[ranonranonarat]

all of us???listen son,being in my 40ies my body is in perfect shape,women on the streets turning their heads,thinking "wow,what a rocket!",compared to other posters,i dont have to get up 3 times a night for a pee(or-,even worse-in a pub),so no need for me being sad.but tell me more of your office life,what politics do you mean?spending 3 hours with the copymachine doesnt sound exciting at all.

ROCKET. HAHA.

me, i am the over-worked and underpaid intern picking up calls from nasty people and getting yelled at, for what reason i do not know. its scapegoat-like and i get to learn a bit here and there but its definitely nowhere as exciting as selling redwing boots.

/end of rant

zissou: that is a kickass pair of KMWs there. info? must spread..

relativity: the mango looks fucking amazing. theres something great about tropical fruits that i love.

[DoitsuJin]

exciting?ha,the grown man who is in need of a proper boot and can appreciate a good service is the perfect customer,but you also have to deal with 20year old nancy fashionboys with snobbiesh attitude,who thinks an engineer looks the biz with his ass tight denim-leggings,and when trying them on he starts to whine cause its too uncomfortable for his tender sissy feet,which are socialized to cheap made sneakers since he learned to walk.

Went for a drive to the local Toys R Us to get some stuff for Christmas presents...

Grey Autumn day in the Midlands.

But Tommy seemed happy enough to be going to a toy store.

Got back to do some Halloween decorating, ready for the millions of trick or treaters.

Quick snap of yours truly.

And my PBJ 005's.

According to Tommy, we have to have a "Halloween wrestling challenge" later.

Or my wife might turn me into a frog.

Happy Halloween guy and girls.

A little smattering of what my jeans were doing in America for a week and a half:

Brussels airport. 7am.

Funny part was that I went through this whole rigamaroll to find an ATM because I didn't have any cash. I finally got some (after having to go back through security), ordered my shit and handed the woman a 50 Euro note, to which she got all flabbergasted because she didn't have change, because everyone pays with plastic. It didn't even occur to me that I could use plastic! Not a cash-only economy? Whaaat?

Yep, guess I've gotten used to the developing world.

Seriously though, I almost cried with happiness at beer with flavor.

Pizza with LandoCal. He can attest to how excited I was about the food and drink.

LandoCal: willing to drink a PBR because he has the option of drinking good beer on the daily. dkatz: making sweet sweet mouth-love to a pale ale

New York: has culture. And bizarreness.

In NYC for a conference. View from the first day's location

Once again... can you tell what I was most excited about for being in America?

Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA and Raison d'Etre. The 90 minute's a little too full, Belgian-yeasty and herby for my IPA taste (even for an Imperial), and the Raison was wayyy sweet, but I enjoyed the shit outta them nonetheless.

(also brought a bottle of North Coast Brewery's Brother Thelonious back with me... stoked to drink that!)

CMJ music festival. Lily & The Parlour Trcks: fucking RAD. And babes. Pretty sure Lily was mad eye-sexin' me in this pic. A guy can dream...

Got in the mail

Enjoying a last bit of America on my last afternoon in New Jersey

Apparently the sandwich was called...

and Back to dirty dirty Kampala

...but at least I had a Halloween party to welcome me. With a good friend in a pretty impressive Avatar costume.

Today, running a friend around to do some errands on Nasser Road (where all the print shops are). Quiet on a Sunday.

And back home.

Off to Arua tomorrow. Where I expect these jeans to travel with me for the next couple weeks

For the back half of last week we disappeared up North to Yorkshire, in the North East. THis has a gaggle of small towns that were popular in the victorian era, still are locally, but hardly known outside the area.

David Hockney, the painter, was born here, and returned a couple of years ago. THe light is amazing; the faces look as if they come straight from the 1950s.

THe light is clear here, blue, totally different from other parts of the coast. The area's rich in razor clams - why didn't I ever discover them when I lived near here??

There are local crabs, too… half cost of London, altho franly I think it's humiliating to have your selling price inscribed on one's claw…

It's not a posh resort. Plenty of cheap luxuries.

Altho maybe the seaside lifestyle isn't that healthy - there's a worrying number of people in invalid chairs round here,

THe beach itself is glorious - bright hard light, and strong winds… the dry sand is blown along the beach and constantly dances in the light…

[Paul T]

The next day we were off to one of the North's finest houses, Castle Howard. A beautiful, luxurious baroque building, But what surrounds is is far finer.

The Howards were a rich family… the house is built for display. But around it, the architects, Nicholas Hawksmoor and John Vanburgh, both of whom lived where I am now, got to indulge their own fantasies. The landscape is dotted with pyramids and occult motifs.

You drive or walk to the house via pyramids or obelisks.

And yet another pyramid in the grounds apparently conceals secret passages - and is situated so, via some quirk of the landscape, it follows you wherever you turn. Very effective, very spooky.

THe day we visited here, I started rereading a book called Hawksmoor, by Peter Ackroyd - it suggests he was in league with dark forces. IN some ways, he was. He harnessed the power of shadows, how light falls and is obscured.

This is his finest building; the mausoleum. Beautiful, but dark, it could be Georgian, or Greek, or prehistoric, the way it sits in the landscape. As autumn makes its presence felt in the north, the trees turning copper or amber, this is as fine a view as there is in England. The building looks strictly classical, but it isn't, it's an exercise in emotions- the birth of the romantic movement.

The pillars crowd together in a way that outraged latin scholars - they huddle closely, as if to keep the dead souls within.

Happy Halloween…
