in Who Makes Decisions at SEPTA? on Frank
Ellen DeGeneres has a funny bit about using the phrase 'packed like pickles' instead of 'packed like sardines'. check it out.
and good god. SEPTA. probably the poorest run transit system i've encountered in all my years. i've lived in 3 major cities, traveled to several others in the US and many in Europe. SEPTA is as bass ackwards as things can get.

I'll check out Ellen's thing...that is already making me laugh.
Yeah, I can' t imagine why a major city can't have a good PT system. It
baffles me. D.C.'s is gorgeous. NYC's works, even if it's filthy. SF has a
great one. WTF...no one seems to be in charge. These guys just do what they
want and don't give a hoot.

Frank
Actually, Albert, I'd like to engage you to do a photo shoot at our office. Mostly would like some casual shots...a Day in the Life of iFractal. I'm in Chicago this week, but would love to talk about it. Actually, I'd like a mutli-day shoot....not all day, a few hours here and there...we can talk about how to do that...send me a note. Let's talk.

you shouldn't start fights. BUT, you should be the one to end them if they do pop up ;)

Frank
I'm more along that line...it could have been so simple...no cutting in line, no yelling on me, and this is no deal at all. But I've been locked and loaded for years. It's why I walk away.

in When Sheryl Tells You to Use Neosporin, Do It on Frank
i remember telling a friend one time that Neosporin (or the generic offspring) is one thing i will never give up. i don't care if dead baby seals are on the ingredients list - it's probably right after ground unicorn horn. that stuff is magical.

in Three Things I Never Taught My Sons on Frank
i hate how kids are so coddled these days. it's not even necessarily by the parents now. the world's become too sterile and the souls of the adults of tomorrow will be broken too easily once they enter the real world.

Frank
Albert, it is amazing how much coddling goes on. We worry for our kids, but we're not doing them any favors "protecting" them from every possible negative thing.

in Our TV Broke on Frank
there are places that take hazardous waste materials - don't just let the trash man crunch it!

Yeah Albert - recycling all those TVs is going to be a nightmare</>. I'm sure we'll just send them all for some second- or third-world country to deal with. I doubt municipalities are thinking of dumping all that lead and carcinogens in their landfills (as opposed to special drop-offs) - maybe we need to get recyclers involved - there's also precious metals in there too, right?

i got a freebie for this one too a few months ago. i thought it was interesting, but not for me. but i thought that with the completely user-driven content that costs would be low enough for this sucker to survive. oh well.

in I Smell a Rat on Frank
no boa? how about a python? my brother had a 6' burmese python. it rocked.
also, gross. rats! i recently finished Robert Sullivan's 'Rats' book where he studied the life of some NYC rats which led him across the country seeking out rat experts. creepy and fascinating at once. brooklyn's rats were the heartiest.

great idea! flowers, fruits, veggies, herbs!
down with lawns! they don't serve much purpose other than soaking up rather precious water.

in Mercato in Philadelphia on Frank
Good god is Mercato an incredible meal. The people behind Mercato (and Valanni across the street) really know what they're doing.
Best of all, they're 1/2 a block from my house and during the nice weather when I have the windows open, I can smell their kitchen.
And they're at Spruce/Camac which is 1216 Spruce, not 216 ;)

in Assaulted NY Times reporter is not pressing charges on Colin Devroe
i think one big reason he's not pressing charges is he can't identify the perp. also, he's a photog for the NYT and everything's insured. on top of everything, the still had the photos.
