Stay Free! is moving. Seriously. (Or, Goodbye 390 Butler, part II)

I feel like I've been planning on moving, talking about moving, and packing for moving forever... but now it's finally happening. This weekend, Stay Free! and I are leaving Park Slope for Prospect Lefferts. For those keeping track, my stay.free@verizon.net email will no longer work, but you can reach me here.

And now I'm going to indulge myself in posting a few more of the pictures that I kept papered on the bathroom walls for the past 10 or so years.

GirlwithgunThe Harvard Lampoon created an entire magazine parodying LIFE in the 1960s (I think), which is where I got this awesome photo.

Pie I clipped this out of an old Ladies Home Journal, thinking I'd use these pies on a client's web site. Some day, maybe.

Everydaymakemoney_1Clipped from Advertising Age.

M&M/Mars has gotten a lot of recent media coverage for its purportedly scientific studies showing that chocolate is good for your heart... but M&M/Mars has been making misleading health claims about chocolate for years. Here is a copy of flyer they sent out to millions of public school children.

When I worked at Matador Records, I thought it'd be funny to do a fake socially responsible marketing campaign, so I made this sign and then went around town and asked random people to pose with it. This photo was my favorite.

Here I am in the bathroom of the Matador office, circa 1998, demonstrating nasal irrigation.
