Shaved head at the Callenwolde with R.E. Hendrix and Tom Lux in the audience. Does it get better? It does; it was one of the Poet's Against The War readings, and I read with Danielle Hanson.

Time to see if my brazing skills worked on Tropez. They did, but I bent the boom through too much pushing and not enough spinning. Back to the drawing board.
I put out serval bikes from this workshop. The Sunshine Bike (yellow and hanging), The Green Machine, The Little Blind Girl's Bike, Four Eros, Tropez, Lumina, Hush Refubished, The Liquid Engineer's bike - if you squint you can find the parts for Quesce in there as well.
This was the prototype for my uber sketchy JB Weld Fixed design. She rode pretty well, but was, alas, taken apart to make Lumina.
This was my primary mountain bike for a good while. I restored it from a few tag sale bikes, taking the best parts of each. When I left CT I gave her to H.
Lumina - my fixed gear. Note the gear wind-chimes in the background. Lumina began life as a Ross 10 speed road bike, sometime in the early 70s. She was one of my most successful bike building projects.
I was taking a break in the library courtyard after interviewing somewhere. Swan and Jess showed up in nice clothes and we all did some camera mugging.
This was from the booklaunch in early April, 06. The whole thing was filmed on DVD - I should do something with that footage soon. The reading was great, due to the lively and interested crowd.

Black, black and more black. I can't remember which poems I read, but they went over pretty well. Who says Law Students don't get it?
The gloriously full haired Athens days. Note the juxtaposition of poetry and donuts. I'm not sure if I'm reaching for a tasty pastry or a sonnet.
