I started drawing this guy just as he decided to walk away. Literally. I started with the brim of his cap and then, after being there for a half hour, he left.  >_<  So, he’s from memory and everything else is my interpretation of what was in front of me.

Spotted this last night on the way home. I always find it amusing to see public-facing technology crap out. I’m so used to it happening to me, you see.

Very authentic setting–but it’s Gilbert and Sullivan, so maybe not that much?

First real snow of 2012 for #NYC makes the view outside my bedroom window seem a little nicer…., a photo by thepetecom on Flickr.

The winter of 2011-2012 is definitely a weird one for NYC, what with the first snow back in October and temperatures only really dropping to normal levels in late December and January and finally second snow well into the second half of January. What’s up Mother Nature?

Snapped this just as my train was arriving so I couldn’t get a cleaner shot. The rat was lying in a stream of flowing water that ran down the length of the track. Sad little guy. Now he will be remembered. Kinda.

At least it’ll be warming up a bit by the weekend. Don’t let the door hit you in the ass on your way out, winter!
