 New York, NY January '13  Security guard at a museum.

 Brooklyn, NY  January '13  7th avenue Q/B stop.

 New York, February '13  This guy was making really convincing (and loud) bird-chirp sounds with a piece of scotch tape. He seemed happy and lost and very much like a child.
He said to me: "No job, no nothing..." I imagine him as a kid, somewhere in China, sitting out in a field being taught this trick by his Uncle or someone and how happy he must have been. I'm making this up, of course. He might be from Germany or Connecticut. Also, it's possible that he may have been forced, against his will, to join the local scotch-tape orchestra, you just never know about these things... but this sounds depressing to me. I don't think people should be forced to perform in a scotch-tape orchestra or any orchestra.

Madrid, December '12   

 New York, January '13  I'm biking from now on. I was biking everywhere, then it got cold, now I  spend a lot of time on these metal rectangle things full of people doing what these people are doing, which is... not really that much.

 Randolph, Vt.  December '12   This is not the first time I've been photo- bombed by a goat... but this is the first time I've ever written the sentence "This is not the first time I've been photo- bombed by a Goat".
