July 14, 2015 - Getting ready to watch the movie ‘Spy’ with Joe and Casey. I’m not a huge proponent of sequels but I’d super enjoy seeing Melissa McCarthy revisit more undercover CIA characters.

July 4, 2011 - After the July 4th parade we went to the heart of Northside to tour the American Can Lofts that were under construction. Previously this old factory made parts for can-making machines but had sat vacant for years. They were accepting rental applications. I picked one up and would move in that December.

June 27, 2008 - Reading a post on Google Reader from A Photo Editor about Richard Prince who rephotograped advertising images and presented them as his own. I thought it’d be funny to take a photo of the photo of the photo.
