Well, you think this shot is from movie, but actually . . . it's from the future.

Enrique 1990-2011

He's gone now, but there was no better.

Blue Sky

2011-11-01T04:52:00.000-07:00

In life, you would hope for some patches of blue sky, but in Upstate New York, they are always between some nice thick gloom.

Mundo

Wasn't that long ago we didn't know where the hell we were.

Oh well . . .

Orson

When I'm feeling down, and things just aren't going my way, I think of Orson, and it all seems better, but not as great as Orson.

340 Flushing is still there.

It's still there. Google Earth got it wrong if you type in the address. You have to "walk" down Classon, and turn a corner . . . it's a sculpture studio. Did you know . . . sculptor, did you know?

Earth in the Balance

2011-01-09T19:50:00.000-08:00

Anyway . . . I think this painting has Paganism and Christianity holding the Earth between them . . . and she's dead.

A tale of a car gone wrong

Okay, a brief aside here . . . the sublime 1987 Jaguar XJ6, the brand new Jaguar XJ, and a 2007 Buick something . . . which two look like each other, which looks like something?

We can work this into Jim Cover, too.

Glyph Ideas

2010-10-16T20:42:00.000-07:00

We could have the book with glyphs all over, b/w images that tie into the story, kid on bike, camaro, canoe, old house, lake, crashed bus, world trade center, corsica, the ship, the stereo speakers, etc.

(wobbly examples here)

None More Black

How about this None More Black cover? I tried to make the symbol bigger but couldn't figure that out this morning.
