Slightly Off-Center Photography exhibition at the Fells Grind

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

I’ve just finished hanging my photography at the Fells Grind in Fells Point for another exciting exhibition. There are lots new photos from the trip to Paris and some extras from Oregon, Italy and Baltimore that I didn’t have a change to hang in the last show. The photos will be hanging at the Grind until mid-march. Check it out!

My good friend Mark attempts the near-impossible task of ranking French Fries by style.

Jasa Kabob in Canton is open!

Wednesday, July 1st, 2009

At long last, there is ethnic food on Canton Square!

Jasa Kabob opened today in the former Py space with delicious grill smoke wafting out the front window. I picked up a take-out menu. Some nice looking dishes. Chicken, lamb and beef kabobs, curries, chicken and beef tikka, samosas, a few flavors of naan (one stuffed with ground beef, another with marinated potato) and daily meat and vegetarian specials for seven bucks and change.It’s a bigger menu than you’d expect for such a small space. The website isn’t live yet but it’ll be at jasakabob.com when it’s ready to go.

Most of the menu is between $8-$12. I’m planning on going tonight for a test drive. I’ll report back.

In memory of Roy.

Monday, June 29th, 2009

Rest in peace, Roy. You lived the fullest, most exciting life a goldfish could ever hope to live.

I hope you and Belinda are swimming around together and enjoying an unlimited supply of freeze dried shrimp and goldfish flakes in that giant fishtank in the sky.

You’ll be missed little buddy.

Bing: When Banner Ads Go Bad

Thursday, June 18th, 2009

I saw this banner ad for Microsoft’s Bing on Chow.com.

It asked for my zodiac sign. So I entered “Cancer” and hit the little magnifying glass.

It popped up a window with the search results in Bing.

But it gave me cancer cancer. Not horoscope cancer.

Google 1, Bing 0.
