Picked up some honkies from Dobbin and headed to Coney Island to skate under the influence of a few Silver Bullets. Here is some clips of that day. We had more on Huff’s camera, but he wouldn’t give up the footage cause he believes blogs are for losers . . . except his girlfriend’s who does that for a living.
Some random LOMO pics from the past couple weeks. Used this redscale film which makes everything look like your either on Mars or in my old studio apt. in Ann Arbor decorated with velvet curtains. Wow.

Big sis popped out a human on Saturday . . . the thing was HUGE! People say he looked liked his uncle but we all agreed that Max has the Dembowski family case of nassatall. Here’s some pics of the event.

No comments7th time’s a charm
Had a day off so I tried out that there new Polaroid film, the PX-600. Way better than the other film, although it leaked lamination fluid which made my SX-70 look like a flock of birds took a communal shit on my camera.
Click on the poor pup for the link . . . just some test shots and a big bug. Hooray!
make time for a snack
Sorry about the lack of posts lately. The Mexico journey left me computer-less and drunk for 10 days. Then I had to milk the last post for glory complements that I didn’t get kidnapped and put into sex slavery during my trip.
Anywho, here’s a short one with skating some newly built stuff on the seaport with my shitbag friends. I would have had a trick in there but I was damn well too tan for the camera.
No commentshave you paid my mom
Went down to Mexico for 10 days to see if I could convince my lady to be a mule and smuggle back vast amounts of tripa to introduce to the American population. Unfortunately, no one on the other side would front me the pig intestines and insisted that it remains strictly for street meat purposes.
Anywho, after that failure, we regrouped and had a great time finding many Babe Manoogians living in Mexico City. Here’s a couple that crossed our path:
I will now give you a top ten list of must-do’s while in Mexico:
1. Request a hand-check of your film at airport security in order to discover a never-before-seen human emotion combined of disgust, confusion, and despair.
2. Go to a bar and have your girlfriend replace the Spanish word for “beer” with “lamb” and see how far you get.
3. Refuse to wear sunscreen because you think your Armenian roots can overpower the Mexican sun, then make your girlfriend scratch the driest back ever known to man for weeks to come.
4. Eat some questionable meat, preferably pig.
5. Have your girlfriend get black-out drunk, then make sure she is the decision maker for hailing a cab.
6. Befriend a local baseball team on the beach over some cocktails then go watch their game the next day with chronic diarrhea.
7. Ask for a quesadilla without meat drunk at 3am and see what they serve you.
8. Confront a man, cornered and alone on a deserted path, and request his business card for a group family massage.
9. Go to the sketchiest liquor store and observe the store clerk stare at your girlfriend’s vagina.
10. Bookend the trip with diarrhea and vomiting.
Snapped a whole bunch of pics while I was down there . . . 8 pages of them. I used both my Polaroid Land Camera and my LOMO LCA and was pretty stoked on what came out. Check them out and have fun!
All in all though, Mexico is the shit for real. The people were wonderful, the food was amazing, and the culture is the best. For $50 you can get a nice hotel that will supply you with enough 2-Ply for weeks of the trots. Don’t sleep and go to some Cancun bullshit, save up some ransom money, put it aside with your parents and head to the real Mexico like we did.
Last but not least, here is the video of our adventure (click on thumbnail below):
