I wouldn’t normally post up a ‘guy in the sky’ photo, but in this case I’ll make an exception. I spied this photo of Davy Zyw of Britain rocking an old Agent in the London Frieze festival in one of the NY Times photo blogs, and now you can, too.
Here’s some shots from the week-end. We found a spot in the forest and set up a mini rail. I past a lot of time there last week-end with some friends. Here’s a video. Check it out.

The thread continues with Ian McKaye references (looking for people who would call Dylan out) et al…but eventually lands here and I paraphrase my buddy Grant…
“I went searching the interweb for the white whale – the celebrity who knew when to quit, who did quit, and who stayed gone… These were the suggestions:
Who’d we miss?
