More than any other time in history, mankind faces a crossroads. One path leads to despair and utter hopelessness. The other, to total extinction. Let us pray we have the wisdom to choose correctly.

It’s Diwali 2008, and the candles are burning brightly.

My partner and I decided to burn 5 based on a combination of ages.

46 + 40 = 86 -  8+6 = 14 - 1+4 = 5

May All Your Days Be Filled With Light, Love & Laughter

Someone built a treehouse in Madison Square Park. Too bad there was no ladder attached, otherwise there would be some aerial shots in this post.

Perhaps the chubby squirrel in the first picture will turn it into penthouse housing ;)

Speaking of housing here’s The Flatiron Building

“Of all the questions which can come before this nation…there is none which compares in importance with the great central task of leaving this land even a better land for our descendants than it is for us.”

Nothing says salvation more than a ten foot high red neon cross on top of a church. I’ve seen two of them on this ride so far.

There’s 10 people in this subway car. Four are talking on cell phones, One is sipping coffee, another yawning loudly and I’m blogging.

The train is approaching Manhattan – the lights against the night sky never fail to uplift me.

I’ve been posting so many pics lately; when I get home I’m writing a big catch up post. For now this mobile post will do.

The train has submerged. All the signal is gone. The phone users are all switching to handheld games and Ipods to entertain as we rumble thrrough dark tunnels.

My phones have built in music players, but I’ve never used them.

The girl to my right has a faraway look in her eyes. The Ipods songs are taking her to a place she wants to be.

Soon this train will take me where I want to be – home.

Caio for now.
