(formerly Theatre of the Temporary) The world is full of curiosities and absurdities. Sometimes we even happen to have a camera handy to document them. Here are some that I've recorded.

--Things that go Bump in the Subway:
New York City Transit's solution to the problem of train operators trying to extend the Nostrand Avenue subway tunnel.

--Things that go KRUNCH! in the River:
A lucky encounter with a tugboat and barge. Not so lucky for the barge. Or the tugboat's crew for that matter.

--Sega's Secret Weapon?:
"Spy photo" of a future weapon in the videogame wars.

--The Unfortunate Triumverate:
Three businesses. One corner. Humor only Beavis and Butthead would love.

--"Engrish" as a Second Language:
What happens when you don't check the translation of your business name

--Legal Briefs
Endless ads for personal injury law firms getting you down? Well you may not want to see this..

--"Engrish", Part Deux:
Another business who didn't consider what their name sounds like in English

--Playground to Heaven:
An odd name for a playground

--Spend, Spend, Spend:
So, that's why I keep getting all these credit offers
