Ann Althouse म्हणाले...: Definitely. I was this close to going there a couple days ago.; १२/३/०८, ११:१७ AM
Chip Ahoy म्हणाले...: Interesting. East Side Manhattan, you say. I just picked up Mark Helprin's Winter Tale, a story about a mythological NYC. It was recommended by several commentators to a Canadian blog,Small Dead Animals. I intended to read the prologue and a few chapters before bed and found I couldn't put it down until 100 pages later and I actually crashed right there in my chair fully clothed. I'm eager to continue. I mention this because I keep referring to online maps to discern exactly which portions are made up. Man, that guy has an engaging imagination.; १२/३/०८, ११:४५ AM

Is fisheye lens photography a love-or-hate thing too, I wonder?; १२/३/०८, १:३४ PM
Chip Ahoy म्हणाले...: Bored senseless, strange reaction. A friend thought that about Mailer's Ancient Evenings. Said he tossed the book against the wall in disgust. Never got past the beginning. I thought it was among the most brilliant fictions on Egypt ever written, and the beginning the best description of Egyptian ka I've ever heard, although a bit long. And I read a lot about Egyptian ka by academics that would bore the piss out of an average reader, myself included.; १२/३/०८, १:४२ PM

I can't take it anymore...enough with the fisheye lens.; १२/३/०८, ३:१८ PM
Chris Althouse Cohen म्हणाले...: Hey, it's me.; १२/३/०८, ४:२९ PM
dick म्हणाले...: Chips,

I am with your friend on that one. I thought Ancient Evenings was the most boring book I ever tried to get through. I thought maybe it got better as you got further in but I could not find any parts of it that would keep me reading more than a few pages and then toss the book.; १२/३/०८, ७:०१ PM
Unknown म्हणाले...: All your New York photos have been impressive. I especially liked the sunset shots with the Statue of Liberty. Amateur photographers who take pictures that good, must have a great camera. What camera are you using?
P.S. If you think yourself a professional, then accept my apologies for calling you an amateur; १२/३/०८, ७:२२ PM
Ann Althouse म्हणाले...: Have you heard of Ashley Alexandra Dupré? She's a professional.; १२/३/०८, ७:३८ PM
Ann Althouse म्हणाले...: Ger, if you don't want to look at fisheye photography, why don't you just skip those posts? I'm exploring something I care about.; १२/३/०८, ७:४७ PM
