Salt-encrusted skin, tangled hair, sore legs, soaked clothes, broken necklace: a great dance night. Shawn Saindon plays a great mix of 80's and modern stuff (from the Human League to M.I.A.)
Maybe the world didn't need a close-up of this guy's teeth. Great song, though.

Portland, how I love you
Two best things I've seen lately:
1. Tin foil guy in a suit, sans tin foil, looking for the speed-dating at the Empire.
2. Pigeon guy, looking as if he's experiencing the rapture as about 6 pigeons land on him while biking on Congress.

It's not scientifically proven, but
women with glasses have a definite disadvantage when it comes to shaving legs.

Walk Along Casco Bay, Jan.
Bay: Pantone PMS 300
Staghorn sumac berries against the water: Pantone PMS 186
Rugged, determined stubs of apple tree twigs make me think of penguins huddled together in winter, or the lone horse standing still in a bleak field peering out only through eyelashes of tight-pressed lids: "I will get through this."
Bright sun.
A cloud of government-check-cigarette smoke from the chain smoker in the wheelchair at the edge of the beach. Baked beans. Diesel fuel, plowing the last edges of the trail. A bufflehead dips into the blue paint.
