Tip for Summer Travelers

Posted in travel with tags , , , , , on June 14, 2008 by siksydney

When entering or leaving a subway platform via the escalator in the big city, such as New York or DC, remember this rule:

“stand on the right; walk on the left.”

Following this rule can prevent you being shoved out the way by a local linebacker. Locals do not take kindly to you and your crew blocking the whole escalator enjoying every second as if it were Space Mountain at DisneyLand.

This has been a public service announcement.

you know the economy is bad when Mr. Ed McMahon’s mansion is pending foreclosure. maybe he should call the last person he delivered a check to for a loan.

” Ed McMahon, who for decades appeared as Johnny Carson’s sidekick on the Tonight Show, is fighting to avoid foreclosure on his multimillion-dollar Beverly Hills home, according to published reports.

The former Star Search host was $644,000 behind on payments on $4.8 million in mortgage loans when a unit of Countrywide Financial Corp. filed a default notice February 28 with the Los Angeles County Recorder’s Office, the Wall Street Journal first reported late Tuesday.”

REcoil

I gained even more respect and appreciation for Alan Wilder after he departed Depeche Mode and began releasing irresistible ear candy under the name Recoil.

His production skills have always been very impressive and I’ve always loved the more downbeat/tripHop sounds he has captured on the Recoil albums “Unsound Methods” and “Liquid”.

Recoil - Stalker

A new enhanced cd/dvd release is scheduled for Feb. 25th, 2008 of the single “Prey”. more here
