flashback: june 17, 2002

new york, new york

i wasn't working at this time. sept 11th caused a tail spin in the freelance consulting world for about a year, at least for me. instead i was spending time working on my photography dropping by icp as much as i could.

with the free time i got to enjoy more of summer in the city. i love summer in the city, free entertainment everywhere. on that 17th bryant park movies opened up with on the town the gene kelly, frank sintra classic. so at 4:30 in the afternoon i stormed the field with my blanket. i remember remarking on manhattan henge, the phenomena of the sun setting perfectly between the cross streets of manhattan. but i don't really recall too much else.

the days of storming the field are over for me. pretty much everyone who used to go has moved out to the sticks. i still manage to sneak into the end of the movie and get a seat on the side of the grass. last night, playing at the park was dr. no. got there in time as ursula andress, the original bond girl, made her famous entrance from the ocean.
