Battling the Snow in Stalingrad. Ha!

NYC is covered...I can't remember the last time we were hit this bad by a snow storm. Perhaps the blizzard of '96?

Honestly, it's not that bad...just going to be one hell of an inconvenience.

Nike's on my Feet VOL. Melvins SB's (4 Sale)

Nike Dunk SB High Pro SB "Melvins", released in September, 2005.

I've got the Black and the White. Both are size 9.5, DS aka DEADSTOCK...never been worn, straight virgin.

I'm going to unload sneakers...I'm an old man and I have a 5 shoe rotation, I don't need these.

Shoot me an offer and we'll talk, just don't be an ass and lowball me. I'm not asking for a fortune, just be fair.

Peace.

IX + IX = 46

Pearls and Olives.

I was sauntering around my local mall the other day and ran across a Re-retro of the Charcoals. I honestly never thought I'd see those retroed. Anyway, it reminded me of these 2...

I honestly forgot about these shoes. Sad to say that I no longer am into sneakers, hell, I've left the idea of sneakers behind so much that I sometimes forget what shoes I do and do not have.

Yep...I'm definitely getting older.

BTW, Jordan retro's way too many shoes...Just my 2 centavos.

Lakers vs. Heat game, still not interested, lol. I'm a football guy (fucking Giants and their ineptitude!) but if you bring back the feel of Sunday games on NBC back in the 90's, then I'm game.

lol, btw, this is my uncle...just watching the game. Sorry about that little tangent. Ha!

Lunar Eclipse VOL: Wanna Be MARS

Here's take 2 of the luncar eclipse. It's a closer representation of the moon, not as much processing as my first take.

Although if you ask me, I like the "Cudi" version better.

Man on the Moon VOL. Kid Cudi

I've got my EYE on you MOON, I know you're there...DECEPTICONS!

Stayed outside to get a capture of the lunar eclipse...

2 a.m. Eastcoast time a few days short of Christmas = Nut SHRIVELING Cold!

Fine, I admit, the moon was mostly red. But man, this is so much better! Has a little bit of a "Boom" factor to it, lol.

I left a good amount of GRAIN on the MOON, gives it more texture and a less FAKE look and feel.

Broken Hearted like Wanya and Brandy

I believe I lost a few weeks of my life from watching the Giants-Eagles game.

Actually, it wasn't even a game...it was an embarrasing display of so called "professional football" by the NY Giants.

First the dogs, now me?!!! FUCK YOU MICHAEL VICK!!!

Breaks my Heart!
