word up from the city that never apples*
I heart homeless eating hagen daz
I heart 2.99 Obama t-shirts
I heart chocolate pizza
I heart free John Stewart tickets
I heart free VIP Conan tickets
I heart tom cruise in tropic thunder
I heart derek jeter getting picked off at first base in the 9th inning
I heart 17.99 burger and fries
I heart 9 dollar cheesecakes
I heart running the Central Park resevoir and east river to burn off the 17.99 burger and 9 dollar cheesecakes
I heart practicing my brooklyn accent(and am getting quite good)
I heart the world's largest selecting of breakfast cereal (cookie crisp my friends)
I heart crossing the street faster than anybody and everybody
I heart watching the jedi knight light saber battles in central park
I heart working across the street from David Bowie
I heart hating euro tourists
I heart you
have a blessed day
love

Here's some of the art I created inspire by the big NYC.
(top)
This is a piece i create for all the fun times I had working at Scholastic. It was intended to portray all the different personalities and all the different smiles we had. President of Scholastic Dick Robinson even displayed this pic during his speech at a staff party.

When people ask "What your favourite place in New York?",
one of my answers is the Dinosaur exhibit at the American Museum
of Natural History. I had never seen a display like that in my entire life.
Loved it. And with my Scholastic ID card I get into the museum for free.
(With guest passes if your interested.)
So anyway, I thought it would be fun to scribble stupid looking Dinos.

This piece was inspired by my evening runs. I would tighten my shoelaces, put the tunes in my ears and run down the east river. The buildings in New York can be strangling sometimes. It's great to break free and watch the sunset.
have a blessed day

.hey tiger
I just wanted to see how your doing and wanted to make bluntly sure to wish you a happy canada day.
I hope every body has way too much fun and has to go to bed early.
Sorry i can't be there to have a drink with you. Nothing to do with the travel.
Just to do with the fact that - i don't drink.
And to my americana friends - I'll cut and paste this email in 3 days, and change like 6 words.
Thanks everybody for all the gnarly support.
It's like one great big giant pizza party down here - but in city form.
I've been trying to get back to everbody
But you try writing an email with no air conditioning.
And if you have tried- then you my friend know what i'm talking about.
Enjoy the colours everybody
I mean color
I mean soda
I mean I love you
and don't forget you owe me 17bucks.
have a blessed day
love

Hey all you tiger cats,
I just wanted to send out a thank you to all my friends, fam, teachers who helped get me where I am(and hoped to be) today.
As many of you don't already know,
The other day I got shifted over to Manhattan, New York.
Apparently there is a woman here with silly big spikes growing out of her head.
And I just got back from watching Letterman, and Jack Black was on. Jack has a belly.
I'm stuck working on Broadway at Scholastic Books
A little crowded by nerdy wizards, but Mrs. Rowling, we all know what 5 letters come after J K
To my american and canadian friends,
