I hope you (all 3 of you) have a wonderful 2011 that’s better than 2010 in every way. In case you’re wondering, since I last posted I also: grew a beard moved to Switzerland: I’m now working for Google in Zürich got a significantly better looking flatmate (sorry, Carlo :P) Manhattan, entrance to South Ferry subway station. Returning from a tour of Liberty and Coney islands, I stop to take a photo of a group of street performers taking a break between acts. One of them asks me something I can’t quite hear, I get closer and ask him to repeat. He says: “got that [...] Needing a break from what has become an all too mundane Ireland, I found an excuse to take a vacation and spent the better part of yesterday island hopping. How so?
