This is apparently one of the rarest post boxes in the world. There are only 2 in Bath (or the world, i can't remember). I took this picture from the top of a speeding double decker so i had to use a fast shutter speed.
Because of the speed of the bus I didn't have enough time to compose the shot.

Eleven years ago today I learned of the terrorist attacks like most everyone else...on tv. Was scheduled to go to work at 2 but they called and told me not to come in until 6 as we were going to minimal staffing. Showed up and went through three different ID checks before heading to the tower alone. There was a ramp full of exotic planes from the sudden grounding earlier in the day... and not a soul in the air.
One of the weirdest experiences of my career. The skies tonight were almost exactly as I remember that evening.
Can't have a 365 without the main man of Love. Mr. Hugh Heffner! Just saw my mom's copy of his Marylyn Monroe Playboy issue. When looking it up on E bay just to see a net worth, I was shocked to see it was only selling for around 25-60 dollars. Although if you had a signature someone wanted to get rid of theirs for 8 grand.

Today we got free passes for Madame Tussaudes Wax Museum at the Venetian. Jenna Jamison was in the next alley down and we got a couple ones of Corey fondling her. =P Lindsay Lohan was there too which was fun to play with her addictions. Great place to check out if you like snapping away at no time limit

9 Things About Me
January 9, 2010
well, the weekend isn't so great.
I didn't end up doing anything last night.
I was really sad..
I'm sooo sick of high school and the stupid girls that
bring on drama. and the stupid boys that don't care
or break girls hearts.
Anyway my brain feels like its shut off and there is nothing going on. im numb. confused.
hopefully tonight will be better.
Chaque jour une nouvelle bande-dessinée de ma collection personnelle illustrée par quelques planches.
Jour 18, aujourd'hui: "Les Angoisses d'Angus" (1989) d'Angus Mc Kie aux éditions Comics USA.
Dessins cartoonesques inspirés des dessins animés américains, utilisation d'expressions délirantes pour ses personnages, incrustation d'images style photo, cases "empilées" (certaines sont plus larges que d'autres et sortent dans la bordure), les styles graphiques sont aussi variés que les variations de narations entre les différentes histoires plus ou moins courtes que recèle cet album. Un moment de pur plaisir.
Angus McKie (né en juillet 1951 à Newcastle upon Tyne) est un coloriste de bande dessinée et illustrateur britannique. Il a obtenu en 1995 le Prix Eisner du meilleur coloriste pour "Martha Washington Goes to War". Il est surtout connu pour ses illustrations de S.F dans des nombreux magazines et livres dans les années 80/90.
The Usual Suspects:
* Black Tunic, Old Navy, $15
* Yellow Skirt, Alloy, $9.99
* Black Booties, Torrid, $38
The Accomplice:
None, the skirt needed no help standing out LOL
I wore this on our anniversary...My husband needed some time to get used to the combination of the bright yellow skirt with my ultra-reflective white legs, but in the end, he really liked the outfit overall ;)

VoR 2-6-2T No.9 "Prince of Wales", notionally rebuilt at GWR Swindon Works 1923 from a 1902 Davies & Metcalf of Romily loco (No.2 "Prince of Wales", GWR No.1213) but in reality a new engine. The other original loco (No.1 "Edward VII") was scrapped in 1935. The photo shows No.9 in the BR Rail Blue livery with the double arrow symbol - completely incongruous for a narrow gauge steam engine! At Aberystwyth Shed yard, Vale of Rheidol Railway, 06/72. Scanned photograph taken with a Kowa SET.
On Wednesday, I visited the 9/11 Memorial. Being there felt so sad, so weird, so unable to be put into words. It's so hard to describe the feeling as you stand in front of the waterfalls in the tower footprints. Standing in front of them for the first time took my breath away and gave me goosebumps.
I watched many of those who lost someone make a rubbing of that person's name on a strip of paper using crayons. I think for many, this is so very important. It's the first *thing* that they've been able to hold and take with them, and sort of connect them to what happened that day. It's an entire lifetime of memories of that person etched in letters. Something that they can keep forever.

Here's a gorgeous canary yellow Fiat X1/9, the mid-engined sports car that inspired the Pontiac Fiero and Toyota MR2 and possibly kept Fiat in business in the United States for as long as it was.
Introduced in 1972 and produced until 1989, the Bertone-styled X1/9 was meant to bring mid-engined sports cars to the masses, much like the Fiero attempted to do over a decade later. Available with either a 1.3-liter or 1.5-liter engine, the X1/9 delivered capable performance and handling but, being a Fiat, was prone to rust. In addition, design flaws allowed the engine to overheat and the transmission to wear out.
This X1/9 was photographed at the same garage I photographed the 500 sedan at. I have another rare Italian car on tap coming soon.
It's an honor to be living in the city now and an even cooler experience to be here on september 11th. Never forget.
9/100: Ellie. This picture is #9 in my 100 strangers project. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at the 100 Strangers Flickr Group page
Ellie was canvassing for support for the Bee Cause for Friends of the Earth in Gloucester city centre. The bee population has halved in Ellie’s twenty year lifetime and you can find out more and obtain a ‘Bee Saver Kit’ on their website. She lives in Bristol but travels all over the South West of England in her role with Friends of the Earth. Ellie actually volunteered to have her photo taken so I was more than happy to oblige and in exchange give her the opportunity to tell me about the bee decline.
I explained about the 100 Strangers and gave her a card and pointed out how to contact me if she wanted a copy. Ellie is short for Eloise – named after the song by the Damned – her dad was a big fan. She also said her dad was a keen photographer and thought he was on Flickr, so hopefully he may see his daughter’s portrait.
Thank you Ellie for the friendly conversation and for agreeing to be my ninth stranger - it was good meeting you.
