The Baltimore Ravens won the Super Bowl. …and then Baltimore went friggin’ nuts!

“Hotloading” is Joe Bugleowicz’s photographic memoir of nearly a year driving a tourist bus in Alaska. It’s really good & super quirky. All the photos in the newspaper were made with a film point & shoot & printed by Newspaper Club.

AARP Bulletin DOP Michael Wichita called me up a few months ago — actually, while I was in Denver for Geekfest – needing an in-house mock up made so he could pitch an illustration idea to his bosses for a big story they’re doing on the kind of people who use Social Security. He needed it [...]

Dozens of drag queens raced down 17th Street, between P and S Streets NW near DuPont Circle Tuesday October 25th, 2011. The race is 25 years old! How’s that for stick-to-it-ive-ness?

Just so you know… I’m absolutely horrible at this game. I scored the least amount of points, whereas Nick was 2nd best and the best on his team. Our team would’ve been obliterated had we not had Michael Bracco and all of his good looking luck. Man! …I hate that guy. I mean, have you seen his
