Peter: im not a big fan of segways, but i think the 4-wheeled segway "centaur" looks pretty cool!

in response to NYPD Segways

Peter: awesome! thanks. you can post some stuff of your own, you know, if you like ;)

in response to A Walk Through Brick City

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: I'm no expert, but they are an upright personal conveyance. I believe that they are easy to ride (you just stand on them) and you can zoom around without falling over as they are gyroscopically centered. People who love technology and who have lots of money buy them. They look...

in response to NYPD Segways

Nerida: Peter i just stumbled across this site and have been looking at your photos...i really like your style, you capture what you see so well, there is so much distilled in every image. i feel like i just spent the night in a gallery!

RuneWillem-Norway,Oslo..: Cathrine.. can you tell me what this is..? what is it for..? Segway....

in response to NYPD Segways

Peter: hahahaha... when stuff like this happens, i prefer the smug/brazen approach... i just elbow my wife sitting next to me, chuckle and say something like "hey baby, this weird bitch is pinching my ass! check it out!" that always does the trick. not that i get my ass pinched alot, but...

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: I've got to think of a way to cobble together an Aeron chair and a Segway. I'll need a holder for my Treo and iPod....

in response to NYPD Segways

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: No parking. Even not waiting (I think).

in response to abject objects

Peter: we just remove em, wash em (to get all the gooey pumpkin-innards bits off of them) and bake them at 350 until they look done or start to brown a bit. thats if you like them dry. the way i prefer them is to wash them, dry them, coat a baking...

in response to jack o\'lanterns on november 1st

GGP: yeah. the snowman is clever. I am looking for good seed-roasting recipes...Peter???

in response to jack o\'lanterns on november 1st

Peter: totally. what does the double-yellow line mean in the uk, right next to the curb? no parking? we have em only down the center of the road, where they mean no passing.

elaine: harr, i put that one in for you! right up your alley, i thought

in response to abject objects

Peter: new yorkers love halloween cause its a chance to be stupid, dress up, and generally do all the stuff you cant do on other days, from eating candy to dressing wierd to tossing eggs, heh. i love the shot of the trick-or-treaters hitting the liquor store. thats classic! :)

in response to Liquor and Candy

Peter: aha! this is a good entry, elaine. i love seeing fascination in the mundane. some of my fav entries on here have been people sharing everyday/pastoral stuff like this, the sort of stuff thats easy to overlook if you see it every day, knowing that its different enough (or aesthetic...

in response to abject objects

Peter: heh. that snowman looking one is cool. i like post-halloween pumpkin sales cause we get pumpkins half-off, crack em open, and roast all the seeds. yum.

elaine: and even the moldy bread in the junction box larder isn't quite miserable enough... actually, it is slightly worrying that it seems to be completely untouched. i took that photo today, and the previous posting on october 9th, by which time you would have thought the ratty boys would have had...

in response to abject objects

elaine: well, true. even something like this is redeemed by the glossiness of the photograph/internet, the sunny day, and my pretty framing and there is abjection in literature as well, and somehow that is similar, the very description of the object being so loving lifts it. is it impossible, then, to speak...

in response to abject objects

elaine: ta, barry, but of course, none of the artwork is mine, and it is great living right in such a vibrant neighbourhood
