This is too strange and funny to try to describe.

A member of Tats Cru painting the mural wall on East Second Street.
This guy was posing for a photo and seemed happy that I took his picture as well.

Is it my imagination or are those Elephants rubbing their Republican asses on the Vote again?
New Museum Bowery
Thursday, August 28th, 2008
I haven’t been able to persuade myself to visit my neighborhood museum. It could be that it looks too much like a refrigerator, especially with that rainbow refrigerator magnet out front. If they were going for that, they should have gone whole hog with school lunch schedule, crayon drawings and baby pictures. And their website left me completely uninterested in any of the art. A taxidermied headless horse hung by it’s neck, a perverse trophy on the wall, yikes! But it must have a great view, and I feel compelled to get some shots from up there.
This neighborhood was once dominated by new and used commercial kitchen equipment stores. Now only a few remain. The big show was always the messy sidewalk cleaning of used stoves, removing years of carbonized meat fats, using god-knows-what sorts of solvents hosed down the storm drains. The unenviable job employed the homeless,staying in the nearby Bowery flophouses.
