Thanks for the compliment...I think I used the 77 for that one.

Nice shot, Tom. It is a refreshing change from television of which I am watching too 
much. Way too
much.

Thanks, that's my best friend's daughter.

My friend and I have have known each other basically since I was born...our 
mothers were stewardesses (NOT flight attendants) together. We go through 
periods of getting out of touch, but recently started to hang out again. I 
probably burn a roll of film on his family (and that freaky cat) every week.

Thanks, Tom,

Maybe we all need a little mindless chitchat right now.  It's kind of refreshing.

Lovely pic o' the week, BTW.  What a beautiful girl!  Love the freckles.  Who is
she?

regards,
frank

Mindless Chitchat

2001-09-14 Thread tom

I have a wedding tommorrow that's got about a 50/50 chance of going 
offas of this a.m., the groom was still in L.A.

Next weekend's bride and groom are in London.

I'd expected to hear from a couple of NY clients this week, but haven't. 
Haven't heard from last week's client's either.

What's a guy to do? Well, I turned off the tv and NPR, cranked up Emmylou 
Harris, Liz Phair and The Continental Drifters, and developed about 8 rolls 
of film. There's something to be said for mindless drudgery and music to 
clear one's mind.

BTW, I've been diligently keeping my pic o' the week page updated:

http://www.bigdayphoto.com/tom/pow/

I put up a cat picture last week for Mike, and he didn't even say anything...

I drove up and down Rte. 7 tonight, and there were 7 or 8 little 
candlelight vigils on various corners. Folks in the DC area tend to be a 
transient bunch, and neighborliness probably isn't as prominent here as it 
is in other places I've been. It was gratifying to see.
