Wed night

I am going to be in Cinci next week, probably Wed thru Fri, we'll see.

May go out in a bit, hang out for a while. Way too awake to stay home.

Game

Nice Champions League game tonight, Barcelona beat Chelsea. The second half was much better than the first. Second leg game in 2 weeks. Same for Madrid.


Wed

Watched the Real Madrid Champions League game, they lost to Arsenal, didn't play very well.

Idol was on today. It was the girls performances. Paris, Lisa and Kathy blew everybody else away in my opinion, not even close. The show is now on wide-screen HD, looks stunning, incredibly details and rich color saturation. I know the production costs are a bit more - I read about 30% more - but I can't wait until all programming is HD. Can't watch a regular channel anymore.

I guess I'd better go to sleep soon, getting late.

Clothes

I keep thinking it's Sunday, but it's obviously not. Since I worked on Saturday and yesterday, today feels odd.

I stopped by the Lacoste store on Madison and 56th St on my way back from running some errands. Browsed around for a while and ended up buying some spring clothes: 2 Retro Fitted polos, 2 long sleeve polos and 1 sweater. All quite nice and colorful



This brand was popular growing up. Then it disappeared. But it's back. People in the US tend to confuse it with Izod. Izod is a premium clothing company that offers very similar products to Lacoste. In fact, Izod had a contract with Lacoste until the mid-1990s that gave it the rights to produce the Lacoste clothing line in the United States. Hence the confusion. The line of clothing was known as "Izod Lacoste."

NY snow pics

So, here are a handful of pics from last weekend's snow storm:



This particular one is taken from my office, in the evening, with the camara in manual mode, ISO 50, turning off the flash, auto-shot mode, on an improvised platform looking out the window into the Meat Packing district.
