This is the passenger side door handle from my beloved (and no-longer-extant) 1970 Volkswagon Beetle—a plain Beetle, none of that ‘super’ stuff—that was destroyed by a nice woman in a 1984 Ford Bronco in 1998 or 1999. I’m not really sure of the date any more… I think the police must have brought me the …

Obey Dallas – continued, ammended
Apparently, there was some interwebs chatter regarding Shepard Fairey and his status as a sellout following his recent DJ appearance and muraling in Dallas.

365.43 Buddha and the Comet
I feel like I’m going backwards. Forty-three days in and this is what I show up with? Jeez. D7000, Nikon 75-150 f/3.5 E Series at ~135mm, ISO100, 8 seconds, f/8.
Hipstamatic Disposable update 9 – the El Mario camera
