Happy Passover things I guess...

I saw this in a shop window on my way home from work...



It is some sort of Passover inflatable punching bag weeble-wobble toy thing. You know the kind that would usually depict a professional wrestler...or the villain from a comic book and/or movie. But here it depicts Rameses amidst a hoard of plague frogs...
...just look at the happy little plague frog...sitting on his head there...

As you can see the river in the background has turned to blood...but it's ok Old Rameses doesn't look too worried. What a delightful child's toy.

Mirrors are handy!

This is me and my new Polaroid camera.


I bought it at a Khols department store for $53 with coupon.


Mirrors are handy for taking pictures of yourself and your camera at the same time.


I have blogged before but this is my first photoblog thinger. All it is going to be is a bizarre record of my day to day life accompanied by a few words about the random pictures I take. I have no professional training so the pictures are all going to be awful but that's just how I roll. Just random moments of banality caught, well not on film...but on a digital memory stick!

For instance here are my giant feet and a coffee cup.


Here's my Stephen Colbert Tote that I got at Barnes&Noble a while back sitting in the seat in front of me on my train ride to or from work I can't remember.



And here is a red brick building in Hoboken NJ shot from across the aisle and out the window while once again on the train...I spend a lot of my time on that train.




So I hope this gives you a good idea of what this blog will be like and such. I till try to make the commentary on the pictures short and interesting. So...um...the end.
