Educational

The menu had a two page "history of the mayan people" that was all too engrossing.

Mexico^2

Mama Mexico at 102nd and Broadway. Imagine if all the stereotypes about Mexico were condensed into a restaurant in Manhattan and turned up to 11.

Breezy

Nice weather day. Central Park at West 86

Taster's choice

Vintage at 92nd and Broadway.

Alphaville

Houston and Varrick - a store that sells vintage/collector items from the 60s and 70s. Garbage pail kids are awesome.

Yeehaw

Jamie and Allison. Party for ex-Texans living in new york at 51st and 6th. I didn't arrive early enough to see the bbq get shut down :(

Chewing gum

So learning to rollerblade in Manhattan is ~~a lot of fun~~very scary. I tried to take this while rolling into impending doom. An artist is painting all the chewing gum on the sidewalk in front of this building gold while playing sounds of people chewing gum. Where? Can't remember - somewhere in midtown near 36th and 8th.

Apple martini

Lisa and Jonk at bar 89

@bar 89

The translucent bathrooms were pretty cool.

Mindfreak

I hate this guy

Danskin

I thought they were just sports attire.

@Temple

I'm surprised this picture came out as well as it did seeing how I had to time my camera click with the strobe light.

Risk

Lucky Besson

I've got my phone back! The taxi driver was kind enough to call a friend from my contact list -- thanks brian -- and get me his contact info. Now to sit on hold with Cingular to get it re-activated.

Dark till tuesday

I've lost my cell phone. Probably somewhere between avalon or the taxi ride back to my apartment. New RAZR black should be here by Wednesday 13th. Stay tuned!
