On one of the charms of New York
Last night, after my board meeting, I met up with Vivian for drinks. We ended up at this hold-in-the-wall dumpling house in K-Town called Mandoo. Because of the crowd, we ended up sharing a table with a German tourist and his Spanish girlfriend ( Read more... ) -
First real publishing credit!
As some of you know, I spent a good part of the late winter and early spring working on Stacy LoAlbo's (of Incogneeto) book of vintage accessories. Several hundred photos, a thousand+ pieces, and a baker's-dozen-or-so sessions later, the book is on track to be published in December ( Read more... ) -
Airbender Gripe
[disclaimer: I've had a couple of bad, stressful days. So I'm going to vent about something completely irrelevant in general.]
So. Avatar: The Last Airbender. Never actually watched the show. Seen a few clips. Seems cute enough. For a fantasy show claiming to base its combative styles on actual, well-known systems of kung-fu, it's pretty ( Read more... ) -
The Mens of CPB
Last winter, we did a shoot at the house for some calendar that hasn't materialized yet. It turns out we had four photographers in the house. I stuck to simple shots against the backdrop with my ringflash.
Pictures of the ladies are forthcoming. In the meantime, here are two of the mens!

Can you guess what this is? (Not my photo)
I didn't take this. I found this on one of the LJ photography communities. I think it's neat. :)

Turner Classic Movies Young FIlmComposer Submission - 2004
In the summer before I finished 24 Hours Later, I took some time to submit a piece for the TCM Young FilmComposer competition, which was held annually through 2007.
I'll be the first to admit that my piece wasn't stellar - but goddammit, it was more interesting than the winning pieces from previous years.
Overwrought? Perhaps. Interesting? -
Dear Rutgers students
Please stop inquiring about a position that the job posting makes clear that you will not be considered for. Calling me and trying to argue your way into an interview will not impress me. In fact, it may just annoy me. I have many other things to do today besides tell biology, economics, and electrical engineering majors why they're not ( Read more... ) -
Quote of the day - Communists vs Fascists
"A communist is just a fascist without a sense of fashion."

General Tso, Beef & Broccoli, and Chop Suey = Food for Whitey ;)
I grew up in a Chinese restaurant where my mother was waitress/hostess/manager. I spent many days after school and during the summer there, playing outside in the Texas heat on a concrete apron, drinking tons of soda and iced tea, and eating huge amounts of Chinese food made for white people ( Read more... )
