New York, picture edition


Museum of Natural History. You know who that is out front on the horse? That's Teddy Roosevelt. He was a pimp of a president.


Squirrel! Woohoo!


Ice on the ponds in Central Park.


The Metropolitan Art Museum. What is up with America and neo-classical architecture? It's just bloody everywhere. Ooh, I know, let's throw on a huge column for no real reason! It'll look stylish!



An Egyptian tomb inside the Met. Very cool.


Memorial in Central Park



Apple Store. I was unimpressed that this wasn't actually the store. The store itself is below ground, and the cube just sits above it.




Inside the Empire State Building


Me atop the ESB. Damn windy up there, let me tell you.


The view from the top


The spire (or whatever it's called). That's where King Kong climbed!

The ESB from outside


Museum of Sex. Actually had a damn interesting exhibit on sex and design.


...oh my.


Chrysler Building


Statue in the UN. I think there was meant to be some sort of message implied. Couldn't really figure it out.


Trump Tower. Few know this, but it is actually a miniature version of the diamond Trump used to propose to his most recent wife.

160mg of caffeine in this. It was mighty, mighty potent.

Corner of 53rd and 3rd. If anyone reading this is a Ramones fan, that'll mean something.

That's it for now folks. I'm sure there'll be more later!
