A gaggle of friends whose ties are traced back to the same small town in upstate NY. Photography, humor, music and good times abound.

Do you like Bowie (Bouie) in your Funk? 



Welcome back to the Mixtape Po-gram, my friends. I know it's been awhile, as we've been busy with this and that, but it is summertime -- and the mixin' is easy. A plethora of music has found it's way onto my hard drive, and I can't help but share with the masses. And to celebrate, I've started to put Goldie's birthday present for me to good use -- a new domain.

It's not up and running fully yet, but for now you can peep a leep at an early version of ShuffleThis.com -- a place where we can put mixtapes, playlists, etc., all for our enjoyment in this iPod-centric world. I've also added some cover art to each of the past few mixes, so be sure to check them out if you haven't already. And without further ado:

With the Liner Notes, Etc. to be found at the early version of ShuffleThis.com!

It Doesn't Make It Alright. 


Saw 'The Pillowman' tonight, and it was one of the best theatre experiences I've had. Gotta go with Brantley, and reccomend that if you're planning on going out and seeing one show on the Great White Way this year, make it 'The Pillowman' while you still can. One second you're laughing, the next second you're horrified, but the whole time it's captivating and challenging -- even if you're emotions are going to be all over the place for hours afterwards. But, then again, maybe that's just me.

As I get back some of my free time, I'm working on a new bunch of MixTapes for everyone. I have a few in their infancy stage right now, so sit tight, and some lil' ones will be birthed right into your earholes. Woof. Posted by Hello

Ooookaaaay, Ooooookaaaaaay!!!! 


For all to celebrate, near and far, we here bequeath upon you the loyal readers, a gallery of the now-legendary Boone-Teng Wedding!!! Digital snaps by the dutiful Diesel and the foppish Frants, here for your viewing enjoyment. Plus, one special little treat... So everyone may take a ride on Space Mountain. Posted by Hello



One second you're the king...


The next second, you're a corpse...

That's how we roll in this town. Busy times abound in the summertime, but hopefully we'll slow it up so that we can have some fun. Namely, I'm hoping to get a lil' free time to make another MixTape for everyone, but no promises.

Daddy has to spend some time working on his tan and swimming in the pool.

Lord of the Smithwicks 

Firstly, a Happy Wookie Life-Day to Jedi Klove, my brother from another mother. Hope you had fun a-rocking at the crazy "Wonder of the World" out there in the desert.

For the rest of you non-Life-Dayers: I'm sure many of you are freaking out thanks to the strange dissapearance of the messageboard. Well, you should freak out. It seems that EZ-Board, the folks that host ours (and 60,000 others) was hit by a *gasp* hacker. They're doing their best to try and get us up and running, and with (hopefully) as much of our stuff intact as possible.

But we won't know how much damage was done until all is restored. You'll just have to spend your day at work doing, uh, work.

Pull out, guys, you can't do any more good back there.
