Ice Skating!

Thanks for taking this hilarious pic Jason!
I'm a self taught ice skating genius! Well, ok, I'm not that good, in fact, I can't stop without slamming into the wall or throwing myself to the ice. No matter. It doesn't dampen my spirit!
Every Wednesday and Friday at California Park in Chicago. 9:15-10:45. Be there!

One Year Later

I am kicking myself for not taking a redhead portrait of my fam. With the twins adding two more we are up to 6 and one borderline.

Oh Tannenbaum!

Finally, I will be posting a bunch of the medium format images from my recent trip to Europe with my sister.
These are shots from right outside Joop's warehouse in Bergen Op Zoom.

The Elastic Truth

I found this in the alley the other day.
My neighborhood is a trip sometimes. Just now I went outside to walk my dog and clean off my car and someone had cleaned it off for me already! Brushed off the snow and scrapped my windows...WTF!?! Crazy. But, awesome!

Cutie Pie Claradog

Clara is the cutest dog ever. Just a reminder.
We got a feather bed now and it rocks. We can sleep for daaaaaaaaaaays.

If I Were a Boy


(...and rich) I would wear a bunch of this cool Shackleton sh!t from Timberland.
Guy's have some great options for sick winter gear this year and I am sort of jealous. The Timberland line is OK. I'm more psyched that people are giving Shackleton his due.

What the Pho?

Yummy Pho.
Hooptie vans.

Awesome tattoos.

What's not to love here?

LACMA: Vanity Fair



Awesome show at LACMA right now. Vanity Fair has photos from the turn of the last century, who knew?!?

Venice Beach



I love this drawn American outline. The alleys here are lively and populated. The homeless people look like vampive zombies from a theater production, kind of like the clown on the building above...
