FROM June 15, 2005

Ms. Laura Sinagra (that is MIZ) on Rize. Good on ya, madame. Still would've liked explanation in film re: African dance footage interspliced w/krumping (the form was beautiful, he would have done better to add commentary tho i understand that's not what we get from La Chappelle) but Laura gets snaps and safety pins for that and for, you know, just being generally amazing.
And from the heart, Jalylah Burrell is also amazing.

The "unforgiving June heat spike" (so said the Times) has wafted away and in the aftermath, New York City alternately smells like a urinal, Manu Ginobili's locker room, or steak. I dumpstered another painting off 72nd and West End, though, this one of paisley peacocks done IN NEON, picked up off a pile of trash, trucked it an hour back to Brooklyn WHILST tapdancing in canary yellow mary janes on the 2 train the whole way. For serious. Sorry, Rob Brezny, you're no longer getting ANY of my money. Fingers crossed.
