Vanity Fair: Being Frank

March 29, 2008 · No Comments

In this April’s Vanity Fair:

Robert Frank goes to China, gets new pants, eats soup. An interesting read.

A short film entitled “Pull My Donkey” (also by LeDuff) starring Frank and his wife June Leaf is tagged on at the end of the online article. Honestly, I don’t quite get it, but it’s late and my Adderall has worn off, and even though I don’t get it, I found myself drawn into it. Something about it was fascinating.

AND AND AND

A new edition of “The Americans” is being released on the 40th anniversary of when the book was first published. Release date is set for May 15.

You can pre-order now.

Yay for a getting a previously outrageously expensive out-of-print classic photo book for less than $30 and not on eBay.

Rundown on the Update

March 29, 2008 · No Comments

This feels like it’s taking forever. Much needed blog overhaul = tedious insanity. I wish I had something better to do on a Saturday night.

Now / Coming Soon:

  • Same WP theme, custom tweaked CSS for better everything (hopefully)
  • BIGGER pictures
  • Updated “About” page
  • Updated resumé + downloadable PDF version
  • Post categories have disappeared until I can get them organized
  • New image header
  • Reorganized sidebar
  • Reorganized blogroll and links
  • Drop down menu for blog archives
  • Probably some other stuff

Yay!

Things may be out of whack for a few days until I finish this. Suggestions, too, always welcome.

My brain hurts, but I’ve been sitting at this desk so long, I can’t even feel my butt.

Kiss kiss,
