Quickies
ByDerekNo, we haven’t disappeared off the face of the Earth. We have been watching Planet Earth, but that’s as inconsequential as what happened thousands of years ago before Sigourney Weaver. So here’s some stuff that has been going on: Condolences to Amanda’s friend Amy, who lost her grandmother this week Congrats to my sister, who…

Windows Live Local street-side imaging in Buffalo
ByDerekI spotted this truck the other day at Mighty Taco on Sheridan and snapped a very poor photo of it with my Treo (lighting was on the wrong side, sorry). I forgot all about it until I saw this topic come up on Buffalo Issue Alerts. The idea is that in addition to satellite and…

Borders coming to Orchard Park
ByDerekAccording to a sign posted along Milestrip Road, Borders will be coming to the southtowns with a new store at Quaker Crossing. I have conflicting feelings on this. I’m glad that the southtowns will finally have something to fill the gap left by the closing of Media Play and Sam Goody. Unfortunately, it’s a new…

Merry Christmas!
ByDerekThis Christmas season is proving to be exceptionally challenging trying to get shopping done, cookies baked, the house prepped for Christmas, and everything else that needs to be done while managing Ariella’s eating/sleeping/pooping schedule. Amanda also came down with a sinus infection that’s had her mostly benched since Thursday. We wouldn’t trade it for anything,…

What a relief!
ByDerekWhat a relief that the Sabres finally finished off Ottawa. All these playoff games have been seriously affecting my ability to get other things done, like work outside, pay bills, etc. Hopefully NJ/Carolina goes 7 games so I can get back on track!

From all those photographs, the one that struck me (and probably not many others) the most is the one with the bicycles all lined up. The juxtaposition of very modern with the very communist-egalitarian is a hoot. I have a similar photograph from my trip to Shanghai – hundreds upon hundreds of bicycles, all virtually identical, Schwinn-looking, rust-covered, circa 1950s. I never did find out if they were community property or individually owned, but I couldn’t imagine knowing how to tell mine from the others, had I owned one.
I guess you had to be there.

Hooters in China….. I like them more and more all the time.
Have seen many of your photos, but I don’t really remember alot of them not to say that they aren’t good but there are a few here that have really caught my eye — the black and white tree lined pathway is amazing. I also really enjoyed the sunset skyline shot and night lites shot. Very good shots Derek from what looks like an amazing place to visit.
