Happy Labor Day!

Posted by Imagery Photography on

Now that I am retired, I think I have a deeper appreciation of those who labor. Of course I worked for a long time and still do creative work every day, but there is work and then there is labor.

I have also done some labor in my time. I worked in a commercial bakery. I worked in supermarkets. I was a cab driver. I have done photography inside nuclear reactors, steel mills and paper mills. I understand what labor is and to all of you who labor…thanks and enjoy your day!

Happy Independence Day!

Posted by Imagery Photography on

I am so fascinated with American’s insatiable appetite for Britain and the royal family and apparent disdain for French culture. Shouldn’t it be the other way around? Without the help of the French we would have never defeated the British and won our independence. So this year when you fire up the BBQ have a nice red wine with your burger and say vive la France!

Run for Your Lives!

Posted by Imagery Photography on

Tomorrow we are shipping up to Boston to see family and friends and enjoy a great meal. However, it is not so great for these guys! There is no hunting where we live so these guys are safe. Most of us will eat farm raised turkey’s tomorrow or maybe Tofurkey. Still in the spirit of the Native Americans we stole this land from, I want to thank these turkeys for giving their lives so we can provide sustenance at our family gatherings. I also want to give thanks for my family and friends, this wonderful country and those who defend it and to my increasingly larger number of fans who follow and read this blog. Have a great holiday!

Run for Your Lives!

Upping the Ante for A Jewish Christmas

Posted by Imagery Photography on

It can be tough being a Jew around Christmas time unless you have a Christmas Family. I was fortunate growing up and we always had a family that we hung out with at Christmas. We would get a couple of gifts, and give some, share in the meal and have a while with a brightly lit Christmas tree. However, it is well known that if you don’t have a Christmas family then you can do two things on Christmas if you are Jewish.

1) Attend the massive Jewish meeting to discuss how we will control the media for yet another year.
2) Go to a movie and eat Chinese food.

It used to be when I was a kid everything was closed on Christmas, even gas stations. Not any more. We decided this year to up the ante and instill a new tradition by going gambling and eating in a signature restaurant so we are off to Atlantic City to revel in the new Revel Resort. So I won’t be posting for a while and if I win BIG, maybe a long while. Whatever you do, have a great Christmas. That’s right I am Jewish but can still wish everybody a Merry Christmas.
