Gonna try to avoid sleep until 10. I was originally going to do a power nap but I got involved in a Gilmore Girls repeat (I so love being home from work on a weekday - best TV) & it is now officially too late for a nap.

Is that bad?

But seriously, it’s too late for a nap, but still too early for serious full-night sleeping.

Conundrum!

Pop Rocks & Ring Pops, baby. Pop Rocks & Ring Pops.

There’s a chance I am regressing.
