14 hours later and my mentions are still full of angry treatises about badly behaved cyclists. Bike lanes are not a reward for good cyclist behavior! They are infrastructure proven to make cities safer for ALL ROAD USERS. Whatever way cyclists have wronged you is irrelevant to the discussion!

‘Good photography isn’t about Zone Printing or any other Ansel Adams nonsense. It’s just about seeing. You either see or you don’t see. The rest is academic. Photography is simply a function of noticing things. Nothing more.’ Elliott Erwitt, New York, 1992. Photo Peter Adams.

President of baseball operations for the Cleveland Guardians when he asked what qualities he looks for in hiring? Relentless curiosity. I love that and completely agree and would take it further… The best quality for anyone in any business or even personal relationships is relentless curiosity

The 4th of July has felt weird for a while - doesn't seem like we've been doing a very good job of being celebration-worthy as a nation. But we can at least celebrate community. The neighborhood where I grew up has been holding a parade for 75+ years, these are from last year.
