I am looking forward to a really productive weekend. And if I feel I deserve a treat at some point I may even go have a beer with our Moose buddies, Horse and Okapi.
Bonus points for anyone who can guess their names in the comments.
WOW! Our blog’s anniversary went rushing by on Friday and I didn’t even know! Yup, on February 6, Jack posted a little something about Pan Am bags, and then let me have at it. It’s been a good year, I must say! Thanks to everyone!
The emails have been piling up, so here goes the second edition (which I’m also calling the “NY Times edition”) of “Neat Links From My Father!”
- A “good and cheap” Chinese restaurant in the city, I will have to investigate and give my input.
- Get inspired by the creativity and thriftiness of college students!
- More from the NY Times, this time an article about Shepard Fariey (probably the most famous for his Andre the Giant / OBEY and Obama posters).
- Hidden Parks of NYC
- Google releases a HopStop-like (a transit navigational site) feature for New York and New Jersey. But, unlike HopStop, Google works directly and is affiliated with the MTA, Port Authority and NJ Transit.
- Who doesn’t love Barbar?
- Moose Hunting with Woody Allen.
Yea, this has probably been the longest I’ve gone between posts. When things in my life get kinda hectic, the blog falls to the wayside. I’m preparing myself for some things (very good things) that I hope are just around the corner. Right now, this is what needs my time. Consistent blogging shall resume shortly. Much love! ~Jules
I thought I would let everyone know that I have won the European Lottery! I didn’t even know that I had played.
Here are some excerpts from my prize announcement:
Congratulation!!!!!!!!!!!
Dear Winner.
See, I’m a Winner!
All participating mail for this year’s promo was drawn from the mails address in our visitor guestbook around the world, sponsored and marketing sites.
Ok, That makes things much clearer, “mails address in our visitor guest book” thats how I must have played the lotto.

Once upon a time a California boy met a Georgia girl in New York. They didn't get along, at first. But, little by little, they fell in love. Today they are happy and still very much in love, running a business and a blog together.
