Roman Update…

Here are a few pics from around the city and Taq’s show shot on the ol’ 3660…

usually I would post this straight from the phone to the Hypermodern Mobile Blog although I can’t get the multimedia message to work here so I’m doing it by hand.

So far the trip has been amazing, and I have about 8 days to go…I just shot a video today and will be posting it as soon as it’s edited.

Rome story #1

I have been trying learn a bit of the Italian language and earlier this week I had over-heard some folks say “let’s go” or [Andiamo] and then later today I was hungry for lunch and Taq and I had just gotten back from that big stone mouth from the ROMAN HOLIDAY movie [bocca di verit�] and I get all excited to impress her with my new knowledge and blurt out [alimentari] which basically means “Delicatessen!” She got a good giggle from that, ’cause I had meant to say “let’s go” to lunch, and out comes out just “DELICATESSEN!”…

Later note: Upon looking up delicatessen it actually is [specialit� gastronomiche].


So I made it, and here’s a picture from the Roman Forum after I jogged around this morning.

I have a lot to do before I go, I’m excited!

So I woke to a dream of shiny quarters coming out of a slot macnhine, and received a gift of movie passes at the Y, a large piece of 300 lb paper…I also shot the project “Faking It” with Justin…learned to use Nikon D 70.

I ate a book in two days…that’s really fast for me…motivated to get this art business going…I learned a lot (and finally know the differnce between an asset and liability).

Moving forward from here, I am going to make my money work for me rather than work for my money…
