The Walker Evans Effect

The proposed routes were announced the other day for the hopefully to-be-coming-soon streetcars here in Columbus, Ohio. There were 3 routes proposed. I took the route images from the Columbus Dispatch website and photoshopped them all together to see how they would all look overlapping.

I can’t wait to ride it! There’s a stop not far from my house!

Anne & I walked over to Schiller Park this evening to watch a free performance of “The Complete Works of Shakespeare (Abridged)” as performed in part of the “Shakespeare in the Park” summer series, and I have to say it was a lot of fun. The actors did a nice job and some bits were pretty funny. A few of the jokes were dated, while others were updated, but beside that small inconsistency it was pretty well performed. Who can really complain when it’s free?

Yesterday Anne & I went to Schmidt’s Sasuage Haus in German Village with her parents. They had only had their creme puffs and brats at the Ohio State Fair, so since we only live a few blocks away we were able to have them try out the whole grand buffet there. Good stuff.

So, just for the record… on the fourth of july, 2006, I ate a cold hot dog for breakfast, german sausage for lunch, and more hot dogs (hot this time) for dinner. HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA!

Q: What’s better than Piggyback Rides in Schiller Park?
A: NOTHING!
