while in berlin, eben SNAPPED A PHOTO OF THE O.G. COWBOYZ ‘N’ POODLES!, where jessica and i broke silence on our last euro trip together. Two dazzle-eyed vegetarians lucky for doner, we came home with a taste for gauloises blondes and too many photos of the love parade’s furry ass-chaps on the alexanderplatz. But before any of that, I wrote it in the “memo” box on the cover of my jrnl early on in the trip, “cowboyz n poodles,” before I filled it up with our adventures–before the castle mirage of barcelona stretched out from the eurail, before we stumbled into paris on bastille day after a night of meeting americans we should’ve already known, before rome’s water crept onto its cobble streets (and into the italian nat’l b-boy championships?). “cowboyz n poodles,” it was a start, it was the feeling of being sideways, it was something i would unravel. and then, and then, i started this blog. so eben, he took a photo of the original COWBOYZ N POODLES and that will become part of the story too.
