Whether you’re a fan of J.R.R. Tolkien’s ‘Lord of the Rings’ trilogy, or not.. you’ve gotta appreciate it when someone comes along and creates a marvel quite like this. Patrick Acton is in the process of creating the City of Kings, ‘Minas Tirith’ out of nothing but matchsticks! My jaw dropped in awe when I saw the photo. Take a look for yourself, and click on the photo to check out the rest of the photos. Enjoy!
My goodness… My matches!
This past weekend, I was on my way to Staten Island. When I got to the ferry terminal in Manhattan, I noticed a couple of NYPD officers making fun of a Pigeon that had been walking around them. Wondering why they were making fun of the poor little guy, I decided to take a closer look. When I did, I discovered that he wasn’t walking… he was hopping!
From his 3rd story apartment in Brooklyn!
Peek-a-Boo!
Ashley found this awesome drawing that sums up the Blogging World in the best way possible. If you’re a blogger, or enjoy reading blogs, then you’ll understand the bizarre layout of this photo. The drawing belongs to Randall Moore at xkcd.com.
I present to you, The Blogofractal!
Bill Mitchell created yet another brilliant cartoon. This time, it’s current (and soon to be former in about half an hour) New York State Governor Elliot Spitzer. If you haven’t heard the new, he’s resigning in the midst of allegations of paying for the transportation of a prostitute to see him, and a bunch of other allegations. The cartoon that Bill draws up about the entire situation is brilliant, and I’d like to share it with all of you. Enjoy!
If you missed the actual resignation, I’ve got that for you too. Ready? Set? Go!
I wonder what ‘Client 9’ did with “Kristen” for all that money?
So, now that Spitzer is stepping down by March 17th, you’d think this is all over, right? No way! The American Media would never let that happen! It turns out, that Spitzer’s “call girl” has been identified as Ashley Alexandra Dupre. Was it completely necessary to ‘out’ the girl Spitzer was caught hiring via wiretap? No, I don’t think so. I actually feel terrible for all of the women involved in this whole ‘saga. I feel terrible for Spitzer’s daughters, wife, and entire family. I also feel bad for Ms. Dupre for all of the negative exposure she’s getting.
*sigh*… Such is the American Media. Or, just Media, in general…
Spitzer for President!
This one comes from my friend Alana, on her trip to Israel.
This is the kind of sign we need, here in New York City!
Photo Time is a new column here on the blog, highlighting interesting photos from across the internet. Since this is the first installment of many to come, I thought I would explain how it works. First, I’ll post a photo that was either sent to me or found while browsing the web. Finally, I open up the discussion of the photo to you, leaving comments and your thoughts on the photo. So, without any further interruptions, I give you… Photo Time!
Discuss!
While you’re discussing, take another look at the photo for a second. Doesn’t it make you wanna do this?
Come on… you know you wanna…
