This Week's Most Distinguished Network Name

It's amazing what people will name their online networks. I'm always trying to hijack Wi-Fi when I'm commuting, so I often come across a number of interesting names. Every Tuesday, I post the most impressive and/or cringe-inducing names.

Network name: Lab House
Starting a meth lab at home seems like a sound career choice today.

Last Look Until Next Week

Dropped off posters at the Community Church of Boston for next week's Boston Poetry Marathon. Took my first shot of the John Hancock Tower this summer. I'll be back soon.


Classic Girlfriend

Ask what the hell is wrong with me without asking what the hell is wrong with me. A photo of me and my girlfriend from 2022 in front of the Moulin Rouge tourist trap in Paris. I don't know what I did for her eyes to start drilling into my soul at that moment, but I had to have done something! Where will we go next, and what will I do to deserve another drilling gaze into my core being?
