what was that? is that all there is? who is this? this is it.

I like arrows. I like street signs.  I like slight alterations that yield big changes. I like things that when taken out of context take on a whole new meaning. I like whole new meanings.

This sign was warning drivers that one block ahead at 12th & Denny, it’s right turn only. But after some handiwork from a like-minded Capitol Hill resident, it’s now reassuring all of us that it’s only a fad. Word.

Fixed gear bikes have been around for 120 years. They’re not going anywhere, they just change colors once in a while. If I had a fixed gear this photo would be even better. But it’s a coaster brake. They know it’s not fixed. And I know they know. I know.

Do you know? Email, text message, Nextel direct connect, phone call, fax, certified mail, FedEx, process service, hand delivered via messenger.

Have you tried talking? It’s so two-years-ago.

You might be a messenger if the first 18 pack lasts 12 minutes and the second one never hits the ground.

You might be a messenger if you’re looking for olive oil in your kitchen cabinet but you have to move the sunscreen, massage oil and chain lube to find it.

You might be a messenger if your spine is crooked and all your clothes wear out prematurely in the shoulders and ass.

You might be a messenger if you speak in ten codes to your parents.

10-9?
