My Favorite Photo + Milestone
(Photos by Bald Punk – click twice to fully enlarge) I wish I had more time for photography. Most of the photos are taken when I’m on the move, rushing to one place or another. The above photo is my favorite at the moment. It’s on the Morningside Road side of Saint John the Divine. Oh!!! [...]
Eglise de Notre Dame
(Photos by Bald Punk – Click twice to fully enlarge) I took these pics of Eglise de Notre Dame on the same day I took those of the Cathedral Church of Saint John the Divine. Notre Dame is on Morningside Drive and West 114th Street. Of the churches I’ve been inside in NYC, it’s one of [...]

(Photo by Bald Punk – Old Stone House, South Brooklyn) For the first and hopefully last time, the other day I met a man who called himself the Memory Giver. It’s a silly way to refer to oneself. Though true to his name, he did something to me, and now I can recall a scene that is frighteningly real, [...]
Cathedral Church of Saint John the Divine
(Photos by Bald Punk) I spent the day in church. First we went to Notre Dame on Morningside Drive, and then around the block to Saint John the Divine. I took a few pics of Notre Dame Church and will post them another time. It is very beautiful. For now, here’s St. John the Divine. [...]

(Photos by Bald Punk – Bryant Park) The other evening I was in Bryant Park listening to my iPod and daydreaming. I had a venti iced-coffee from the Starbucks that’s across the street on 42nd and 6th Ave. I’m not embarrassed to admit that when I chill like that my brain waves are probably close to nil. If someone [...]
Late Afternoon
(Photos by Bald Punk) I will post some more photos in this series tonight and tomorrow. I also will put up the next post in the series below either Saturday or Sunday. Carrie Robbins channels a Revolutionary War Soldier Hiding Behind Coltrane — If I had to describe my life in one word right now, [...]
Bryant Park
(Photos by Bald Punk) Bryant Park is a great place to chill. Situated behind the New York Public Library’s main branch on 42nd Street, it packs about the most park experience per-square-foot in all NYC. There’s lots of places to sit, and a lawn where you can sunbathe and where they show movies on summer nights. Make sure to [...]
Hiding Behind Coltrane

(Photos by Bald Punk – Brooklyn Museum - Les Bourgeois de Calais by Auguste Rodin) I’m in trouble. Big trouble. The only reason no one knows about it is because I’ve been hiding behind John Coltrane . . . Carrie Robbins just left our apartment. I have no idea how she found us. I guess since she’s [...]
Various NYC Photos
(Photos by Bald Punk – Brooklyn Museum) I’m in deep trouble. Tomorrow I promise to tell you about it. The post will follow up on this one: Carrie Robbins channels a Revolutionary War Soldier. I’m wiped out. Tuckered out, too. Here are my STORIES and PHOTOS
J. P. Morgan Building
(Photos by Bald Punk – click twice to fully enlarge) I remember years ago going to this great bar in the building at 14 Wall Street(one photo below). It was on the 31st floor and used to be J.P. Morgan’s apartment. He was the Bill Gates of his day. I think the bar was also a French restaurant. It’s since gone [...]
