REAL TALK

Its 7 and a half minutes, and well worth the time. No matter what your belief on gay marriage is you kinda have to give it to NYS Senator Savino. The woman has some valid points. I personally don't want anything to do with marriage till it is a right for all people.

Proof I was here.

Birdcage

Just a tintype of me.

My favorite song of the week.

Café Tacuba

Ojala Que Llueva Café

This song is pretty much Latin Woody Guthrie

Pretty Accurate....

Complete absence of Africa.

Another big timer.

Abelardo Morell is a mind melter of a Cuban man. He is one of my favorite black and white printers. Find me an inkjet print that compares to one of his silver gelatins. You can't!!!!

Here is the trailer for a documentary about him and his photography. I love seeing other photographers work spaces. I don't know why, but it is kind of like seeing behind the curtain in OZ. I like to see amazing people make amazing things with the same goofy stuff that I use.

Charlie

Charlie is as solid of a human as they make. A true stand up fellow. Charlie has done more than his fair share in making me who I am today. He let me live in his pantry in Chicago for a few years, he is a high school math teacher, he once bought me an iPod, and he has large teeth.

Seriously though Charlie is the shit.
