In Food For Thought, a local restaurant and neighborhood epicenter, a young brother, Armon Bell, 10, walks up to us and asks if we’d like to buy one of his drawings.
Armon: Ya’ll wanna picture?
Reynolds (thinking he’s talking about taking photos): Naw, we good lil homie.
Griffin: Pictures you drew?
Armon: Yeah.
(Reynolds finally catches on to the “artist speak”)
Griffin: How much?
Armon: A […]

Today we went to see the great blues legend, Olu Dara. Some may know him as Nas’s father, but beyond that, he is a monumental figure in music history, and one that should be praised regardless of the fame of his son.
Anyway, at the concert I heard some amazing stories, and learned some valuable lessons, […]

The Bridge is over, the Bridge is over, biddy bye bye!

Thursday, Griffin, Chris Bailey and I, ventured out to the Bridge Art Fair for a jammin good time! Well, maybe not jammin, though they did have a dj, spinning house music, and when awkward, introverted artists (hay, we’re awkward sometimes, but introverted…nah) hear house music, it seems like suddenly all the ecstatic alter-egos from galaxies […]

So I missed Griffin’s art show. BUT there is a reason! And a pretty good one. I drove from Brooklyn, stopped in DC to pick up my mother, and headed south. All the way south. So south, that the state has “south” in it’s name (so, does South Dakota, but that’s not where I went). […]

So, the other night, Griffin, Terrence and I were up late yapping about life, while flick flick flicking through all of the “paid programming” that runs at 3:30 in the morning. Finally we landed on an awesome Japanese show, “Ninja Warrior,” where people basically test their ninja skills! Wayyyyy cool. But the real excitement […]
