Socs and the City 2

Yeah, I'm using that title yet again. Just because I can't think of one...and hell, I AM in the city anyway.

New York is damp, dreary and cold today....and my mood is just as terrible. Wow, so I guess I'm really establishing some sort of vibe with Manhattan already?

Probably not.

In an attempt to lift up my dour mood, I've utilized my stolen wi-fi and did an entire round of visiting the sites I frequent. YES, WHILE IN THE OFFICE! So sue me! I found a message on Friendster Bulletin Board about an Advertising slogan generator using any word you give it...and they were suggesting using your name. So why the hell not?

Below are the authentic first five slogans it gave me...gotta admit, it made me forget my bad mood for a bit.


  1. Its the Socs you can See.
  2. Nobody does it like Socs.
  3. The Loudest Noise comes from the Electric Socs.
  4. Give a Meal Socs-Appeal.
  5. Tonight, Let it be Socs.
Uhm. Yeah.

They dont make sense, but then again, most things dont. So this is still within the bounds of what is (or should be) considered "normal".

duh.

I've been making excuses.

and hiding the fact that this isnt really turning out the way I had thought it would.
I guess when one thing's going well, something else has to give.


Still, I have to try and snap out of this.

Socs and the City (was: getting back on track)

I've been idle (photo-wise) enough.
So I decided to step out last Saturday, since the weather is better than it has been...certainly friendlier to a tropical creature like me. The destination: Downtown Manhattan....WTC site, NY City Hall and the Brooklyn Bridge. I think my lack of photo activity in the past month shows in the photos...oh well. I will keep working on them. Like I always do. For now, I hope you guys like 'em :)
