Christmas Time Machine
What should you give to your 27-year old for Chirstmas? The same thing you gave him when he was 7. That's always going to be a safe bet. At this age, he's probably able to support himself and doesn't need or want any more ties.

My parents, bless their hearts, got on eBay and found a Hopping Hoomdorm, one of Tomy's Space Pets from the early eighties. They got my brother one of the others from that series. They also got me the plastic Godzilla with the shooting fist and tongue of fire. I remember not opening any other presents the first time I got it back in '82. This time they will not be destroyed by blackcats and M-80s.

The kicker though, was what they got my sister: Growing Up Skipper. When you turn her arm (the doll, not my sister), she grows taller and gains a few bra sizes.


H-Town
I was in Houston for the hollidays. I took a picture of the grave yard in front of my friend Marcus' house over in this crackhead infested part of town. A couple of nights later I went back to the area to see if there was a better shot with fog at night (I thought the city lights shining through it would look really neat). A local fellow driving a really old cutlass wanted to get my attention for some reason, yelling "say! say man! hey you!" I booked it back to the house as fast as I could without getting another shot.

Yes, those are the Enron buildings in the background if you were wondering, and yes, I meant it to come out like that.
