A classic the Oscars shunned

Four Kung-Fu clones chop, kick and romance their way around Hong Kong. What's not to like?

Get your filthy paws off my converse!

I swear, it's not safe to walk the streets these days. Are they getting bigger or what??!!

Just plane wrong

Travel safety information should be taken seriously. People shouldn't go around stealing them, cutting up magazines and making 'amusing' alternatives... OK, I couldn't help it, the voices over the intercom told me to do it!

Seasonally ill-adjusted

Halloween ended for me just after christmas with the removal of a sadly rotting exotic squash deflating by the front door. Taking a walk mid january I notice the citizens of Brooklyn are sensibly throwing their trees away... Hmmmm. So as I walk past these post-festive, coniferous orphans I think maybe I can embrace last years holiday and unseasonably deck my apartment until easter with a freebie tree. I selected a small specimen and contrary to the world, dragged it INTO my apartment.

With stores ramping up for Valentines Day I struggled to find xmas decorations. On the plus side, it's still not shed a single needle (what do they DO to these trees??!!) so I felt I had time. Post-It notes came to my rescue. A few scribbles later and voila!

Looking ahead, I'm seeing a St. Patrick's Day celebration is due somewhere around May. Brilliant!
