    Gee whiz! A casual Friday homage to tar beach. Yes that’s we called it and it was exactly that in my Greenwich village apartment. But yours is quite nice. And although the cacophonous NYC streets were meant as a contrast, I remember with horrors taking the subway (no air conditioning) from 14th st to 42nd in a suit. I rode between the cars and got covered with soot. So it went.

    But thanks for the episode and (as usual) the RB staff - Video, Music Editing was superb. Consider this episode deserves my phony award … i.e. it gets downloaded to my phone (like several others).

    Have a good weekend on Tar Beach or other nice places North, East or West. (OK South too.)

  2. Good that you put on sun screen. And helped to protect your face with a big floppy hat. Skin cancer is no joke. Enjoy life and use sun screen.

    1. I could not agree More, sir!
      Something like this would be Much more appropriate!:



      ***A Lady with her ankles uncovered in public would be simply SCANDALOUS! -even in the summertime heat.
      We cannot have our intrepid host-ess looking like some calypsoid Sea-Nymph, Mermaid, Siren, River-Witch or Venus of Willendorf!!!!
      -Good Day to you!

      postscript:(-though if you ask me, I do say the one on the left is a bit wanton-looking already! ;) )

    I really liked the juxtaposition between the lazy summer afternoon and the busy city.

    Good thing today’s videos are smart and full of hi-tech tricks cause the music I hear sounds like shit.

        Googling around “Crotch grab” has plenty of references but it is part of hip hop culture. Uhmm do you think your 3 year old is expressing very early hip hopism?

      I am sorry you don’t like African American hip hop. I assume it’s a travesty of your musical consciousness. I hope it is not based on a rural American white perspective.

      FWIW (For what it’s worth) I think the videos you post are shit and I never (well maybe sometimes) watch them past 30 seconds.

      1. Here’s a peek into my musical consciousness, it involves people who know how to play a fucking instrument not their scrotum.
