Six to Eight Feet / Eyes and Ears

The Reader/Web Surfer/Fellow Blogger sat aghast, appalled, contemptuous, and distraught. Cheated! Lied to! Strung along like a...like a...like a kite in the wind! Promises had been made! The Trusted Word had been given!

Where were the posts on New York City????

The posts, in their most complete form, sat warm and tidy on the hard drive of SeanEO's Acer Aspire One laptop. Some of them were done, but some of them were too done. Parts were lengthy. Parts were barren of detail. Parts were unfathomably boring. And locked away on another hard drive, a hard drive that had ceased to work mere days before this posting, were the majority of the pictures associated with said trip. But there was a glimmer of hope. A new enclosure for the hard drive was on its way up to Alaska. With any luck, this would make the hard drive readable once again, and maybe, just maybe, the posts on New York City could be fleshed out in the way they had been intended. This is not the recognized death of the hard drive or the New York City posts, it is merely an explanation for the delay and, if I may be so bold, a horrible segway to posting these two videos.

The first one is a foot battle game Niki and I made up standing outside the mercantile store while waiting for the shuttle bus. As far as I can tell (we never discussed the rules or anything), you want to tap the other person's foot without them tapping your foot. Either foot. This video is mainly for visual content.

The second one is a lone saxophone player's song in a New York City subway station. It's not much to look at but it's the sound that counts. This video is mainly for audio content.





Enjoy!
