Random stroll-bys: Archnemesis

Overheard, while standing in front of Masquerade last night:

“Did I tell you I have a new archnemesis at the Renaissance Festival? There’s this bagpipe player…”

Random drive-bys: Out the window downtown

A rare view of Hurt Building details, from a window on the north wing of the (I think) 16th floor, looking south.

Students protest budget cuts, from the parking garage looking into Hurt Park

The orchid nursery in my office, looking north toward SunTrust at Woodruff Park

From my office, filming a TV series on Edgewood.

Random drive-bys: Everywhere a sign

Cleaning those Cubbie photos off my phone yesterday, I found all sorts of strange and wondrous BlackBerry pictures I’d snapped but never viewed.  So for the next few days I’ll subject you to a series of random clicks out the window and across the street.

Make up yer cottonpickin! One is right; the other is wrong.

It's bad enough there's a school for it. But does the sign have to speak txt?

HI! Get in there and get me one of those tots!

Larry McDonald fell down.

This suburban gated 'hood is called Renaissance. Imitation Old Masters adorn on the stone-veneer walls. It makes me grin. (But then, as you can see, I'm easily amused.)

This has been on Woodlawn forever. Dan and I looked at the house next to it when we were shopping houses once. There's a story behind it that's too long for a caption.

Because I can ... give you directions to my house from here.
